He was the best in the world and Messi's idol, now he raises cows and is looking for work

It is not the first case of a footballer who ends up taking an extraordinary turn in his life to go on to dedicate himself to something completely different. But this time we are talking about a legend of the sport and that he knew how to be a player among the top players in the world for a decade and stood out more than in any other club in Atlético de Madrid.

The former Uruguayan soccer player and living legend of Atlético de Madrid with 107 goals for the club, Diego Forlán, was also known as the 2010 FIFA World Cup Golden Ball. However, all that was in the past, since he used a portion of the millions raised during his soccer career to build a 500-hectare estate to raise cattle and plant crops.

It is seen that Cachavacha Forlán had a hidden passion for cattle that was unknown to the world and that only came to light this year. Obviously we are talking about an investment, since everything he raises and produces in his barn will later be marketed and he will make an income for his personal life.

Will Forlán return to Atlético de Madrid?

Logically, the only way for Diego Forlán to return to Atlético de Madrid is to do it as a coach or leader, although he has not commented on it at the moment or has expressed any intention of launching into any of those projects. So the answer is no, at least not at the moment.
