One of the most experienced and beloved football players in Ludogorets - Cicinho, ended his career at the club. The eleven-time champions sold the right-back to Brazilian Bahia on Thursday after successful negotiations and the player agreeing personal terms. Neucino De Jesus Gusmao, as the Brazilian's full name is, is a seven-time champion of Bulgaria and a four-time winner of the Super Cup. He leaves Ludogorets after 245 games played, 6 goals and 24 assists in all official competitions within 7 years. There are also seven matches for the Bulgarian national team.
"I spent my best years in Ludogorets. I leave many friends in Razgrad. I'm a little sad, but that's how it is in football and sports. I'm not leaving forever. We'll see each other again," commented Cicinho.
Cicinho, thank you for everything you did for Ludogorets. Thank you for the emotions at the stadiums in Bulgaria and Europe. Thank you for the unforgettable evenings and sleepless nights! You remain forever in our hearts. We say goodbyu, but not forever. Because the doors of Ludogorets will always be wide open for you!
