May 20th, "Marca" said former Real Madrid and Napoli player Callehon will retire this Saturday.

This Saturday, Marbella, who plays for Callejon, will usher in a life-and-death battle against Antequela. The promotional poster released by the club clearly stated: "We fight for life and death, and we also fight for history."

Calejon joined Marbella last summer to put a perfect end to his career. He has been the leader of Marbella throughout the season, leading the team to do his best to stay in the Spanish League One (Level 3).

This season, Callehon has played 36 games, scored 10 goals and contributed 10 assists. In addition to his outstanding performance on the court, he is also a role model in the locker room. Callehon, 38, will announce his retirement after playing more than 600 professional games.

Calejon's career began with Real Madrid, where he won the Spanish Super Cup and a La Liga title, and the most glorious moment of his career was in Naples, who played 349 times for Naples, scored 82 goals and won multiple honors, including two Italian Cups and one Italian Super Cup.

Calejon is also the Spanish player with the most goals in Italian football history. He has since played for Florence and Granada, and eventually returned to his hometown of Marbella late in his career to join the hometown club.
