Sergio Busquets, 37, will retire with Inter Miami at the end of the MLS season after nearly two decades orchestrating play from midfield and winning a World Cup. He plans to take a sabbatical immediately after his playing career to enjoy downtime with his family, spend time with his children, travel, and view football from a different perspective. He intends to pursue coaching in the future and may enroll in coaching courses after about a year and a half off. No definitive decision has been made on where to begin a managerial career, and he remains focused on the current season.
"I want to enjoy some downtime with my family, have time for them and for myself. I want to spend time with my children, watch them grow, travel more, be with my wife, and watch football from a different perspective. Then in the future, we'll see. In theory, yes, I would like to coach, but for now, I want to focus on the present because there's still a long way to go."
"I think in the future I would [like to manage], yes. But for now, I'd like to take a sabbatical. It's been many years without almost any weekends off — like any footballer — but obviously playing for the national team means having even less time, despite it offering you something extra."
