Alberto Aquilani, who played for Italy as well as clubs including Roma, Liverpool, Juventus and Fiorentina, has retired.
The 34-year-old midfielder is hanging up his boots after leaving Las Palmas at the end of the 2017-18 season.
Aquilani, who flopped in an ill-fated Premier League spell at Anfield, played 38 times for Italy and will not seek another club after a year out of the game.
"After a period of reflection, I think the time has come to hang the shoes on that nail that we all hate," he wrote on Instagram.
