Former Spain and Liverpool forward Fernando Torres is all set to play the last match of his professional career today, August 23 in a Japanese first division clash between Sagan Tasu and Vissel Kobe, a club parading his former Spain teammates Andres Iniesta and David Villa.
After a career that saw him skipper Atletico Madrid and nearly drag Liverpool to that elusive Premier League title, Fernando Torres will today hang his football boots as a professional player at the age of 35.

A shame he didn't get to play in today's Liverpool team. His form in 2008 with mane Salah and firmino would be terrifying

At his peak when playing for Liverpool he was a joy to watch.

LFC Torres was the best Torres. Will never forget how he humiliated Vidic at Old Trafford and left him on his backside.
