Less than a month ago Samir Nasri announced his retirement from football. Today he has returned to the playing fields to play the “Match des Héros”, a charity match with former footballers who have faced Olympique de Marseille against a Unicef team. But the image in which Nasri has been seen does not resemble that of a player who has just retired. In a few weeks, the Frenchman has appeared overweight.
It is common to see some former players who are in bad shape after retiring. By leaving football they also abandon the obligation to follow a strict diet and train daily. However, Nasri’s form has attracted attention because at the end of September, that is, less than a month ago, he announced his retirement.

The match ended 7-4 in favor of Marseille and Drogba scored a hat-trick. Players such as Pirès, Lehmann, Carvalho, Abidal and Trezeguet, among other stars, have also been seen on the pitch again.
