LaLiga: 19-year-Old Real Madrid Star, Cucalon Retires From Football (Photo)

Real Madrid youngster Marc Cucalon has retired from football.
He retired at the age of 19 after falling victim to a rare infection in 2022.
This is according to Sportskeeda.
Cucalon, born in Zaragoza, would not continue playing football after a two-year battle with the bacterial infection in his knee.
The midfielder was captain of the club’s Juvenil A team in 2022 and played alongside the now-Como star Nico Paz in the academy.
Recall that Cucalon suffered a ruptured ACL following a heavy tackle when Los Blancos’ U-19 team faced Celtic in the UEFA Youth League in Glasgow, Scotland in September 2022.
He was 17 years old then, but never returned to a football pitch afterwards.
He underwent surgery to fix the problem, only for bacteria to infiltrate the cartilage used to replace the ACL during the surgery.
This led to a rare infection, which has prevented the midfielder from carrying out any physical exercise on his knee since then.
Cucalon was very highly rated in La Fabrica, where his technical qualities on the ball saw him likened to Xabi Alonso.

Telegram CEO, Pavel Durov Offering Free IVF To Women Willing To Use His Sp3rm To Have A Baby

The CEO of Telegram, Pavel Durov is offering free In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) treatments to women willing to use his sp3rm.

His offer is an effort to help women struggling with infertility.

Apart from offering sp3rm, Durov would also be paying for all IVF procedures through his partnership with the Altravita fertility clinic.

“We are happy to offer you a unique opportunity! Only in our clinic can you undergo IVF for free, using Pavel Durov’s sp3rm-one of the most famous and successful entrepreneurs of our time,” a message on Altravita’s website reads.

The clinic has pledged to offer top-tier care, working with some of the leading specialists in reproductive health and using state-of-the-art technology to ensure the best possible outcomes.

The process for women wishing to participate is simple but selective. Interested individuals can reach out to Altravita to schedule an initial consultation.

Earlier, in a post on Telegram, the CEO disclosed he fathered “over 100 biological kids” over 15 years.

“I was just told that I have over 100 biological kids. How is this possible for a guy who has never been married and prefers to live alone?” he wrote.

He recounted the story of how a friend first approached him for a sp3rm donation 15 years ago.

“He said that he and his wife couldn’t have kids due to a fertility issue and asked me to donate sp3rm at a clinic for them to have a baby,
” said Pavel, adding that though he initially laughed it off, he realised later that his friend was serious.

Eventually, he agreed, setting in motion a series of donations that would go on to impact many families.

He wrote, “Fast forward to 2024, my past donating activity has helped over a hundred couples in 12 countries to have kids. Moreover, many years after I stopped being a donor, at least one IVF clinic still has my frozen sp3rm available for anonymous use by families who want to have kids.”

“The shortage of healthy sp3rm has become an increasingly serious issue worldwide, and I’m proud that I did my part to help alleviate it,” Durov added.
