Miroslav Klose, the all-time World Cup top scorer, has retired from international football, the German football federation announced Monday.
The 36-year old Lazio striker leaves the German national team as a World Cup winner after last month helping Joachim Loew’s side to their first global crown since 1990 when they defeated Argentina 1-0 in the Rio-hosted final.
He picked up his 16th goal, in what was his fourth World Cup, to surpass Brazilian Ronaldo as the tournament’s leading scorer.
