Elis Manolova, a wrestler of the Azerbaijani national team, has finished her career.
İdman.biz reports that the Azerbaijan Wrestling Federation has released information about this.
The experienced wrestler told the press service of the organization that when looking back, there were so many competitions and medals that it is impossible not to be emotional: "Of course, I would like to wrestle in another Olympic cycle. But years of injuries prevent me from wrestling. I want to pass on the experience I have gained so far to young people as a coach. I am very happy to have wrestled for Azerbaijan. I consider Azerbaijan my second home. I have very good memories in this country. I will miss everyone. I will come to Baku again. I am grateful to the Azerbaijan Wrestling Federation. I'm glad you accepted me into your ranks. I was also a part of you. Raising the Azerbaijani flag has always been a great pride. From now on, I will support all Azerbaijani wrestlers."
It should be noted that Elis, who finished her career at the age of 29, won the Islamic Solidarity Games in 2017. Two years later, Manolova, who won the title of European Champion and world third place, won 5 medals (1 gold, 3 silver, 1 bronze) in continental championships among adults.
