The 37-year-old Tuesday signed a multi-year contract with the Cosmos that now play in the second tier North American Soccer League, reports.

He will also act as technical director for the club’s youth academy.

“I believe in this club’s vision and I’m excited to be a part of that,” Raul said. “I have a contract for two years. I will try to play those two years, but it might be one, maybe two, maybe even three years.”

During Raul’s 16-year spell at Real, he won six Spanish La Liga titles, four Spanish Super Cups, and three  crowns.

The former Spain striker has scored 323 goals in 741 matches before moving to Schalke in 2010 and Doha club Al Saad two years later.

Sunil Gavaskar gives his opinion of GT allrounder Rahul Tewatia

The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.

Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.

Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs.

Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
