Five-time Wrestling Champion Zlateva Ends Career

Sofia, January 18 (BTA) - Five-time world wrestling champion Stanka Zlateva announced an end to her career because of an injury.

Zlateva told journalists that a severe back pain, which she has had for years, does not allow her to go ahead.

Zlateva, who is a two-time Olympic vice champion, felt pain already before the 2015 European Games in Baku.

However, Zlateva does not part ultimately with wrestling. The Bulgarian Wrestling Federation has proposed her to coach the junior women's team.
