Seeing Daniel Agger's Retirement: Manage The Sewer System And Become A  Tattoo Artist

Former Danish defender and current head coach at HB Koge has a background in tattooing and is a member of Tattoodo, a global powerhouse in the industry.

However, Agger had other plans for his wealth and could afford to invest in instead.

Agger, who is now 38 years old, invested £450,000 in a Danish sewage system management firm in 2013 when he founded KloAgger.

Then how did they decide on the moniker? ‘Agger toilet’ is the literal translation of KloAgger.

The day-to-day operations are overseen by Agger’s younger brother Marco and their mutual friend Rune Rasmussen, although Agger is often involved with the firm as well.

Covered ink The tattoos pique Agger’s attention more.

He began his career at the age of fifteen as a youth player for the Danish club Brondby, where he remained until the end of his career.

According to an interview that Agger gave on Tattoodo’s website, “I was about 15 and on a school trip to Paris,”

It had never occurred to me before. It was that that my friend and I decided upon when we were shopping, and we left with it. Even now, I possess it.

However, it has been significantly enhanced with tattoos covering nearly every part of his body.

His back bears the marks of a Viking burial ground, his calves bear the symbols of love, his body is covered in Latin proverbs, and the names of his family members are carved into it.

“I see it as one piece,” the skilled tattoo artist declared. “When I speak to people I talk about my tattoo as one piece but obviously every tattoo has a story, some better than others.”

More recently, he got the famous Liverpool acronym for the song “You’ll Never Walk Alone” (YNWA) inscribed upon his knuckles.

It was timed well, Agger remarked. “I was aware I was staying, but there were a lot of rumors that another club was going to pay a lot of money to move me elsewhere.

“Sоmehоw I wаnted tо shоw thаt tо the fооtbаlling wоrld аnd this wаs а wаy I wаnted tо shоw it.”

Agger did, in fact, depart Liverpool in 2014, spending two seasons at Brondby before unexpectedly calling it quits.

Agger blames the medications he used to get through his career despite his back troubles for his eventual demise.

 

 

Talking to Jyllands-Posten, he admitted, “I have taken too many anti-inflammatories in my career.”.

I am fully aware of that, and it is terrible; but, I was able to put an end to it. I hope other athletes take this to heart, even though it won’t benefit me.

“Some people may be taking one or two less pills than you are.”

After trying his hand at management, Agger’s love for tattooing took a second seat.

In March of 2021, the Dane and his former international teammate Lars Jacobsen were named managers of HB Koge, a club in the First Division.

Last year, Agger led his team to eighth place.

But following last weekend’s 6-1 humiliation at the hands of FC Fredericia, he and his team will surely be in a rage today.
