WUHAN David Alaba Trikot , China, Sept. 18 (Xinhua) -- China's two-time Grand Slam winner Li Na will announce retirement on Friday, a member of her agent team said on Thursday.
"Li Na will break the news via Sina Weibo on Friday morning and will meet reporters on Sept. 21 (Sunday) in Beijing," said the agent who works for the superstar's agent company, IMG Sven Ulreich Trikot , and asked not to be named.
The scheduled announcement on the Chinese equivalent to Twitter falls on the day that the Asian Games opens in Incheon, South Korea, and the Wuhan Open is inaugurated in Li's hometown.
Speculation has been rife over Li's retirement since the 32-year-old pulled out of the U.S. Open and other hard-court tournaments because of knee injuries.
Fabrice Chouquet, event director of the Wuhan Open, said he was unable to comment because the organizers had not received any formal information about Li's retirement.
"I know Li Na went to Shanghai and Germany in summer to have her knees treated. But I know nothing about whether she is retiring Thomas Muller Trikot ," said Ma Keqin, chief of Hubei Tennis Sport Management Center, a government-backed body in Li's hometown from which she still gets salaries.
"I felt sorry for her when she withdrew from the U.S. Open because her injuries must have been very serious. I know her well. She's been tough since childhood. She will not quit unless there is no alternative," said Xia Xiyao, Li's coach in the 1990s.
Li has become an icon for Chinese sports since she won the 2011 French Open, becoming the first Asian national to win a Grand Slam singles title.
She reached a career-high second in the world rankings after January's Grand Slam win, but has dropped to sixth after missing a string of tournaments. In July, Li also parted with coach Carlos Rodriguez.

ATHENS, March 4 (Xinhua) -- A marathon meeting of Greece's political leaders was held in Athens on Friday in a bid to find common ground on the handling of the refugee crisis ahead of a critical EU-Turkey summit in Brussels next Monday.
Meanwhile there are as many as 30,000 people remaining stranded in Greece, according to the latest official data, in suffocating living conditions in many cases.
Chaired by Greek President Prokopis Pavlopoulos the eight- hour talks between Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and opposition parties Jerome Boateng Trikot , with the exception of the far-Right Golden Dawn, ended with a minimum consensus achieved on a national strategy framework, despite reservations.
In a joint statement released after the meeting that was co-signed by the two-partite ruling coalition, the main opposition party and other two smaller parties, Greek political leaders called for measures to proportionally share the burden across Europe and implement agreements on refugees relocation with the EU and better monitoring of the flows in the Aegean Sea.
According to the statement that outlines Greece's position at Monday's summit Athens reiterates a pledge to fully honor its commitments under recent agreements on the managing of the crisis.
Greece will further strengthen refugee reception centers Rafinha Trikot , as well as facilities for irregular migrants and will keep protecting European borders by cooperating with the European border control agency Frontex and NATO. Athens also proposes that the headquarters of the new European Coast Guard will be in Greece.
On the other hand, Greece requests that other countries will also fulfill all their pledges, the statement stressed, so that thousands of people who keep landing on the Aegean Sea islands will not be trapped in the country for months or even years.
The Greek political leaders authorized the Greek Prime Minister to request EU to "make clear that unilateral actions will not be accepted and countries that choose them will face repercussions."
The joint statement also includes a call for the relocation of refugees directly from Turkey to avoid further deaths in the Aegean Sea and a "leading role of the EU" in efforts to end the war in Syria so that refugees can return home as soon as possible.
Currently more than 30,000 refugees are trapped in Greece James Rodriguez Trikot , with a third queuing at the Idomeni border crossing between Greece and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), according to figures released by a newly created committee coordinating ministries dealing with the crisis.
The gradual essential closures of borders in Austria and Balkan countries over the past two weeks with the introduction of caps that allow only a few hundred refugees continuing their journey to the European north, has created a bottleneck in Greece.
Especially at Idomeni the situation is dramatic, according to UNHCR and volunteer groups who report that the overcrowded camp set up a few months ago with a 1,500 capacity cannot cover the increased needs.
