Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar has rubbished claims he has already decided to hang up his gloves for good at the end of this season.
Many expect the 38-year-old custodian to retire at the end of the season with Ben Foster has been tipped by boss Sir Alex Ferguson as the Dutchman's successor.
"I don't know if this is going to be my final season," van der Sar told The Mirror. "As far as making a decision I'm going to see how the season goes.
"It's always hard the moment you decide to stop playing.
"It does matter if you're at a small club or a big club. It's the end of your playing career. So that's always going to be a big moment for any player.
"Several factors will help me decide. Am I still enjoying it? Do the club still want me? These kinds of things.
"The manager's planning to give Ben more games and I think that's normal because you have to look to the future. The manager has gone public on this. I still want to play as many games as I can next season."
