Bayern Munich captain Phillip Lahm has revealed that me may reconsider an earlier decision to retire from football when his current contract expires in 2018.
"I can't exclude that I will say in 2018: 'I am feeling well, I am fit, I want to play one more year.' That may be possible," Lahm explained to media.
When he signed a new deal in June , Germany's World Cup winning captain, who retired from international duty immediately after the victorious tournament last summer, had said he thought it would be his last in professional football.
However, ever the down to earth and humble individual, Lahm knows it may not be necessarily be as straightforward as a decision just to keep playing.

"At the same time, I know that I will be 34-years-old and we're not talking about some random club, but FC Bayern," he pointed out.
"It is a club which wants to be the best in all competitions. To be able to still perform strong permanently under these circumstances won't be easy."
