Udinese football icon Antonio Di Natale has suggested that he could change his mind and put off retirement plans.
The 36-year-old veteran had earlier announced that he would hang up his boots at the end of this season but now he is not so sure about his decision, reports Xinhua.
"I want to enjoy for another three months and then we'll see. We are delighted for us and for the fans. The team deserved a few more points in the table but we are improving day after day. Now let us enjoy the win and from tomorrow we'll think about the Coppa Italia," he said after scoring to help Udinese beat Chievo 3-0.
Udinese are in a favourable position to reach the Coppa Italia final after beating Fiorentina 2-1 in the first leg of their semifinal. The second leg will be played Tuesday.
