Cardiff City boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hopes to convince Craig Bellamy to play on next season.
Bellamy started in the derby defeat at Swansea City.
Solskjaer said: "Craig can definitely go on beyond this season. His body is in good shape, there's no fat on him and he looks after himself - so it's all about how long he wants to play football.
"He knows when he needs a rest. I was like that, the older you get you know what you need."
