Former Arsenal and Villarreal star Cazorla is now weighing up his next move - whether to play on in LaLiga or hang up the boots - and he will not receive any pressure from Oviedo to make a decision.
Indeed, on the retained list released today, next to the name of Cazorla was a simple message: Santi Cazorla: HE IS IN CHARGE.
In other words, everything will be left to Cazorla, 40, to choose whether he will play on next season.
