Hellas Verona veteran Luca Toni is rethinking his retirement plans.

Toni was expected to give the game away after this season.

“Everyone says I signed on to become a director of Verona, but the truth is I am still a football player and I haven't decided yet whether I'll retire in June or in 2017," he told Tuttosport.

“I've been supposed to quit for the last four years and I'll make a decision in the spring. A lot will depend on how the season goes and how I'm feeling, so whether I want to keep challenging myself all over again.

“Would I become a Coach? No, it's far too stressful. I've seen some of my ex-teammates get wiped out so fast."
