Real Betis great Joaquin open to playing on next season

Real Betis great Joaquin admits he's not made a decision about next season.

The veteran winger, 41, says he could yet play on.

He told Marca: "It's true, it's true, many times I talk about it with my closest people and look, with how complicated the first years were when I returned. I signed three and the last one already began to change things a little, Betis began to work and seen in another way.

"But the first two were complicated. What I could never imagine or think is that seven years later I was going to continue playing.

"If I decide to leave and we enter the Champions League, it's to kill me. When decisions are made, you have to be aware that this can happen.

"Just like the (LaLiga appearances) record, which is another objective that I have there, which especially this one makes me excited, but hey. The decisions when they are made, if they have to be made, can be fulfilled or not. But regardless of whether I am there or not, hopefully Betis can be in Europe next year."
