After hitting the 900-game mark for Manchester United, Ryan Giggs has expressed his desire to continue playing for at least another season.
The Welsh player told manutd.com that he is enjoying his time on the field for now, and he can still see himself playing for the Red Devils next season.
"I'm enjoying my football more than ever. The club want me to carry on so I want to carry on. I'm hungry and still want to play. I look forward to next season - hopefully after winning something this season." Giggs said.
Having been a Manchester United fan since boyhood, the winger shared his pride in achieving the 900-game landmark at the club, a record he never expected to attain when he first donned the Red Devils kit.
"To play 900 games for Manchester United is obviously something to be proud of. When you start off, you just set yourself little goals - to get into the team and obviously to stay in the team."
"Then you get a little bit greedy and want to win things, and then win more things. I don't think you ever envisage you're going to play that many games."
Taking pointers from team mate Paul Scholes' recent reversal on football retirement, Giggs has revealed that he still requires more time before deciding when he would call an end to his playing career.
"Seeing how much Scholesy missed it and seeing him now enjoying training and games, and playing so well, that is something I've got to think of as well," he concluded.
Giggs will be hoping to take the field this Sunday at White Hart Lane when Manchester United clash with Tottenham in their Premier League fixture.
