Rio de Janiero, Apr 20 (IANS): Former Brazil international midfielder Diego Ribas has raised the prospect of finishing his career at Flamengo and revealed he remains hungry for more silverware with the Rio de Janeiro giants.
The 35-year-old is contracted to Flamengo until December but is expected to begin negotiating a new deal in the coming weeks.
"We don't have complete control over the future but the possibility of ending my career at Flamengo exists," Diego said in an interview published on the club's website, reports Xinhua news agency.
"If it happens, it will be the source of great pride. I'm not sure how many more years I'm going to play. It depends on how I'm feeling and my body. I'm going to continue to work hard and see what the possibilities are," added Diego, who has been capped 35 times for Brazil's national team.
