Arjen Robben admits that he occasionally thinks about reversing his decision to retire, less than a year on from calling time on his playing career.

Former Bayern Munich winger Arjen Robben has revealed that he has considered coming out of retirement.

The ex-Netherlands international called time on his playing career at the end of last season at the age of 35.

Robben won 22 major honours across a 19-year senior career, including a league and cup double in his final campaign at Bayern, and the Dutchman admits that he occasionally thinks about being back on the field.

"In the beginning I didn't miss football at all," he told the FC Bayern podcast. "But then there was a phase when it tickled again and I had thoughts such as: 'Hey, maybe I would like to play a little again'.

"From time to time I still have this feeling. With this virus, it is a very strange time for everyone and when football returns, then now! But maybe it always stays a bit in there. I'm just an athlete."

As well as turning out more than 300 times for Bayern, Robben also represented Groningen, PSV Eindhoven, Chelsea and Real Madrid. body check tags ::
