"It would be the ultimate experience to win a World Cup and to be able to close out my career in that way. I’ve daydreamed about it after many years of fighting for it."
He added:
"I made a million possibilities of what could happen … the first match, the round of 16, the quarterfinals, the semifinal and the final. I’m also going to live it as something special, because it’s the last one. To finish my last year winning a World Cup would be the dream ending.”
Fans are now reacting to the latest announcement. One of them wrote on Twitter:
"He finally got his “last dance”."
Another commented:
"We will be watching."
