Kevin de Bruyne says he is unsure whether this will be his last season at Manchester City after putting talks over a contract extension on hold.
The Belgium midfielder, 33, is out of contract at the end of the season, but paused negotiations while recovering from a thigh problem sustained in September.
He has been limited to nine appearances this term, but has come on as a substitute in each of City's past three matches as he regains full fitness.
"Obviously when I started the season I knew talks would happen but then I had that thing [thigh injury] against Brentford and put that to a side," said De Bruyne.
"I was hoping to be out for days but it ended up being eight or nine weeks and I would rather get back first and all the rest will come.
"I am not too obsessed with things but there is not much I can say. I am fine, I am happy, I just want to play football again and we will see.
"Talks will come, if no talks come it will be my last year. I just want to play good football."
De Bruyne added that had spoken to the club about his future last summer but "was not in the right frame of mind" to continue talks after his injury.
