Leighton Baines has revealed that he sees his future away from the game of football once he retires.
The Everton and England left-back admits that he wants to "try something else" once he hangs up his boots.
However, the 29-year-old recently signed a four-year deal extension with Everton and is not ready to retire just yet.
"As much as I love it - the reason I don't watch or read about it now is because I am giving everything I can to it - any bits of time that are my own, I come away from it," Baines said, according to Sky Sports News.
"So when I finish, I think I will get that passion back as I won't be involved in it.
"I reckon I would go back as a fan but I'd like to do something else. I just want to try a different world, with different people, different experiences."
Baines is likely to feature in the Merseyside derby this weekend.
