Xavi ready to continue international career

Spanish midfielder Xavi has hinted that he is not yet ready to retire from international football.

Reports had claimed that the 32-year-old would call time on his career with La Roja after last night's Euro 2012 final against Italy.

However, having helped guide the Spanish to a 4-0 win and the trophy in Kiev, the Barcelona playmaker has revealed that he is planning to travel to 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

"If I feel fine, I will be there," he told Marca. "I will speak with coach Vicente del Bosque but in principle, yes I will be there."

Xavi has made 115 appearances for his country.
