That decision will depend on what his options are this summer – but the veteran made it clear he’ll need to be “100 per cent convinced” in order to sign on at a new club."Maybe I'll stop completely,” Robben said. “When an offer comes, of which I am 100 per cent convinced and say 'that's something nice, I want to do that', then I continue playing. “If the ideal offer does not come, then it can be over. "One possible landing spot suggested for Robben is FC Groningen, the Eredivisie club where he made his professional debut back in 2000.And while Robben did not rule it out, he would not commit to the idea of returning, noting that if he did that, he’d be required to follow through on his word. "I said earlier that I can not promise anything for a return,” Robben added. “If you promise something, you have to keep [your promise]. Everything is open."</blockquote>
