Former Argentina captain Juan Sebastian Veron has come out of retirement to play another season at Estudiantes with his wages going to the La Plata club's juniors.
.
Veron, who is the club's technical secretary and was sporting director last season, signed a new player's contract until next June on Thursday and will play for them in the 2013-14 Argentine first division league season.
.
"I don't think I'm in the form of that time (in 2009) when we won the Libertadores Cup, but I'm just as motivated because I love playing football," the 38- year-old playmaker told Radio Del Plata earlier this week.
.
The former Lazio and Manchester United midfielder, who had been plagued by back and ankle problems, retired a year ago after which the team suffered a slump in form.
.
Veron kept fit playing for a team that won the La Plata amateur league, while Estudiantes finished 14th in the 'Final' championship, second of two in the season, last month.
