All Blacks legend Dan Carter is taking until the end of the year to decide his plans for next year.
Carter told French rugby newspaper Midi Olympique that with all the uncertainty in the world at the moment he was taking the remainder of the year to rest and enjoy time with his family, something he hadn t been able to do over the last two years because he lived in Japan.
I missed them very much and I wanted to spend more time with my wife and three young sons.
I m not thinking of playing abroad either because the New Zealand borders are still closed, he said.
