Mr Miura has been signed by a club in the country's J League.
He said he was ready to take on a new challenge.
Katie Gornall has been assessing this latest move in a sporting career that spans five decades.
The silver-haired striker is still going.
Kazuyoshi Miura, known as King Kazuta fans, has announced he's signed on loan with Japanese third division side Fukushima United.
The contract extends a career that began way back in 1986 with the Brazilian club Santos.
A former Japan international, one of Miura's 89 caps came against England in 1995.
Remember David Platt and Stuart Pearce?
Yep, they were both in the team he played against.
The goals don't come like they used to, but Miura is considered a role model for generations of Japanese players.
The forward, who will be 59 in February, is often asked what the secret is to his record-breaking career.
He insists there is no secret, other than hard work and dedication.
As he signed his latest professional contract, he summed it up simply, my passion for football hasn't changed, no matter how old I get.

Back now to events in Iran and the latest wave of protests there comes just weeks after one of the country's most prominent human rights activists, Nagesh Mohammadi, winner of the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize, was arrested after giving a speech at a memorial for a fellow activist.
She's previously spent 10 years in prison.
During that time, she's been apart from her son, Ali Rahmani, who left Iran to be with his father in exile in Paris.
From the French capital and in French, he spoke to James Kumarasamy about the situation in his home country.
Iran has seen huge protests before.
Does he think the ending will be different this time?
