In my case I want to hang up my boots at Real Madrid, This is exactly what I want and think. It is a dream to retire at home, at the club of my life. In the end we will see what happens. I hope I can continue here, but the most important thing now is to win the Champions. Many thought that we would win easily, but that was not the case.
