Iker Casillas expects to still be a Real Madrid player next season

Iker Casillas insists that he intends to stay as Real Madrid goalkeeper next season, despite reports that the club want Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea.

Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas has reiterated that he has no desire to leave the Bernabeu this summer.

Widespread reports have suggested that the Spanish giants are targeting Manchester United shot-stopper David de Gea, which puts Casillas's future in doubt.

However, the 34-year-old has insisted that he will remain at the Bernabeu and intends to prove that he belongs as the club's number one.

"Next year, I see myself still stood between these posts," Casillas told Cadena SER. "I have no plans to leave Madrid - I'm fine.

"I'll confront next season as though it is my first - that's the challenge I've set myself. I'm a man of challenges. Last year I had a big one and I got over it."

Casillas has been at Real for his entire career so far.
