Cristiano Ronaldo said he can continue playing for another
10 years after signing a new deal at Real Madrid.
The 31-year-old's deal was set to end in June 2018 but his
new contract extension will see him remain with the club until
June 2021.
The Portuguese added the new contract would not be the last
deal he signs as he wants to finish his career at Real.
"What I most want is to continue enjoying the years I have
left to play. I still have 10 years," he said.
And while the Portuguese wants to end his career at the
Bernabeu, he admitted: "No one knows what the future holds."
Ronaldo, who has scored 371 goals since joining the club from
Manchester United in 2009, added: "I'm going to be here for
another five years, but let it be known this will not be my last
contract.
"I have said many times that I carry this club in my heart, it is
part of me and it is a special time in my life.
"Of course I would like to end my career at this club, this is
my penultimate contract, I want to be here for many years to
come.
"I want to continue re-writing history at this club."
It has been reported his weekly wage will remain at around
£365,000.
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez said: "We want to be
together for many years to come."
