Five times Ballon d’Or winner, Cristiano Ronaldo said he is planning on finishing his career at Real Madrid.
The Real Madrid hit man said this on Thursday after receiving his Ballon d’Or prize, drawing him with arch-rival Lionel Messi for the same number of winning.
"I hope I can play at the greatest level for a few more years," Ronaldo told reporters. "The battle continues with Messi. We're doing the best we can for our teams. I think things are happening for a reason.
"I feel good, let's see what happens in the future. I'm happy at Real and I want to stay and finish my career there if possible."
Ronaldo scored 42 goals across all competitions during the 2016-17 season, leading Real Madrid to a La Liga and Champions League double.
The 32-year-old netted 25 times in La Liga last term and added 12 goals in the Champions League, including a brace in the final against Juventus.
"I'm very happy. To get this prize in Paris is a great experience, it's marvelous," Ronaldo told L'Equipe TV.
"It's a great moment of my career. It's something I wish I have every year. We had a marvelous year. I was the [top] goalscorer of the Champions League, so I want to thank my team-mates.
"They were important for me. And also thanks everybody who helped me to be in great form during the season."
