Should the option be triggered, Casillas will still be playing at the age of 40, and he intends to retire when the deal expires.“Today is a very special day,” he said after putting pen to paper. “I feel at home at this club. I want to stay here until I finish my career as a footballer.“When I got here, many would think it would be to play a year or two and finish. I only have words of appreciation to this club. Not only to the club but to the city itself. “Our idea is to compete for the missing titles. We have the total focus on the championship and the possible final of the Portuguese Cup, where we want to be. In the Champions League, anything can happen.“My head is only in FC Porto. I will finish my career here and represent the values of the club and the values of the Portistas. After that, frankly, I don’t know, but I hope I’m always tied to football.”
