Raúl and Casillas sign lifelong contracts with Real Madrid

[Pennywise]

President Ramón Calderón went to Real Madrid City to formalize lifelong contracts the Club has drawn up for Raúl and Iker Casillas. The 30-year old captain will remain at the Club until the end of the 2010/11 campaign, while the 26-year old goalkeeper will see the 2016/17 season through.


>> So guys, do you think Raul and Casillas will stay their careers out for Real Madrid?

I think Raul will, but Casillas is still 26 and has been in the club since the late '90s as regular and since he is a keeper, he can play to he his 40 if he want. I think he may will leave Madrid one day for another challenge...but not on many years though.

2016/17 season.. he'll be about 34.
I think he will stay until the end of his career. I still think he has his best to show.
Unless he becomes really bad, or there is the next iker coming up from the youth system, then he should be there until then. I haven't heard anything about him wanting to move when he's older.
