Iker Casillas targets silverware at Porto

Former Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas says that he hopes to develop his game further at Porto.

Iker Casillas has said that he is confident of winning trophies this season with Porto, following his move from Real Madrid.

The 34-year-old left the Spanish giants earlier this month, after spending his entire career with the club.

"I joined Porto, mainly for the trust and understanding I have with Julen Lopetegui," he told Porto's official magazine. "I had some offers, which didn't entice me, plus I wanted to leave Spain.

"Signing for Porto was a way to let go of my past with Real Madrid in Spain and devote myself to a club outside my country but still be relatively close. [Porto] are also big name and prestigious, so they attracted me [for those reasons].

"Here, I can continue with an important team and develop my game further. We'll work [to end our trophy drought] by trying to win trophies in both Portugal and Europe."

Casillas made over 700 appearances for Madrid.
