Real Madrid captain Iker Casillas wants to win next season's Champions League following Wednesday's La Liga title victory.

Real Madrid captain Iker Casillas has claimed that winning the Champions League is now his side's aim following Wednesday's La Liga title triumph.

Los Blancos secured their first championship since 2008 with a 3-0 win at Athletic Bilbao.

However, Casillas now wants to win European honours next season after the club was knocked out of the Champions League semi-finals to Bayern Munich last month.

"It has been a long and hard season, but it's time to celebrate now," he told reporters. "We have made another step forward compared to last term. The next objective is the Champions League. We want to win that next season.

"I dedicate this title to all the Madridistas who dreamed of winning the Liga. It was very difficult to beat a team like Barcelona, but we have done it. Our Champions League exit still hurts, but we want to enjoy this success now."

Wednesday's La Liga victory was the 32nd in Madrid's history.
