This has a lot to do with respect. Respect for tradition and the fans."I will have reached 32 at the end of the contract. I do not forecast playing until 38 or 39.  "At 32 one has already given his best years in football and as for physically it seems a good age to quit, but I do not want to commit to what might happen between now and six years' time. "Real Madrid is my club. In the last two-and-a-half years I have grown in a sporting sense and personally. "From the first day I found a positive response from team-mates, fans and coaches." Madrid play Cultural Leonesa in the Copa del Rey on Wednesday, before Saturday's crucial Clasico away to Barca, who they lead by six points at the top of LaLiga.</blockquote>
