Nacho: "To win a league title at Real Madrid is magnificent and to do it as captain is even better"
"I understand that the fans are really looking forward to celebrating, but we'll do it in style next week," explained the captain.
Nacho was interviewed by Realmadrid TV after our team were crowned LaLiga champions, his fourth league title and his first as captain: "We're very happy. Leagues are very difficult to win, it's the work and sacrifice of the team throughout the year. We're very happy. Let's enjoy it and think about next Wednesday, when we have a big game."
"When a team wins a league title, it's because they have been consistent. The defensive work we've done is fundamental, with a lot of clean sheets. Up front we know the potential we have, but it's been a magnificent season for the whole team. We've been a very consistent and competitive team that has never given up. We're a great team and we've shown it in every single game in LaLiga."
His first LaLiga as captain
"I'd be lying to you if I told you that when I was little I didn't dream of winning a LaLiga as captain. It's a feeling I've been looking forward to this year. It's a dream come true. To win a league title at Real Madrid is magnificent, but to do it as captain is even better. It makes my hair stand on end to think that I'm going to go to Cibeles to put the scarf on her."
Message to the fans
"First of all, congratulations to all the Madrid fans. Thank you for the support we've had throughout the season, which has been fundamental. And secondly, a message of calm, that this will be celebrated as it deserves to be next weekend. They know how competitive we are and how much we're looking forward to the game against Bayern. I understand how much they want to celebrate, but we have to wait a week so that we can celebrate in style."
25 titles
"It sounds very nice, unbelievable. To be one of the players with the most titles at this club is a wonderful thing. It's very special to share it with players like Modrić, Marcelo and Karim. I'm very happy."
Wednesday's match
"We're just one step away from a very important match and on the verge of reaching another final. We're going to give our all to get there. That's why we can't celebrate too much. Tomorrow we'll be preparing for Wednesday's game, which is fundamental."
