Real Madrid's Iker Casillas eyes success in 2012-13

Iker Casillas insists that Real Madrid aim to win all the trophies they compete for in 2012-13.

Real Madrid captain Iker Casillas has underlined his side's ambition in the 2012-13 campaign by insisting that they plan to win all the trophies on offer.

Madrid won La Liga last season but missed out on the Copa del Rey and the Champions League, failing to reach beyond the semi-finals in both competitions.

"We want to go one step further as we have done over the last two seasons since Mourinho arrived," said Casillas.

"We want to strengthen the team and we have more responsibility, more experience and we want to win all the titles: the Spanish Super Cup, which is the first title up for grabs, defend the Spanish league title, the Spanish Cup and we want and hope to win the Champions League having not won it these past years."

Casillas is especially keen on winning the Champions League in 2012-13 and is convinced that the squad has the players of necessary quality to achieve this feat.

"With the team we have, the players, the fans and the stadium, this team deserves the European Cup," enthused the 31-year-old. "The steps we are taking are the right ones and we have a young and very experienced team.

"Two years of experience are very useful. Winning it is not an obsession since we must concentrate on winning the first league match and then Super Cup."

Madrid are currently in the USA on a pre-season tour.
