Newcastle United striker Papiss Cisse has admitted that his "aim" is to play for Real Madrid.
It had been reported that Madrid had scouted the 26-year-old in recent weeks, and he has confessed his admiration for the Spanish outfit.
"My long-term aim is to play for the biggest clubs and I want to win the Champions League. I have loved Real Madrid ever since I was a little boy," Cisse told The Sun.
"But I am happy for now at Newcastle. They are a big club – even though they are not a Manchester United or Manchester City."
Cisse has scored 13 goals in 13 games since joining the Magpies from Freiburg in January.
