Ancelloti keen on keeping Iker Casillas at Real Madrid

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti is hopeful that he can keep Arsenal target Iker Casillas at the Bernabeu beyond the current season. 

Casillas has been second choice to Diego Lopez in the La Liga, and although the Spanish International shot stopper plays as the number one in the Champions League, he is upset at not getting his chances in the league.

The former Paris Saint-Germain manager has insisted that he wants Casillas to stay with Los Blancos and has praised him for his professionalism over the years. 

"I haven't talked to him about leaving, he's a great keeper and a great professional," He said. 

"Even if he doesn't play he helps the team, he's a true captain."
