Official Announcement
This definitely belongs here too.
I really, really hope he is thinking this through :/
There's no translation on the english website yet so the one here is mine. Sorry if it's really bad I'm completely blocked right now, I can't even...
Comunicado oficial
El capitán del primer equipo, Iker Casillas Fernández, ha comunicado a las autoridades del club su deseo de rescindir su contrato, el cual originalmente se extendía hasta el fin de la temporada 2017, con el propósito de retirarse del fútbol profesional al final de la presente temporada.

The captain of the first team, Iker Casillas Fernández, has let know the authorities of the club his desire to rescind his current contract, which originally extended until the end of the 2017 season, with the purpose of retiring from professional football at the end of the current campaign. Real Madrid C.F. will take all pertinent measures to ensure a satisfactory agreement is reached with the player although it urges him to keep considering his decision.
The announcement makes absolutely no sense to me although I guess it was a way to publicly pressure him into backing down?
There is also an interview with Marca where he says that it isn't really a final decision but that before the World Cup he did say he'd like to end his career if they happened to win it. It's not sure it will happen but he does have other aspirations...
he wants to become an actor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is from his first feature film: en fuera de juego
OKAY OKAY
I MADE IT ALL UP
HE'S JUST MAKING A CAMEO IN A MOVIE
