REAL MADRID legend Iker Casillas is continuing to live life in the fast lane as he hinted at a shock new career.
The former Spain star, now 42, is regarded as one of the greatest goalkeepers of his generation.
Casillas appeared 725 times for Real Madrid during a storied career.
During his time with Los Blancos, he won five LaLiga titles, the Copa del Rey twice, three Champions Leagues, and plenty more.
He spent his latter years in Portugal with Porto, where he won the Primeira Liga in 2017-18.
And, most famously, he captained Spain to their World Cup triumph in 2010.
