Real Madrid fullback Arbeloa proud to reach 200-game mark

Real Madrid fullback Alvaro Arbeloa is full of pride over reaching 200 appearances for the club.

After six seasons with Real, Arbeloa has broken the 200 game barrier.

He said: "For a youth academy player like me to have played 200 games for Real Madrid is unimaginable and it is something I am very proud of. I came here as a boy and now I am a man with 200 matches to his name.

"I want to be part of this club for as long as I can. This is home for me. This is the club of my heart and hopefully I have many years ahead here. I have two left as it stands, but it would be an honour to see out my career with Real Madrid. I know that is a very difficult task because of how highly demanding this club is, but that is not a problem for me. I will always put in the effort and make sacrifices on a daily basis in order to win titles."
