Real Madrid ace Cristiano Ronaldo says his hunger for titles remains as strong as ever.

Ronaldo collected his fourth European Golden Boot trophy yesterday.

He told World Soccer: "The most important job for a forward is to score goals – and to be the best goal scorer four times is an honour for me and something special. I consider it very important. And I love it because it's something you work for and at the end you reap the rewards. Let's hope I can keep up this streak.

"I thought maybe I could win one or two, but not four. But sometimes there is a sequence of events that push you towards an objective. In this last one, for example, I began to score a lot in the first few games and thought: “OK, I'm playing very well and I'm going to continue to do so." I didn't start saying I would win it either, but everything ends up taking over. You see people talk about the trophy and you motivate yourself.

"I want to keep winning. I still feel good, I feel young. I am 30 years old and I want to keep playing for five or six more. And in those years I want to do things well and maintain the level I've had the last few seasons. I know that it's gradually more difficult, but in my head it's possible. I want to win and I'm at the best club in the world. I have a contract until I'm 33 and, like I've said many times, my dream is to finish here at Real Madrid because I feel good and useful here. I want to keep going."
