The 36-year-old still has it in him to play for the best

The World Cup and European Championship winner with Spain was once the best goalkeeper in the world. The former Real Madrid shot-stopper is currently playing in Primeira Liga with FC Porto.

In 725 appearances for Real Madrid, the Spaniard lifted 5 La Liga titles and 3 UEFA Champions League titles. He has also made 167 appearances for the Spain national team.

Regarded by many as one of the greatest goalkeepers of all time, Casillas was praised for his ability to produce acrobatic saves. His consistency, concentration, and footwork were regarded as phenomenal during his days at the Santigo Bernabeu. Also, his leadership qualities deserved a special mention here.

Casillas is reportedly currently earning an annual salary of €7 million for the 2017/18 season, which boils down to £115,000-a-week. Though he is well past his prime, he still has it in him to play at the highest level.
