"It would have been difficult for me to win again next year," he said, per ESPN. "There have been good moments, but also difficult times.

"I do not forget that. And at this club, you must know this: I do not want to start a season and have a bad time.

"I want to end with Real Madrid when everything is going well. I did it as a player, and now again as a coach. This [is] the right moment to end things well."

There is virtually nothing to play for this season, with 12 points behind Barcelona in La Liga and getting dumped out of the Champions League as well as the Copa del Rey.
