Roberto Carlos eyes Japanese finale

The Brazilian World cup winner, who is in Yokohama preparing for Tuesday's World Club Championship game with Olimpia, admitted he has always held an interest in Japanese football and culture.

The jet-heeled left-back admitted that any move would not be for a while as he was happy at Madrid.

"Every time I come here I am treated wonderfully and I always say that one of my dreams is to one day be able to play in Japanese football," said Carlos.

"I hope the doors will be open as soon as I leave Real Madrid. I don't know when that will be, because I'm really happy there.

"But in the sense of culture, when it comes to respect for other human beings there is nowhere else like Japan. I hope one day to come and play in one of the clubs here."
