Cristiano Ronaldo cryptically left the door open for a summer move to Real Madrid - despite his joy at Manchester United's third straight title triumph.
Ronaldo is coveted by the Spanish giants who are desperate to sign the European and World Player of the Year this summer in a world-record £75million deal.
And Ronaldo did little to dispel speculation that he will be playing abroad next season by saying United would continue to be successful whoever played for the club.
"It doesn't matter which players are here or which coach is here," said Ronaldo. "The mentality of this club is always to win and I'm proud to be in the history of this team. It's not easy to win the title three times in a row. The lads worked for that and it's a special, special moment. We have to enjoy the moment.
"It's always good to be at the top. We've won a few things and this club needs to carry on.
"We've won the title again and now we get to celebrate with our families. I'm enjoying it a lot. It's a fantastic achievement.

"If we can go and win the Champions League next week against Barcelona, that would be a really fantastic achievement."
United chief executive David Gill is ready for another close season of speculation, insisting: "He is not for sale. He's a great player and he's part of our club."
He told BBC Radio Five Live's Sportsweek programme: "I'm sure the Spanish press will start rumours and start that whole process going again.
"There's a (presidential) election at Real Madrid and we've seen it all before with many of our players over the years since I've been with the club.
"But I think we've got to be confident that Cristiano will stay here."
