Former Real Madrid defender Nacho Fernandez is not considering a return to the club as he enjoys earning 'much more money' at Saudi Pro League side Al-Qadsiah.

The Spanish star left Los Blancos at the end of last season and put an end to a 13-year spell at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Nacho went on to join newly promoted SPL side Al-Qadsiah over the summer in a mouthwatering two-year deal.

The 34-year-old was asked about the possibility of returning to Real Madrid amid reports linking him with a move back to Spain.

He replied to COPE by saying: "They haven't called me, but I don't even think about it. Now I have to suffer with Real Madrid as a fan. It is a decision that I was very clear about, I felt that my time had come.

"I'm super proud of everything I experienced at Real Madrid, but I don't regret it. I don't have to lie either, logically I earn much more money here than at Real Madrid. No one is going to change me for telling me that I came here for the money."
