Real Madrid legend Fernando Hierro admits the "Decima" has become a club obsession.
Real meet Atletico Madrid in Saturday's Champions League final.
"It could be that a small obsession exists now," Hierro told Marca.
"Twelve years have passed now without winning one, and for Real Madrid, that's a long time. But I think the true obsession existed in 1998, when we had gone 32 years without winning it."
"Generations of players and fans didn't know what it was to win the European Cup. But then we won it and it was like being freed."
"Because of this we also then won the eighth and ninth titles. Hopefully the same can happen again."
"I hope they can win La Decima and overcome this small issue."
