Raul's place in the Real team has come under threat from former Liverpool
striker Michael Owen.
The 27-year-old believes he has yet to peak, but has called on the Bernabeu
club he joined in 1995 to tell him if he still has a future there.
"After 11 years here I want what is best for the club," Raul said.
"If at some time I have to sacrifice myself in order for the team to progress
then I will do."
"If the club calls you up and says you have to go then as a player you have
to be prepared to look for a way out that benefits everyone."
"If I listen to the polls in some papers, it looks as though I should leave
now."
"I still feel useful to the club and believe I have not reached my peak, but
I don't want to be in the way. All I want is for the club to be clear with me."
Owen joined Real from Liverpool last summer, while Raul's former strike
partner Fernando Morientes made the switch to Anfield in a £6.3 million deal in
January.
