Sergio Ramos will announce his departure from Real Madrid on Thursday from 12.30 pm, the Spanish club reports via official channels on Wednesday evening. The defender-cum-captain will do so at a special press conference at the Valdebebas training complex, where chairman Florentino Pérez and the entire board of the Royal will be present. In recent months, the two parties have not reached an agreement on an extension of the contractual cooperation, which ends on June 30.
Ramos, who turned 35 in March, only received a contract proposal from Real Madrid until next summer, with a salary reduction of ten percent. The Spain international only agreed to the financial sacrifice if he could sign for two years, but Perez refused to cooperate. This means that the paths of the captain and the Spanish top club will finally separate after almost sixteen years, when he came over from Sevilla for 27 million euros.
Ramos won everything there was to win with Real Madrid: five league titles, four times the Spanish Super Cup, two times the Copa del Rey, three times the European Super Cup, four times the Champions League and four times the World Cup for club teams. The defender, who has captained . since 2015/16 los Merengues played a total of 671 games in all competitions for Real Madrid. In it he was good for no less than 101 goals. He was also responsible for 39 other hits.
The question is where Ramos’ future lies. Spanish media previously speculated about a return to Sevilla, the club where he ended up at the age of ten and eventually played 50 matches in the main squad. He can reportedly take up a position at the southern Spanish club after his active career. A foreign adventure is also not excluded. Paris Saint-Germain and Major League Soccer are mentioned as the destination of the 180-time A-international.
