Ramos can leave Madrid on a free transfer this summer, as his deal ends at the end of the month.
Kroos is confident that Ramos will stay at the club
Toni Kroos says he hopes Sergio Ramos will stay at Real Madrid as the defender’s contract nears its expiration. Ramos can leave Madrid on a free transfer this summer, as his deal ends at the end of the month. The Spain international has been linked to the likes of Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester City and Chelsea, while a return to Sevilla is reportedly an option. But Madrid are said to have offered Ramos a deal to keep him in the Spanish capital for another year, and Kroos is hoping he will sign it. “I don’t know how things are with the club. Of course, he is a top teammate, and I enjoyed playing with him, and I hope that we will have a few more years together,” the midfielder told reporters.
Sergio is the best captain for the German
“But in the end, it’s not my decision. I can say that Ramos is a great guy – and the best captain I ever had in my career.” The 35-year-old joined Madrid from Sevilla in 2005 and won five La Liga titles and four Champions League trophies with Los Blancos. Ramos made over 670 appearances in all competitions for the Spanish giants but was limited to only 21 games in 2020-21. The defender will not be present at the UEFA European Championship this summer. Ramos was left out of the squad despite being the team’s captain. The centre-back admitted last month that it might be best for him to spend the summer resting to be ready for the next season.
“It hurts me not to be able to help my team more and not to defend the country, but, in this case, it is better to take a rest, fully recover, and, next season, return as we have always done,” he said. “It hurts not to play for your country, but you have to be honest and honest.”
