Palm Sunday: the center-back and Pilar Rubio value following in the footsteps of Cristiano and Georgina in Arabia

It would be said that we are in the twilight of the life of Sergio Ramos but that is little less than nonsense if we remember that we are dealing with a 37-year-old person, in good health, a multimillionaire and with a large and consolidated family together with the actress and influencer pilar rubiomother to his four sons, Sergio Ramos Jr., Marco Ramos, Máximo Adriano Ramos and Alejandro Ramos.

The Sevillian and the presenter married in 2018 after a seven-year relationship. But his stay in the French capital may be about to end because the footballer is not well at PSG and he has an offer that he had been waiting for months to leave the French club.

The professional future of Sergio Ramos does not seem to be going to continue at Paris Saint-Germain after two seasons with more shadows than lights. He barely played in his first year after leaving Real Madrid, due to various injuries, but even when he was free of them, he did not perform at the level that he demonstrated for more than a decade in La Roja and in the club led by Florentino Pérez.

Yes, he has occupied a good place in the current season within the lineup of Christophe Galtier, but the elimination of his team, already out of the Champions League, has greatly influenced the plans of Nasser Al-Khelaifi, that he intended to lower the salary of some of his highly paid stars. He wants to take half of his salary from the Spaniard. One of the victims has been Sergio Ramos, that he is not willing to accept a lesser file than the one he has signed by contract and that amounts to 12 million euros net per year.

Not only money conditions the continuity of Sergio Ramos at PSG. The camero had been warned that if he stays, next season he will be a secondary in the team, assuming that he will be bench meat, a substitute for Milan Skriniar, the great bet of the French, coming from Inter Milan.

Family implications but 30 million net a year

Under these conditions, it is not surprising that the millionaire offer from Saudi Arabia that is on the table is taken into account and the Andalusian defender follows in the footsteps of his former teammate Cristiano Ronaldo, at the service of Mohammed bin Salmán’s Al-Nasser since he started this year. However, the team that has extended its generous hand to Sergio Ramos from the Persian Gulf is not that of the Portuguese crack but his rival: Al-Hilal, based in Riyadh, is the club that intends to sign Leo Messi, Ramos’s current teammate at PSG. They offer Ramos no less than 30 million euros net per season and the possibility of signing three, that is, of ensuring that card until he is 40 years old. Almost triple what he charges now. The team was founded in 1957 under the name of Olympic Club, it is the formation of the First Division of Saudi Arabia with the most titles, 18 exactly. It could be said that it is the Real Madrid of Arabia.

The lack of rights in an absolute dictatorship such as Saudi Arabia does not help. Women’s rights hardly exist and the newspaper archives reveal what Pilar Rubio thinks about it. Both Cristiano and Georgina have been harshly criticized for whitewashing with their presence among tyrants a theocracy that does not respect all people.

This tale of a thousand and one nights has other edges. Living in Riyadh, almost 7,000 kilometers from Spain, implies decisions that logically affect the family, the work of Pilar Rubio, whose career is going from strength to strength, and above all the children of the couple, whose studies should continue in the lands of the Gulf. Needless to say, luxury, economic power and ultra-VIP treatment for a star like Ramos ensure a materially dream life. It is also true that private planes shorten distances. But for the moment those reflections have not been resolved and this Holy Week Pilar Rubio Y Sergio will have to talk about it. At the moment, we are on Palm Sunday.
