Sergio Ramos has become, at 34 years old, the most decisive footballer in Madrid after the break by the Covid-19. The Real Madrid captain is dominating both areas and with his great goal to Mallorca he is giving even more strength to his arguments when he sits down at the table to definitively negotiate its renewal. His contract expires on June 30, 2021 (technically he can negotiate from January 1 with whomever he wants to go for free) and as AS reported, there are good future intentions on both sides although the club has shown no signs of being in a hurry. They assume that at least Ramos will be a Real Madrid player one more year from the current link, until 2022.
The goal against Mallorca was his second direct foul target with Madrid. The previous one was on May 7, 2014, also in the League, against Valladolid. At Pucela, the center-back scored in the 33rd minute (the match would end 1-1) from a position similar to that of the vermilion. That day Ramos took advantage of Cristiano's injury at the start of the game to take responsibility in a matter that was exclusive to the Portuguese; against Mallorca, the camero asserted his hierarchy about the other potential pitcher, Bale. There was no 'negotiation', he dialed and ran to celebrate pointing to the backl. How did he seven Madeira, by the way.
Ramos gives substance to his maturity as a footballer with more goals than ever. Mallorca's is the eighth in this league (the tenth of the season) and since 1976-77, when he got it Pirri As a libero, there was no defender with so many goals in Madrid. A record-breaking day, because it also meant victory number 300 of the Andalusian with the Real Madrid shirt.
A common future …
The whirlwind of the competition has left the matter of the renewal of the great captain in the background, although the idea of the entity remains attached to this being season season (for the moment, until 2022) and Ramos would like to sign two years, but the economic outlook derived from the coronavirus crisis makes Madrid's every step very cautious. Even in the economic aspect, considering that Bale is still the highest paid (€ 14M) despite his almost zero current influence on the team. Ramos, yes, warned the day of City (February 25) that there will be no tensions for his contract. “We went through a moment with the great club in all aspects, so there is no rush,” said the white captain. “We are going to come to an understanding. I have never demanded two, three, or four years. I understand that at a certain age they do it one year. If the club wants me to continue, I will continue here“
Ramos puts the ball in the rival net and also on the roof of the club. Goals, soccer relevance and also leadership outside the field of play. He said it Zidane after defeating Mallorca with the preponderant role of its captain: “Sergio always shows us the way”.
