Ramos' performance at Stamford Bridge was met with the most mixed reviews. From those who defended what he did on the field because of the hierarchy he has, to those who affirmed that he was physically unable to play. Now it remains to be seen what participation the captain will have between now and the end of the season, taking into account that he only has four games left, the remaining ones in the League, to be in the showcase. Contract ends on June 30 and there is no agreement with Madrid for a renewal or great European offer to leave that has transcended …
Nor is Ramos' participation in the vital game against Sevilla this Sunday, always very special for him because he signed for Madrid from there. The center-back stayed in the gym in the preparatory session on Friday, as did Valverde and Vinicius, and the idea is that he tries himself in training on Saturday to see if he can be from the game. Zidane expects that, if he gives him the physical, he will continue leading the team from now until the end of the season. And whether or not the idea of the game varies a lot, since with Ramos the 3-5-2 is feasible and, without him, it is more likely 4-3-3 with Nacho or Valverde himself on the right side.
Ramos' contribution this season.
With regard to the future of Ramos at Real Madrid, nothing has changed. Or if. Alaba's signing is taken for granted after Sky announced that there is already a definitive agreement between the Austrian defender and Real Madrid. Everything, in the absence of the signature. If the first time the imminent transfer was announced it was the player's own agent, Pini Zahavi, who was quick to deny it, this second time no one came to the fore to deny the information. It has even transpired that Alaba will take Ramos's salary: 12 million net per season.
The other operation that affects Ramos is the renovation of Varane. The French central terminates the contract in 2022 and is in the process of looking for another destination if it does not renew upward with the white entity. And that seems complicated in the current crisis situation. Madrid, even, would welcome a transfer if the figure is closer to 100 million than 50. United wants him. With Varane out of the club, Ramos would have more options to renew …
Either way, the positions between Ramos and Real Madrid remain at a standstill. The central, already 35 years old, wants to sign a two-year contract while maintaining his current salary. Madrid, meanwhile, offers him one (as is customary for players his age, as with Modric), and keep your current salary, but with a reduction of 10%, the same one that has already accepted a large part of the squad in individual negotiation… But the truth is that, each game that passes, the captain runs out of time. And more if you can not play it.
