Sergio Ramos, one of the most iconic footballers of the last decade, has surprised everyone with his decision regarding the future of his career. After leaving Sevilla FC in June, the 38-year-old defender remained without a club, but his next move has left everyone stunned.
The news has caused great excitement, especially in the Real Madrid environment and among his teammates, such as Lucas Vázquez, who couldn't help but express his surprise.
End of His Time at Sevilla
Sergio Ramos left Sevilla FC after his contract expired at the end of last season. Since then, his future has been uncertain. Although there was talk of a return to Madrid or transfers in the MLS, it was Corinthians that made the final move to sign him.
The Spanish center-back, known for his leadership and experience, will seek a new challenge in Brazil to continue his career at international level.
The interest of Corinthians
Corinthians, a prominent club in Brazil, showed interest in Ramos weeks ago. Club director Fabinho Soldado said they were looking at various options to sign players.
"The financial question is important and we have to make the best choice for Corinthians," he explained in an interview. Although at first it seemed complicated, the transfer of Ramos seems to be close to being confirmed.
Real Madrid closes the Ramos chapter
Real Madrid, for their part, have made it clear that they are not counting on Sergio Ramos. The defender's era at Bernabéu has come to an end.
Although there were rumors of his return in the past, the club has opted for new projects. Ramos is no longer part of the club's plans, which are betting on a new generation of players.
The surprise of Lucas Vázquez
Ramos' teammate at Real Madrid, Lucas Vázquez, didn't hide his surprise when he heard the news. The Galician winger expressed his surprise at his friend's decision to play in Brazil. Despite the distance, Vázquez showed his support for Ramos and his decision to continue playing at the highest level, although in a different context.
Ramos' future is clear: he will continue his career at Corinthians. After years of success in Europe, the center-back will seek new challenges in Brazilian soccer. Despite the surprises, this is the new stage for a player who has always been a leader on the field.
