Sergio Ramos's future could take a surprising turn in the coming weeks. Following his departure from Sevilla, the veteran Spanish center-back has been linked with several clubs. Particularly, it seems that the Premier League as his next destination is becoming increasingly likely. According to British media, Newcastle United is very interested in signing the Spanish national team captain. They are already preparing an offer that won't go unnoticed.
A New Challenge for Sergio Ramos
Sergio Ramos, who left Sevilla after one season at the Andalusian club, has been looking for a new path. His name has been linked with some teams in La Liga. However, the Premier League seems to be emerging as the most likely destination for the Andalusian right-back. Newcastle, one of the clubs with the highest expectations following its recent investment, has set its sights on Ramos to strengthen the defensive line.
The offer is said to be very tempting: a one-and-a-half-year contract, with a salary of around 10 million euros per campaign. If the deal goes through, the legendary Sergio Ramos would sign until summer 2026, which would allow him to have another spell in elite soccer. Despite his 38 years, the center-back is still considered one of the most complete and experienced defenders in world soccer.
Newcastle United's Interest
Newcastle United has been one of the most active clubs in the transfer market since the Saudis took over ownership. With a large financial capacity, the team is looking to strengthen all its lines and defense is one of its priorities. Sergio Ramos counts with a vast experience in both LaLiga and international competitions. He is thus presented as the ideal option to provide solidity and leadership in the Magpies' defense.
Newcastle, currently competing in the Premier League, has ambitions to return to being one of England's greatest. The incorporation of a player of Sergio Ramos's level could be key to their aspirations in European competitions. This is especially true regarding the Champions League, where the club has shown its intention to consolidate itself among the best.
Ancelotti and the Transfer that Surprised Bernabéu
The news of Sergio Ramos's possible transfer for Newcastle has caused surprise even at Real Madrid, where the former captain left a virtually indelible mark. Carlo Ancelotti, the current manager of the white team, has applauded Ramos's decision to embark on this new challenge. Despite the fact that his departure from Real Madrid in 2021 left a void, the Italian coach respects the defender's decision and values his contribution to soccer.
