“Sergio Ramos has informed Sevilla FC that he will not remain at the Nervión club next season, having fulfilled his dream of returning to the club where he developed as a player and where he achieved senior international status. Sevilla FC would like to thank Sergio Ramos for his commitment, leadership and dedication this season, and wishes him good luck in his next professional challenge.”. Through a press release, the Andalusian team, fourteenth in the last Liga season, has made official the departure of Sergio Ramos (38 years old).

Like his compatriots, David Villa or Andrés Iniesta, SR4 could then bounce back in Japan, or even in Turkey, two countries known for welcoming players at the end of their careers.
