What next for Sergio Ramos? A look at where he could go if he leaves Real Madrid
Sergio Ramos looks set to leave Real Madrid this summer after a dramatic fall-out with club president Florentino Perez, reports claim.Several Spanish outlets reported a heated argument in the dressing room following Madrids embarrassing 4-1 defeat to Ajax, which knocked them out of the Champions League on Tuesday night.
7Reports suggest Ramos is headed for the door at the BernabeuPerez allegedly threatened to sack Ramos in front of the entire squad, to which the captain responded he would be happy to leave if he was paid the rest of his contract.The Spanish defender missed the last-16 second leg after deliberately getting himself booked in the dying moments of the first leg.And the pair allegedly clashed after Perez ripped into the players, describing their performance as shameful. According to AS, Ramos reacted angrily, provoking Perez to issue the threat, to which the defender said: “Pay me and I will leave.“I have given everything and broken my back for this badge, this club and for you.”So, where could he go?
