Sergio Ramos could leave Real Madrid after 15 and a half years, writes Marca. Its been written for days that the captain cannot agree with the club on a new contract. Marca announced today that the agreement has practically failed and that Ramos is starting negotiations with other clubs. Which probably means Ramos is leaving Real for good.

“Ramos and Real are very far from an agreement. Neither the player nor Florentino Perez is giving in and nothing has changed since the first day of negotiations. Ramos is holding the club hostage. Real hopes that Ramos will not get a bigger offer than that due to the financial crisis in football. But from this perspective it is unlikely, “Marca writes.

Ramos’ contract expires in the summer and from the first day of this year he can negotiate with other clubs. Real offered him a contract for another season with a salary of 10.8 million euros, but the Spaniard is looking for a contract for two years and a salary of 12 million euros.

“Real offered similar conditions to Luka Modric, who accepted the offer with a ten per cent salary reduction. It is clear that everyone wants Ramos to stay. But because of him, the club’s policy will not change in the shadow of the difficult financial situation.

“Ramos has an offer on the table. it will not change. It is not impossible that they will eventually accept it, but it is hard to expect, “Marca writes. There is serious gossip going around that Ramos is leaving Real.

It was announced last week that Ramos could go to PSG as part of Kylian Mbappe’s transfer. That would mean extending his contract with Real. Ramos arrived at Real from Seville in 2005 for 27 million euros and scored 100 goals in 668 games with 40 assists.
