Sergio Ramos has refused to make any definite statements about his future at Real Madrid with his contract set to run out at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.
It has been rumoured that Ramos is on his way out of Real Madrid with nothing concrete stated either by Real or the player.
Speculations are also rife that Ramos could either be on his way to the MLS, Premier League or Ligue 1 at the expiration of his current contract but the Legend refused to make a definite statement on his future.
“With my future I was very clear, there is no news and now I have nothing to say,” Ramos told TVE. “When there is news I will be the first to say it.
“We decide the season in two weeks, in LaLiga against Eibar and Barcelona, and in the Champions League against Liverpool, and hopefully we can play at a good level.”
Luis Enrique defended the decision to bring Ramos on so late in the game, despite the defender having only recently recovered from an injury to his left knee that kept him sidelined for two months.
After seeing his side claim their second win in three World Cup qualifiers, courtesy of goals from Dani Olmo, Ferran Torres and Gerard Moreno, the Spain coach described Ramos’ cameo as “a technical decision”.
“Ramos has no further complications,” Enrique told reporters. “I decide which are the best players to start with. It is true that Ramos is fine but he has just come out of an injury from which he has recovered very quickly. That is the reality.
“Those who are in a better disposition play. Whether you like it or not, that’s another question.”
Asked whether the fact Ramos is closing in on Hassan’s appearance record had a bearing on his decision, Enrique said: “The difficult thing about leaders is that they are leaders in any situation.
“When they are substitutes, in the stands, and from there I decide what is best for the team. I want to reward a player who for me deserves to beat all the records.”
