The former Real Madrid captain is back in the spotlight following Dani Carvajal’s injury, but his return seems unlikely.
In Real Madrid’s last game, a 2-0 win over Villarreal, Carvajal sustained his injury in a clash with Yeremy Pino.
The right-back has suffered a triple tear in the cruciate ligament, the external collateral ligament, and the patellar tendon, which could see him sidelined for up to ten months.
In these circumstances, Real Madrid may have to consider strengthening their squad in the transfer market, although the initial plan is not to sign players during the winter window.
According to information from the Spanish newspaper Defensa Central, the club has expressed full confidence in Lucas Vazquez to replace Carvajal.
However, new names have emerged on the negotiating table, including Sergio Ramos, who is very popular among fans.
Ramos is a well-known figure among Real Madrid supporters; he left the team in a controversial manner for Paris Saint-Germain in 2021 but expressed regret shortly after.
The newspaper added that Ramos is distinguished by his ability to play in multiple positions, whether as a central defender or as a full-back, making him an attractive option to bolster the defense.
Despite these qualifications, Ramos’s return faces several challenges. One significant hurdle is his advanced age (38 years) and high financial demands; he is expected to request a net salary of six million euros, which could make his return to the new Bernabéu almost impossible.
Furthermore, there are reports that he is close to signing with Juventus, who are seeking a replacement for Bremen, who suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, making his return to the pitch this season highly unlikely.
Under these circumstances, the issue of Sergio Ramos’s return to Real Madrid remains complex, as financial and sporting factors intertwine. While the club focuses on supporting the team during this critical stage, relying on the current players may be the most logical option at this time.
