The Real Madrid hierarchy has reportedly decided that re-signing Sergio Ramos is “impossible,” but they are reportedly open to signing a former Man City Premier League winner.

With Eder Militao’s probable season-ending ACL injury, Ramos has openly toyed with the notion of a spectacular return to the Santiago Bernabeu over the weekend.

 

Ramos is a free agent, thus a transfer would be straightforward for Madrid to accomplish; nonetheless, the Spanish international’s health is a concern for the Spanish club.

According to AS, the 38-year-old hasn’t scored a goal since leaving Sevilla last season, and Real Madrid isn’t sure he can continue to perform at the greatest level.

Real Madrid’s Champions League and La Liga championship defenses have gotten off to a shaky start due to goal-scoring gaffes and an offensive lack of flow; new signing Kylian Mbappe has also had trouble settling in.

After posting an Instagram video of a lung-busting workout in which he ran uphill on an agricultural property while claiming to be “feeling strong,” Ramos revealed his secret desire to return to the club where he became famous.

Although Madrid are not currently in negotiations with the ex-captain, they are looking into other possibilities, and former Los Blancos star Guti has also supported Ramos’s return to the club.

Madrid would rather have Aymeric Laporte, a six-time Premier League winner and current Al-Nassr center back who has previously played for Manchester City, alongside Cristiano Ronaldo.

The opportunity to join one of the world’s most prestigious teams may entice the 30-year-old to return to Europe after he abandoned the sport due to the allure of Saudi Arabia’s lavish lifestyle.

In the meanwhile, Militao will have to endure a long rehabilitation procedure after tearing his right knee in Saturday’s 4-0 thrashing of Osasuna.

Another player to suffer season-ending injury is Dani Carvajal, who finished fourth in the Ballon d’Or voting. Similar things happened to David Alaba in December, and he might not be able to play again until the new year.

This is devastating news for Carlo Ancelotti and Militao, who both missed significant time last season due to injuries to their anterior cruciate ligaments. In the next days, the Brazilian defender will have surgery, according to Madrid.

As a result, Ramos’s most recent video, in which he showed off his rippling physique while unsigned, piqued the interest of viewers.

He also posted his condolences to his former team-mate on X, writing: ‘Strength, Mili. You know the way back, you’ve done it once and you’re going to do it again.’

The Spaniard left Madrid after 16 seasons in 2021 having won five LaLiga and four Champions League titles.

He initially went to Paris Saint-Germain for two seasons before returning to boyhood club Sevilla last campaign.

‘Ready to go back home,’ wrote one fan in the comments section on Instagram.

‘Plz go Real Madrid we don’t have defenders everyone is injured,’ said another.

‘We need you capitano,’ another wrote.

‘Back to Real Madrid button,’ one said, getting over 2,500 likes.

Other supporters even tagged Real Madrid in the comments in a desperate bid to try and thrash out a profitable deal themselves.

The capital city giants have had a reasonable season in LaLiga but are still six points adrift of pacesetters Barcelona, who have won 11 of them 12 league games under Hansi Flick.

Their Champions League form has been uncharacteristic, as the kings of Europe are in the bottom half of the table after two wins and two defeats.

Their losses to Lille and AC Milan see them sitting below comparative minnows such as Brest, Celtic, and Dinamo Zagreb.

But after they were dismantled by Milan in midweek, Ancelotti’s side took out their frustrations with a home lashing of Osasuna, with Vinicius Junior scoring a hat-trick and Jude Bellingham getting back on the scoresheet.
