Sergio Ramos and Rafael Varane and Sergio Ramos have been teaming up with Real Madrid’s central defense for a decade, and have played a key role in the team’s wins at four European Championships over the past decade. However, the Blancos’ back line could go through a shock next season, as it is not yet clear which of the two will continue next season.
Following recent reports regarding the Frenchman who will end his contract in the summer of 2022, the “S” reported this morning that Varane is seriously considering requesting a departure at the end of the season. Needless to say, if he does decide to leave and is not sold this year, Real Madrid will likely lose him without consideration at the end of his contract. It was also reported that Varane was thinking of leaving the book capital in 2019, but Zinedine Zidane’s return to the club changed his mind.
The brakeman himself tends to leave, and will want to consider offers at the end of the season, with one of the top candidates to pick him up being Manchester United. Real Madrid will hope to keep the Frenchman, but if he still insists on leaving, the club will listen to offers. At the same time, the Spanish champions are considering alternatives in the event of the departure of Varan, Ramos or Adar Militau who has not acclimatized at the club, and the nominees are David Alaba who will end his contract at the end of the season, Pau Torres from Villarreal whose release clause is 65 million euros and Jules Conde from Sevilla.
As for Ramos, after in recent weeks there seemed to be a rapprochement between the parties, maybe tomorrow we will finally get an answer regarding the captain’s future. The brakeman will be interviewed tomorrow on Twitter by Spanish network star Ibae Janus, and according to reports, may announce the decision he made tomorrow. Like Alaba, does he know about leaving after 16 years? Or will he ensure his stay until retirement in the Spanish capital?
On the plus side, Ramos and Eden Hazard, who are recovering from injuries, have returned to training with the rest of the team. It is still unclear if they will be included in the squad for Saturday’s Champions League clash against Elche, but the hope is that they will be able to take part in the Champions League quarter-final rematch against Atlanta on Tuesday.
