After emerging through Sevilla’s youth academy and spending two seasons with the senior side, Ramos moved to Real Madrid in the summer of 2005. Since then, he went on to become a mainstay for Real Madrid, and had won 22 major honours, including five La Liga titles and four UEFA Champions League titles, becoming one of La Liga’s top goalscorers from a defensive position. He played a crucial part in the build-up to all four UEFA Champions League wins, being named in the competition Squad of the Season each time. He also scored the equaliser in the 93rd minute of the 2014 UEFA Champions League Final.

Ramos has been named to the FIFPro World11 eleven times; a record for a defender, and the third-most all-time. He has also been elected to the UEFA Team of the Year nine times, also a record for a defender and the third-most of any player. Additionally, Ramos has been named La Liga’s Best Defender a record five times, and to the La Liga Team of the Season in 2015–16. In 2021, he joined Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer.

Internationally, Ramos represented Spain at four World Cups and three European Championships. He won the 2010 FIFA World Cup and the UEFA European Championship in 2008 and 2012, being named to the FIFA World Cup Dream Team in 2010, and the UEFA Euro Team of the Tournament in 2012. He made his first appearance for Spain at the age of 18 and, in 2013, he became the nation’s youngest player to ever reach 100 caps.[6] Ramos currently holds the record as the most capped player in the history of the Spain national team and is his country’s ninth-highest all-time goalscorer. He also holds the record of most international victories for Spain with 131 matches won.

Club careerEdit

SevillaEdit

Born in Camas, Seville, Andalusia,[7] Ramos started playing at Camas CF by the age of 6,[8] then he began his career at local side Sevilla, emerging through the club’s youth system alongside Jesús Navas and Antonio Puerta. He made his first-team – and La Liga – debut on 1 February 2004, coming on as a 64th-minute substitute for Paco Gallardo in a 0–1 away loss against Deportivo La Coruña.[9]

In the 2004–05 season, Ramos appeared in 41 games as Sevilla finished sixth and qualified to the 2005–06 UEFA Cup, scoring in home fixtures against Real Sociedad (2–1)[10] and Real Madrid (2–2).[11] In the 2004–05 UEFA Cup, he scored his first continental goal, heading to conclude a 2–0 win over C.D. Nacional at the Ramon Sánchez Pizjuán in the first round (4–1 aggregate).[12]

Real MadridEdit

2005–09: Record transfer and early daysEdit

Ramos in action in March 2007

In the summer of 2005, Ramos was purchased by Real Madrid for €27 million, a record for a Spanish defender.[13] He was the only Spanish player brought in during Florentino Pérez’s first stint as Real’s president.

At the club, Ramos was assigned the number 4 shirt, previously worn by Fernando Hierro. On 6 December 2005 he netted his first goal for the Merengues, in a 2–1 UEFA Champions League group stage loss at Olympiacos.[14]

During his first seasons, Ramos played as centre back, being also used as an emergency defensive midfielder on occasion. However, with the arrival of Christoph Metzelder and Pepe in the 2007–08 season, he was again relocated to right back. In his first four seasons at Real Madrid, Ramos displayed a goalscoring instinct unusual to many defenders, netting more than 20 goals overall. He also received the first nine of his 24 red cards for the club, including four in his debut season. His first red card came after two bookable offences in a 1–0 away loss to Espanyol on 18 September 2005.[15]

During the 2006–07 season, Ramos scored five goals, including one in a 3–3 El Clásico draw with Barcelona, as Real Madrid won a record 30th league title.[16]

On 4 May 2008, he assisted Gonzalo Higuaín in the 89th minute against Osasuna in an eventual 2–1 away win, the match that sealed the club’s 31st league championship. On the final day of the season, he scored twice in a 5–2 home win against already relegated Levante: one through a header, and another an individual effort; these goals taking his league tally for the 2007–08 season to five.[17]

On 24 August 2008, Ramos scored in the 2008 Supercopa de España second leg against Valencia, making the score 2–1 in an eventual 4–2 and 6–5 aggregate win. The victory came despite Real Madrid playing with only nine men for a long period of time after Rafael van der Vaart and Ruud van Nistelrooy were sent off. Although Ramos experienced a slight dip in form during the early part of the 2008–09 season, he returned to his best and on 11 January 2009, scoring an acrobatic volley in a 3–0 triumph at Mallorca.[18] He continued his scoring run the following week in a 3–1 home win against Osasuna.[19]

Ramos was named in both FIFA and UEFA’s 2008 Team of the Year, adding the FIFPro Team of the Year 2007–08 accolade. He also finished 21st in the European Player of the Year nomination for 2008.[20]

2009–15: Breakout and team mainstayEdit

2009–10 seasonEdit

At the start of the 2009–10 season, Ramos was appointed as one of Real Madrid’s four captains. Because Pepe had suffered a serious knee injury during this campaign, Ramos was often deployed as central defender. He scored four goals in 33 league matches; and, on 21 February 2010 he played his 200th official match for the Los Blancos against Villarreal (150 in the first division). Despite these personal highlights, Real Madrid finished the campaign without picking up any silverware.

2010–11 seasonEdit

Ramos in action in October 2010.

In Real Madrid’s 5–0 loss at Barcelona on 29 November 2010, Ramos was sent off after kicking Lionel Messi from behind, then pushing Carles Puyol in the ensuing melée.[21] After this ejection, he equalled Fernando Hierro’s previous record of ten red cards at the club, despite having played in 264 fewer games.[22] On 20 April 2011, Ramos started in the season’s Copa del Rey final, a 1–0 win against Barcelona in Valencia. In the subsequent victory procession, while celebrating on the top of the club’s bus, he accidentally lost hold of the cup, which fell under the wheels of the vehicle; the trophy was dented as a result.[23]

2011–12 seasonEdit

On 12 July 2011, Ramos extended his contract with Real Madrid until 2017.[24] The following 25 April, in the Champions League semi-finals’ second leg against Bayern Munich, he missed his penalty shootout attempt as Real Madrid lost 3–1;[25] the league campaign ended with them winning, with a record 100 points, after a four-year wait and he was the player with most balls recovered in his team, third overall.[26]

2012–13 seasonEdit

On 9 January 2013, Ramos was sent off for a second bookable offense midway through the second half of an eventual 4–0 home win over Celta Vigo in the 2012–13 Copa del Rey. He subsequently received a four-match suspension, after it was revealed he also insulted referee Miguel Ángel Ayza Gámez.[27] The following month, mere minutes after scoring the second goal at home against Rayo Vallecano and less than 20 minutes into the first half, he received two yellow cards within one minute in the eventual 2–0 home success, taking his red card tally with Real Madrid alone to 16; and 12 in the league.[28][29]

In late February/early March 2013, due to the absence of Iker Casillas due to injury, Ramos captained Real to back-to-back wins over Barcelona in just four days: he netted the 2–1 home winner in the second game, heading home after a corner kick.[30]

2013–14 seasonEdit

On 14 December 2013, Ramos received a club record 18th red card for Real Madrid in a 2–2 draw at Osasuna,[31] but the suspension was later lifted.[32]

His 19th red card came in a 4–3 home defeat to Barcelona, on 23 March 2014.[15] On 26 April, Ramos scored a header against Osasuna in La Liga at the Bernabéu, in a counter-attack which he began with a strong tackle. It was his first goal in La Liga in six months, since his volley against Levante on match-day 8.[33] On 29 April 2014, Ramos scored two headers in four minutes in a 4–0 away win against Bayern Munich in the semi-finals of the Champions League,[34] with the tie ending with a 5–0 aggregate score and Madrid’s qualification to the final for the first time in twelve years. Ramos’ brace against Bayern (4 minutes) was the fastest brace in UEFA Champions League semi-final history at the time.[35] On 4 May, Ramos scored in the 2–2 draw with Valencia at home in La Liga with another header, scoring in back-to-back league games.[36] Just three days later, Ramos scored his first free-kick for a 1–1 draw away to Valladolid, having scored in three consecutive La Liga matches and scoring four consecutive matches for Real Madrid for the first time.[37] On 24 May, in the Champions League final against Atlético Madrid, he headed home in the 93rd minute to tie the game 1–1, and Real Madrid went on to win 4–1 in extra-time to claim ‘La Decima’, their tenth trophy in the competition; he was also chosen by fans as Man of the match.[38] Ramos ended 2013–14 with 7 goals, which made it his highest scoring season for Real Madrid at the time.

2014–15 seasonEdit

Ramos started 2014–15 season on 12 August 2014 by playing the full 90 minutes in a 2–0 win against Sevilla to win their first trophy of the season, the UEFA Super Cup. He then played the two-legged Supercopa de España final against Atlético Madrid with Los Blancos losing 2–1 on aggregate.[39] Ramos scored his first goal of the season on 31 August in week two of La Liga, a header in a 4–2 away loss against Real Sociedad.[40] Ramos scored his 50th Real Madrid goal which came off his knee on 8 November against Rayo Vallecano at the Bernabéu in La Liga as Real Madrid won 5–1.[41]

He scored in both the semi-final and the final of the 2014 FIFA Club World Cup and was voted the Player of the Match in both as Real Madrid won the tournament in Morocco. Ramos was also voted the player of the tournament, winning the Golden Ball.[42][43]

2015–21: Captaincy and sustained successEdit

2015–16 seasonEdit

Ramos agreed a new five-year contract with Real Madrid in August 2015, tying him to the club until 2020. He was also made captain after the transfer of Casillas to Porto.[44] On 8 November Ramos scored his first goal of the season away to Sevilla. In scoring with an overhead kick he was forced to be substituted due to landing on his injured left shoulder.[45]

On 20 December 2015, Ramos captained Madrid to a 10–2 victory over Rayo Vallecano, the club’s highest scoring La Liga victory in 55 years.[46] The following 13 March, he received his 20th red card for Real Madrid in a 2–1 win over Las Palmas, having earlier scored the game’s opening goal with a header from an Isco corner kick. On 2 April 2016, he returned from suspension in a 2–1 victory against Barcelona at Camp Nou, where he was again sent off, receiving his 21st red card and fourth in a Clásico fixture.[15]

Real Madrid reached the 2016 UEFA Champions League Final, where they faced Atlético Madrid. Ramos once again scored in a final, putting Real ahead in the first half. At the time, he was just the fifth player to score in two different Champions League Finals after Raúl, Samuel Eto’o, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. After a second-half equalizer from Atlético, he then scored a penalty in the shoot-out which resulted in Real Madrid winning 5–3; thus, he lifted his first UEFA Champions League trophy as a captain.[47] According to author Michael Cox, he also notably «tipped the balance of the game toward Real Madrid» by tripping Yannick Carrasco up and stopping a three-on-one counter in stoppage time, with 30 seconds remaining and the score 1–1.[48] He was named man of the match by UEFA after the game.[47] By winning the final, Real Madrid earned the right to play against the winners of the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League, Sevilla, in the 2016 UEFA Super Cup.[49] Ramos ended the 2015–16 season with three goals in 33 games which was his lowest goal tally and the fewest matches he played in any season at Real Madrid till then, due to ongoing injuries.

2016–17 seasonEdit

Ramos started in the 2016 UEFA Super Cup in Trondheim, scoring Real Madrid’s equalizing second goal of the match in the 93rd minute, and hence bringing the game into extra-time. Real Madrid were the eventual 3–2 winners, with Ramos being named man of the match.[50] On 3 December 2016, he scored his fourth Clásico goal, an equalizer against Barcelona in a 1–1 draw at the Camp Nou in the 90th minute, extending Madrid’s unbeaten run to 33 games.[51] One week later, he scored another late goal, this time in the 92nd minute, to help Madrid claim a 3–2 victory against Deportivo La Coruña.[52]

On 15 January 2017, Ramos scored an own goal late in the game against Sevilla which levelled the scores at 1–1. Eventually Real Madrid lost the match 2–1 in stoppage time, thus ending their unbeaten streak at 40 matches.[53] A week later, he scored both goals in a 2–1 win over Málaga, registering his 50th goal in La Liga.[54] On 11 February, in a 3–1 victory against Osasuna, Ramos played his 500th match with the club.[55] In the UEFA Champions League round of 16 second leg, Ramos scored an important equalizing header against Napoli in a 3–1 away win as Real Madrid qualified to the quarter-final after winning 6–2 on aggregate. On 12 March, Ramos scored another late header winner for Real Madrid, this time against Real Betis at the Santiago Bernabéu in a 2–1 win, taking his goal tally to 10 for the season – scoring double digit goals in a season for the first time in his career. Ramos’ winner put Real Madrid back at the top of the La Liga table.[56] On 23 April, Ramos was sent off for the 22nd time in his Real Madrid career and fifth time in an El Clásico, after a straight red card for a two-footed challenge on Lionel Messi during a Barcelona counter-attack in their 3–2 home defeat.[57] Real Madrid won their 33rd La Liga title, giving Ramos his fourth league title overall and first as captain.[58][59] They went on to win their first league and European Cup double since 1957–58 season, as the team defeated Juventus in the 2017 UEFA Champions League Final. This also made Ramos the first player to captain a team to back-to-back European Cups in the UEFA Champions League era.[60] His ten goals in 2016–17 made it his then-highest scoring season.[61]

2017–18 seasonEdit

On 20 August 2017, in Real Madrid’s first game of the 2017–18 La Liga, he received his 23rd career red card. It was his 18th in La Liga, a joint highest record. He went on to break that record, seeing his 19th La Liga red in a 0–0 draw with Athletic Bilbao.[62] Ramos scored his first goal of the season on 13 September in the Champions League, scoring a bicycle kick against APOEL on match-day 1.[63] In La Liga, Ramos scored four goals, including two penalties – against Leganes and Sevilla. During the 2017–18 UEFA Champions League, he made eleven appearances, while scoring one goal, when Madrid won their third consecutive and 13th overall Champions League title.[64] Ramos’ performance in the final, however, was met with criticism;[65] a challenge on Mohamed Salah resulted in the Egyptian dislocating his shoulder and missing the rest of the game,[66] and he hit Liverpool keeper Loris Karius in the head with his elbow, the goalkeeper later being diagnosed with concussion.[67][68] Ramos later denied that he intentionally hit Karius, saying that Virgil van Dijk pushed him into Karius.[69] Ramos became the first player to captain a team to three consecutive Champions League triumphs, having now lifted the Champions League in every season as captain.[70]

2018–19 seasonEdit

Ramos began the 2018–19 season scoring a penalty in an eventual 4–2 loss to Atlético Madrid in the 2018 UEFA Super Cup. Taking the penalty ensured Ramos would be the team’s new penalty taker with the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo.[71] On 26 August 2018, Ramos scored another penalty in Real Madrid’s 4–1 away win against Girona, making him the only player along with Lionel Messi to score in each of the last 15 La Liga seasons.[72] One week later, Ramos scored his third penalty of the season, against Leganes in a 4–1 win at the Santiago Bernabéu – his first goal at home since March 2017.[73]

On 20 October 2018, Ramos played his 400th La Liga match for Real Madrid in a 2–1 loss at home to Levante, becoming only the tenth Real Madrid player to reach this milestone.[74] After a run of poor results and the sacking of Julen Lopetegui, Ramos scored his first goal for Real Madrid in two months through a Panenka, against Real Valladolid in Santiago Solari’s first 2018–19 La Liga game in charge of Los Blancos.[75] Two weeks later, on 11 November, Ramos scored another Panenka against Celta Vigo – making them the 25th different team he scored against in La Liga.[76] This was Ramos’ third Panenka from his last four penalties, with the inventor of the penalty, Antonín Panenka, saying Ramos was the best ‘imitator’ of his penalty technique.[77] With five goals in the first three months of the season, Ramos had his best goal-scoring start to a season at Real Madrid.[78] In the 2018 FIFA Club World Cup, Ramos played in both Real Madrid’s semi-final against Kashima Antlers and the final against Al Ain. Ramos scored a header in the final as Real Madrid won 3–1 to claim their third consecutive FIFA Club World Cup.[79] Ramos became the first player to lift three consecutive FIFA Club World Cups while also becoming the first defender to score in two Club World Cup Finals.[80]

On 9 January 2019, Ramos scored a penalty in the Copa del Rey game against Leganés, which was his 100th career goal, excluding 2 goals for Sevilla’s reserve team.[81] To celebrate the goal, Ramos chose to show the number 100 with his fingers.[82] On 24 January, Ramos scored a brace against Girona in the Copa del Rey quarter-final first leg in a 4–2 home win.[83] It was Ramos’ fourth brace for Real Madrid and his first in the Copa del Rey.[84] Three days later, Ramos scored his 10th goal of the campaign with a header against Espanyol in a 4–2 away win, which was also his 60th La Liga goal.[85] With ten goals to his name, Ramos equalled his highest-scoring season at Real Madrid which he set in 2016–17.[86]

On 6 February 2019, Sergio Ramos was playing in the Clásico for the 40th time. Three days later, in the Madrid Derby against Atlético Madrid, Ramos scored his eighth penalty of the season and his 11th goal in all competitions – making it his best goal-scoring season at Real Madrid.[87] Four days later, in the 2–1 Champions League Round of 16 first leg away win over Ajax, Ramos became just the seventh player to play 600 matches for Real Madrid.[88] In the match against Ajax, Ramos was booked for what seemed to be a needless challenge in the 90th minute. The booking meant that Ramos would miss the second leg against Ajax at the Santiago Bernabéu due a suspension of accumulating yellow cards. This sparked controversy after Ramos hinted to journalists in a post match interview that the yellow card was deliberate, which violates UEFA’s rules.[89] Two and a half weeks later, UEFA opened a disciplinary investigation regarding this matter and decided to give Ramos a two-game ban, meaning he will also miss both the Champions League Round of 16-second leg against Ajax and the quarter-final first leg were Real Madrid to qualify.[90] Due to Real Madrid’s elimination by Ajax, the suspension carried onto the next season and Ramos missed the first Champions League game of the 2019–20 season against Paris Saint-Germain.[91]

On 17 February, Ramos played his 601st match for Real Madrid, against Girona in La Liga, equalling the record of Real Madrid legends Fernando Hierro and Paco Gento.[92] Ten days later, Ramos played in his 41st El Clásico, in the Copa del Rey semi-final second leg at home. This was Ramos’ 602nd match for Real Madrid, taking up to him fifth in Real Madrid’s all-time appearances list.[93] On 2 March, Ramos played in the La Liga El Clásico at the Bernabéu, making him equal the all-time record of Paco Gento, Manolo Sanchís and Xavi by playing in 42 Clasicos.[94] On 5 March, Real Madrid were eliminated from the Champions League by Ajax after being thrashed 4–1 at the Santiago Bernabéu (aggregate 5–3 for Ajax).[95] Ramos did not feature due to being suspended after forcing a yellow card in the first leg, thus facing criticism for doing so.[96] Moreover, Ramos faced even more criticism as he was caught with a camera crew in the stands, filming for his new Amazon Prime documentary.[97] Ramos took to his Twitter and Instagram accounts to discuss the controversy surrounding his actions in which he admitted forcing the yellow card against Ajax in the first leg ‘was an error and I take the blame 200%’. Regarding filming the documentary, Ramos claimed there were ‘certain commitments’ made prior and he did not imagine the game would pan out as it did.[98] Ramos picked up a calf injury at the start of April which saw him miss the rest of the campaign and the final eight La Liga matches.[99]

2019–20 seasonEdit

Ramos’ first goal of the season was a header in his first Champions League match of the campaign, against Club Brugge on 1 October at home. The goal came at a vital time as Real Madrid were 2–0 down by half-time but were able to make a comeback after another header by Casemiro. This was also Ramos’ first Champions League goal in two seasons.[100] On 30 October, Ramos scored from the penalty-spot in a 5–0 home victory over Leganés, continuing his run of scoring in 16 straight La Liga seasons, again equalling Messi.[101] One week later, on 6 November, Ramos scored his first penalty in the Champions League, which came against Galatasaray in a 6–0 home win. It was another ‘Panenka’ style penalty and also meant that Ramos scored in two Champions League group matches in the same season for the first time.[102] On 18 December, Ramos played in his 43rd El Clasico, claiming the all-time appearance record for this historic fixture.[103]

On 12 January 2020, Ramos scored the winning penalty in a shoot-out against Atletico Madrid in the Supercopa de España final in Jeddah as Real Madrid won 4–1 on penalties after a 0–0 draw after extra time. This was the first time in Ramos’ career that he scored a winning penalty in a shoot-out.[104] The 2020 Supercopa title was Ramos’ 21st trophy with Real Madrid.[105] A month later, Ramos scored another header in La Liga, this time away to Osasuna as Real Madrid won 4–1 to maintain top position in the table.[106] Ramos’ goal at El Sadar meant that he had scored in 20 different La Liga stadiums.[107] This was Ramos’ first La Liga goal of 2020, meaning he was the only player to score in La Liga in each of the last 17 calendar years – dating back to 2004.[108]

On 26 February 2020, Ramos equalled the record of red cards received in the UEFA Champions League. With four red cards, he shares the unwanted record with Zlatan Ibrahimović and Edgar Davids.[109] This dismissal came in a 2–1 home defeat to Manchester City in the Round of 16 first leg, for a tactical foul on City striker Gabriel Jesus.[109] Four days later, Ramos featured in Real Madrid’s 2–0 win over Barcelona at home in La Liga to leapfrog them into first place.[110] This was Ramos’ 21st consecutive Clasico in all competitions and his 30th in La Liga with Real Madrid.[111]

When La Liga restarted after a three-month hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Ramos scored in Real Madrid’s first game back against Eibar on 14 June at the Alfredo di Stéfano Stadium in a 3–1 win.[112] He also scored the first goal at this stadium in its inaugural match in May 2006.[113] Ramos’ goal began with him winning the ball back from Eibar’s attack a few meters outside Madrid’s own penalty area and ran 70 meters across the pitch to find the pass from Eden Hazard to score his first La Liga goal from open play in over five years.[114] On 21 June, Ramos scored a penalty for Real Madrid in their 2–1 win against Real Sociedad at the Anoeta, which was the 20th consecutive penalty he converted for club and country (including shoot-outs).[115] Three days later, Ramos scored a free-kick against in a 2–0 win over Mallorca at the Alfredo di Stefano to become La Liga’s all-time highest scoring defender with 68 goals, surpassing Ronald Koeman’s 67 with Barcelona.[116] Ramos’ free-kick was also his eighth La Liga goal of the season, making it his most prolific league campaign to date and his tenth in all competitions – hitting double figures for a third season.[117] On 28 June, Ramos featured in the 1–0 away league win against Espanyol, heading the ball down right outside the Espanyol penalty area to Karim Benzema who eventually assisted Casemiro to score the winner right before half-time.[118] This was Ramos’ 645th match for Madrid, moving him up to fourth in the club’s all-time most appearances list joint with Santillana.[119] On 2 July, Ramos scored his fifteenth consecutive penalty for Real Madrid in the 79th minute which proved to be the winner in a narrow 1–0 home win against Getafe – opening up a four-point advantage at the top of La Liga.[120][121] This was Ramos’ ninth league goal of the season – equaling the record set by Argentine international defender Ezequiel Garay in 2006-07 while playing for Racing Santander for a defender with the most goals in a single La Liga season.[122] The penalty against Getafe meant that Ramos had equalled his best goal scoring season (11 goals) which was set last season. Ramos had now scored in four out of six of Madrid’s matches since the restart, more than any other player.[123] Moreover, the goal was his 100th career club goal, and his 70th in La Liga.[124] The win over Getafe was Ramos’ 450th La Liga appearance as a Real Madrid player, becoming just the fifth player to reach this milestone.[125] Three days later, he scored another penalty – his 22nd in a row, and his tenth goal of the season in La Liga – in a 1–0 away win over Athletic Bilbao.[126][127] He also became the first centre-back to score 10 goals in a La Liga season since Fernando Hierro during the 1993–94 season.[128] On 19 July, Ramos scored his eleventh league goal in Real Madrid’s last La Liga game of the season against Leganes in an eventual 2–2 draw, making it his most prolific season in White with 13 goals across all competitions.[129] At the end of the season, Ramos won his fifth league title with Los Blancos and Real Madrid’s 34th overall.[130]

2020–21: Final season at Real MadridEdit

On 27 September 2020, Ramos opened his goal count for the season after netting the winning goal against Real Betis from the penalty spot at Benito Villamarín in a 3–2 league win.[131] One month later on 24 October in El Clasico, Ramos earned and converted a penalty at the Camp Nou in a 3–1 league win – this was his 25th consecutive penalty goal for both club and country (including shoot-outs).[132][133] Ramos’ fifth El Clasico goal equaled the record of Ronald Koeman (who was in the other dugout as manager) as the defenders with the most goals in this historic fixture. This was also Ramos’ 31st consecutive La Liga Clasico, meaning he has not missed one since joining Los Blancos in 2005 – equalling Raúl and Paco Gento as the players who played in the most league Clasicos.[134] Three days later, Ramos played his first Champions League match of the season against Borussia Mönchengladbach, assisting Casemiro’s 93rd minute equaliser in a 2–2 draw.[135] This was Ramos’ 16th Champions League campaign with Real Madrid, equalling the record of club legend, and former captain and teammate Iker Casillas.[136] On 31 October, Ramos became just the 10th player to play 500 La Liga matches (461 for Real Madrid and 39 for Sevilla), as Madrid beat Huesca 4–1 at the Alfredo Di Stefano Stadium.[137] On 3 November, Ramos scored his 100th goal for Real Madrid in all competitions, in a 3–2 win over Inter Milan in the Champions League.[138]

On 14 January, Ramos reportedly took four pain killer injections to his left knee to play against Athletic Bilbao in the 2020–21 Supercopa de España semi-final which Real Madrid went on to lose 2–1.[139] This was the last match Ramos would play before opting for a mid-season surgery for the first time in his career for a torn meniscus in his left knee.[140] He was expected to be out for two months and to return in early April, but after a speedy recovery, Ramos started against Elche on 13 March – just over a month after he went under the knife.[141] Real Madrid’s 2–1 win over Elche was Ramos’ 334th La Liga win (315 with Real Madrid and 19 with Sevilla), equalling the record of Iker Casillas as the players with second–most wins in the Spanish top flight – only behind Messi.[142] Four days later, Ramos played in a Champions League round of 16-second leg for the first time in three years as Real Madrid went on to defeat Atalanta 3–1 at the Alfredo di Stefano (5–3 on aggregate) and qualified for the quarter-finals for the first time since their last Champions League winning campaign in 2018. Ramos scored his 19th consecutive penalty for Madrid in the 60th minute which killed the game, before coming off as a substitute.[143] This was Ramos’ 15th Champions League goal, equalling Gerard Piqué and former teammate Iván Helguera as the second highest scoring defenders in the history of the competition – with only former teammate Roberto Carlos ahead of them.[144] Due to an injury, Ramos missed his first El Clásico since joining Los Blancos, putting an end to a streak of playing in 31 consecutive league Clásicos.[145] He later missed the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals against Liverpool, as he tested positive for COVID-19, although he was also injured.[146] On 5 May, in the Champions League semi-final second leg against Chelsea, his side lost 2–0 and were eliminated from the competition; however, he then sustained an injury in his left hamstring which forced him to miss the rest of the season; this meant he had played his last game for Real Madrid.[147] Ramos played just 21 matches for Los Blancos in 2020–21, making it his most injury-riddled season, after having played at least 33 matches in each of his previous 15 campaigns at the club.[148]

On 16 June, Real Madrid announced that Ramos would leave the club after 16 years.[149] During his farewell event on the next day, Ramos, who had initially asked for a two-year offer, mentioned that he accepted a one-year contract renewal with a salary reduction; however, the offer had expired without his knowledge.[150]

Paris Saint-GermainEdit

2021–22: Transfer to PSGEdit

On 8 July 2021, it was announced that Ramos had signed a two-year contract with Paris Saint-Germain.[151] He chose to wear the number 4 jersey, with Thilo Kehrer switching to the number 24 shirt.[152] Ramos remarked: «I am quite superstitious about it and I love the number 4 because I have worn that number since the start of my career and it has followed me throughout my career and my life, bringing with me much luck and many victories.»[152] During the medical examination required to complete the signing, the medical staff at PSG were reported to be impressed by his seriousness and physique, whilst the medical results were noted to be excellent and incredible.[153][154] The staff compared Ramos’ physique to that of a 25-year-old (he was 35 at the time).[155]

Due to a series of injury problems, Ramos made his first appearance in a matchday squad for PSG ahead of a Champions League group stage game against Manchester City on 24 November 2021.[156] He made his debut four days later in a 3–1 league victory over Saint-Étienne.[157] On 23 January 2022, Sergio scored his debut goal for the club, helping PSG to beat Reims 4–0 in a home league match.[158] Ramos won the 2021–22 Ligue 1 in his first season at the club.

2022–23: Second season at PSGEdit

PSG started the 2022–23 season by winning the 2022 Trophée des Champions in Tel Aviv, in which Ramos scored a goal in a 4–0 win over Nantes.[159]

International careerEdit

Early international career and 2006 FIFA World CupEdit

In 2004, Ramos became an instant hit for Spain’s under-19, for whom he played six international matches. During the 2004 U19 Euro, Ramos was a key figure for Spain as he started in four out of five of their matches on the way to winning their second U19 European Championship, including scoring a decisive penalty in the Semi-final penalty-shoot out against Ukraine.[160][161] On 26 March 2005, in a 3–0 friendly win over China in Salamanca, he first appeared for the senior side at only 18 years and 361 days of age, making him the youngest player to play for the national team in the last 55 years. He held this record until 1 March 2006, when it was broken by Cesc Fàbregas in a friendly match against Côte d’Ivoire.[162]

On 12 October 2005, Ramos scored his first two international goals in a 6–0 away thrashing of San Marino for the 2006 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.[163] He was selected for the final stages in Germany and, after the international retirement of Real Madrid teammate Míchel Salgado, became the undisputed first-choice right-back. Despite wearing the number 4 jersey for Real Madrid, Ramos admitted he wears the number 15 for Spain in memory of his close friend and former Sevilla teammate Puerta, who died in August 2007 and made his Spain debut wearing No. 15.[164][165]

Euro 2008Edit

Throughout Spain’s UEFA Euro 2008 qualifying campaign, Ramos was a regular member of the starting eleven as the national side finished first in its group, above Sweden. He scored two goals, including one in a 3–1 away win over Denmark, in 11 appearances. In the tournament’s final stages, Ramos played in all matches and minutes, except the 2–1 group stage win against Greece. In the final, his pass nearly set up Marcos Senna’s first international goal, but the latter missed his opportunity by inches. During the celebrations after the 1–0 defeat of Germany, he wore a T-shirt in honour of his late friend Puerta.[166]

2009 FIFA Confederations Cup and 2010 FIFA World CupEdit

Ramos was selected in the squad for the 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup in South Africa, as Spain finished in third.[167] On 3 June 2010, he captained Spain for the first time, in a 1–0 friendly win over South Korea in Innsbruck, Austria.[168]

At the 2010 World Cup, held in the same country, Ramos played every minute of the tournament as a right back, helping Spain keep five clean sheets and reach the final, which they won 1–0 against the Netherlands; he topped the tournament’s Castrol Performance Index with a score of 9.79.[169] Despite playing at right-back, he also completed more solo runs than any other player in the tournament, 31.[170]

Euro 2012Edit

Ramos returned to the heart of the defence for Euro 2012. When asked about his role change, he replied: «I have adapted and feel comfortable in the middle, but I am a World and European champion at right-back».[171] He played all the games in Poland and Ukraine alongside Barcelona’s Gerard Piqué and, in the semi-finals against Portugal, he converted his penalty shootout attempt in an eventual 4–2 win (0–0 after 120 minutes), scoring for the eventual champions in Panenka-style.[172] On 1 July, Ramos won his third trophy with the Spanish senior National Team as they thrashed Italy 4–0 in the Final. Ramos’ performances during the Euro earned him a place in the Team of The Tournament.[173] Ramos wore another T-shirt during Spain’s Euro 2012 celebrations to pay homage to his late friend Puerta.[174]

2013 FIFA Confederations Cup and 2014 FIFA World CupEdit

On 22 March 2013, Ramos celebrated his 100th cap by opening the scoring in a 1–1 draw with Finland in Gijón for the 2014 World Cup qualifiers. He became the youngest European player ever to reach that figure in the process, surpassing Germany’s Lukas Podolski.[6] In June, Ramos contested in the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup in Brazil, starting every match as Spain lost to the hosts in the final. He captained the side for their second group game, a 10–0 win over Tahiti at the Maracanã, which is the biggest win of his career.[175] On 30 June, he missed a penalty kick in the 3–0 Confederations Cup Final loss to Brazil.[176]

Ramos was selected for his third World Cup in 2014.[177] He played the full 90 minutes of each of the team’s matches in Brazil, each with a different partner in central defence, as the reigning champions were eliminated from the group stage.[178][179][180]

Euro 2016 and 2018 FIFA World CupEdit

In February 2016, Ramos won the Luis Aragonés Award by Marca which distinguished him as the best player of the national team in the past year.[181] With David de Gea selected ahead of Iker Casillas in Spain’s starting line-up, Ramos captained the team at UEFA Euro 2016. On 21 June 2016, he had a penalty kick saved by Danijel Subašić in a 2–1 loss to Croatia.[182] Spain finished their Euro group as runners-up and crashed out in the Round of 16 against Italy.[183]

On 23 March 2018, days before turning 32, Ramos earned his 150th cap for Spain in a 1–1 friendly draw with Germany in Düsseldorf. Only Iker Casillas had previously reached the mark for the team.[184]

Ramos was included in the Spain squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup and would go into his fourth tournament, and first World Cup as Captain after Iker Casillas missed out.[185] He played in all three of Spain’s Group stage matches as they topped the ‘Group of Death’ ahead of European Champions Portugal.[186] In the Round of 16 against Russia, Ramos believed he scored the opening goal but it was later credited as an Sergei Ignashevich own goal.[187] The match ended 1–1 after extra time and was decided on penalties (4–3) as the hosts eliminated La Roja. Ramos scored Spain’s fourth penalty but it wasn’t enough as teammates Koke and Aspas both had their penalties saved.[188][189]

2018–19 UEFA Nations League and Euro 2020 qualificationEdit

With new coach Luis Enrique, Ramos retained captaincy of the national team. He played in all four of Spain’s 2018–19 UEFA Nations League group matches, becoming the nation’s top scorer in the group with three goals – scoring once against England and twice against Croatia.[190][191] Spain finished second in their UEFA Nations League Group, which saw them miss out on the 2019 UEFA Nations League Finals.[192] In March 2019, Ramos scored the winner in Spain’s first UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying match against Norway through another Panenka penalty in a 2–1 win.[193] This was his tenth penalty of the season, scoring them all. It was also his fifth consecutive match scoring for Spain, which is a personal record.[194] Spain manager Enrique hailed Ramos as a ‘unique player in history’ after the match.[195]

In the second Euro 2020 qualification match, away to Malta, Ramos did not score for the first time in six matches for Spain – failing to extend his scoring streak. However, the match ended 2–0 to Spain which was his 121st win with La Roja, equaling the all-time record of Iker Casillas.[196] On 7 June 2019, Ramos broke the record of most international victories with 122, following a 4–1 victory against the Faroe Islands, scoring Spain’s opening goal in the process.[197] Three days later, ahead of the match against Sweden, Ramos received a plaque from the Spanish Football Federation to commemorate his record.[198] The match ended with a 3–0 win for Spain, where he scored the first goal and extended his tally to 123 international victories.[199] On 5 September 2019, Ramos scored from a penalty kick his 21st international goal to open the score in Spain’s 2–1 away win over Romania in a Euro 2020 qualifier, which made him the joint 10th top scorer in the history of the national team, alongside Míchel.[200] On 8 September, Ramos won his 167th cap for Spain in a 4–0 home win over the Faroe Islands in a Euro 2020 qualifier; with this appearance, he equaled Iker Casillas as Spain’s most capped player of all time.[201] On 12 October 2019, he became the nation’s sole most capped player.[202]

2020–21 UEFA Nations LeagueEdit

On 6 September 2020, Ramos scored a brace in a 4–0 win over Ukraine for the 2020–21 UEFA Nations League, reaching 23 international goals and equaling Alfredo Di Stéfano as Spain’s eighth-highest all-time goalscorer.[203] On 14 November 2020, in a 1–1 draw against Switzerland, he made his 177th appearance for Spain and overtook Gianluigi Buffon’s record for the most international caps received by a European player.[204]

Euro 2020Edit

Ramos was excluded from the squad for UEFA Euro 2020, following an injury-plagued season. His omission marked the first major tournament since Euro 2004 where he was not called for the national team, ending a run of featuring in ten consecutive tournaments.[205]

Player profileEdit

Style of playEdit

Regarded as one of the best defenders in the world, and of all time, Ramos is a physically strong player who excels in the air due to his elevation, eye for goal, and heading accuracy, making him a goal threat on set-pieces;[206][207][208][209][210][211][212][213] he is also a competent and aggressive tackler. In addition to his defensive skills and goal scoring ability,[206][207][208] he is gifted with pace,[209] and is comfortable on the ball,[214] possessing good technical ability, as well as good distribution, passing, and crossing ability,[206][207][208][215] which allows him to carry the ball forward,[216] switch the play with long balls, or play out from the back on the ground.[217][218] According to Spanish sports newspaper Marca, FIFA’s official records confirmed that in 2015, Ramos was clocked at a sprinting speed of 30.6 kilometers per hour, making him one of the fastest footballers in the world at the time.[219] He is also an accurate penalty taker, and is known for often using the Panenka technique when taking them.[220][221] He has also been known to take free kicks, courtesy of his ability to bend the ball and his powerful striking ability from distance.[222][223][224][225][226]

Ramos has earned plaudits for his leadership, athleticism, technical prowess, and his ability to excel both offensively and defensively, as well as his versatility, which allows him to be deployed as a centre-back and as a full-back; in his youth, he often played as a right-back, while he later established himself as a centre-back as his career progressed. Due to his wide range of skills, his former Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has compared him to legendary defender Paolo Maldini; he went on to describe him as «the best defender in the world at the moment» in 2014,[212][215][227] a view which was echoed by Giorgio Chiellini in 2020.[228] Ramos has also occasionally been deployed as a central or defensive midfielder, in particular under Ancelotti during the 2014–15 season.[229] Ramos has been praised for his decisive performances in important games, most notably for Real Madrid, due to his tendency to score crucial goals for his team, and is considered by several pundits to be one of the most reliable performers in high-pressure situations.[B] However, despite his ability as a defender, his tactical sense, consistency, and concentration from match to match have been questioned at times by pundits and other footballing figures, who have accused him of being too impulsive in his challenges or prone to occasional defensive errors throughout the course of a season.[212][228][230][231][232][233][234]

Ramos is also often criticised in the media for using excessive, reckless force while playing, as well as for his lack of discipline and tendency to pick-up an excessive number of unnecessary cards;[235][236][237][238][239][240][241] he has also been accused of diving.[242]

Disciplinary recordEdit

Ramos holds multiple disciplinary records, for Real Madrid, in the Champions League, La Liga, El Clásico, and in the Spain national team.[243]

Ramos holds the record for most carded player in La Liga, with 191 cards. His 171 yellow cards surpass Alberto Lopo, the former record holder for La Liga yellow cards.[244] The remaining 20 are red cards, making Ramos the most sent-off player in La Liga as well. His La Liga card record is higher than any other player’s in the major European leagues, making him the most booked player in all major European top divisions.[245]

In the Champions League, Ramos has amassed 40 yellow cards and 4 red cards (3 of which were straight red cards), making him both the most-carded player and joint-most red-carded player in Champions League history.[246][247]

Lastly, Ramos also holds the record for being the most carded player in the history of the Spanish national team, with 24 yellow cards.[245]

Personal lifeEdit

Ramos entered in a relationship with journalist/presenter Pilar Rubio in September 2012. This was confirmed by both at the FIFA Ballon d’Or.[248] They have four sons together.[249][250][251] On 16 July 2018, Ramos and Rubio got engaged.[252] The couple married in his hometown of Seville on 15 June 2019.[253]

Ramos has been described as a ‘family person’ and has a close relationship with his siblings and parents.[254] Rene, Ramos’s brother, is currently his football agent.[255] Ramos is a fan of bullfighting and he is a personal friend of matador Alejandro Talavante.[256] He celebrated victories for both club and country by playing with a matador’s cape.[257] Ramos is also a keen horse aficionado, owning a stud farm in his native Andalusia specifically dedicated to the breeding of the Andalusian horse.[258] Ramos’ horse, ‘Yucatán SR4’ became a World Champion in 2018.[259]

In June 2014, Ramos was appointed as an ambassador for UNICEF Spain.[260]

Body artEdit

Ramos has more than 42 tattoos, including Jesus and Mary, Star of David in honour of his grandmother, Nena, who gave a pendant of the same design to his mother; in addition, he also has tattoos of a lion, wolf, dreamcatcher, map of Spain, Native American chief, hamsa, FIFA World Cup and Champions League trophies, his family members, among others.[261]

Amazon Prime documentaryEdit

In January 2019, Amazon Prime and Ramos himself announced they will release an eight-episode documentary series on Ramos’ life on and off the pitch known as El Corazón de Sergio Ramos (The Heart of Sergio Ramos). This would be the first ever time the public would see the personal side of Ramos and his family.[262] On 5 March, during Real Madrid’s Champions League Round of 16 second leg match, Ramos was suspended and watched the match from his VIP area in the stands. His reactions were filmed by the Amazon Prime crew.[263] This sparked controversy as Real Madrid lost the match and were eliminated from the Champions League, though Ramos suggested on his social media networks that there were «certain commitments made and it never remotely went through my head that the game could have turned out as it did».[98]

Due to the success of his first docu-series with Amazon, Ramos announced in June 2020 via his social media accounts that Amazon Prime will be releasing another documentary known as La Leyenda Sergio Ramos (The Legend of Sergio Ramos), which highlights his career’s most defining moments. It was released in Spain in April 2021 and will be release world-wide in June and consists of six episodes.[264][265]

Sergio Ramos García (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈseɾxjo ˈramoz ɣaɾˈθi.a];[A] born 30 March 1986) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Ligue 1 club Paris Saint-Germain and the Spain national team. Known for his aggressive play, he is widely regarded as one of the greatest defenders of all time, having formerly played for Real Madrid for sixteen seasons, winning four UEFA Champions League titles along with two UEFA European Championships and the 2010 FIFA World Cup with the national team.[3][4][5]

After emerging through Sevilla’s youth academy and spending two seasons with the senior side, Ramos moved to Real Madrid in the summer of 2005. Since then, he went on to become a mainstay for Real Madrid, and had won 22 major honours, including five La Liga titles and four UEFA Champions League titles, becoming one of La Liga’s top goalscorers from a defensive position. He played a crucial part in the build-up to all four UEFA Champions League wins, being named in the competition Squad of the Season each time. He also scored the equaliser in the 93rd minute of the 2014 UEFA Champions League Final.

Ramos has been named to the FIFPro World11 eleven times; a record for a defender, and the third-most all-time. He has also been elected to the UEFA Team of the Year nine times, also a record for a defender and the third-most of any player. Additionally, Ramos has been named La Liga’s Best Defender a record five times, and to the La Liga Team of the Season in 2015–16. In 2021, he joined Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer.

Internationally, Ramos represented Spain at four World Cups and three European Championships. He won the 2010 FIFA World Cup and the UEFA European Championship in 2008 and 2012, being named to the FIFA World Cup Dream Team in 2010, and the UEFA Euro Team of the Tournament in 2012. He made his first appearance for Spain at the age of 18 and, in 2013, he became the nation’s youngest player to ever reach 100 caps.[6] Ramos currently holds the record as the most capped player in the history of the Spain national team and is his country’s ninth-highest all-time goalscorer. He also holds the record of most international victories for Spain with 131 matches won.

Club career[edit]

Sevilla[edit]

Born in Camas, Seville, Andalusia,[7] Ramos started playing at Camas CF by the age of 6,[8] then he began his career at local side Sevilla, emerging through the club’s youth system alongside Jesús Navas and Antonio Puerta. He made his first-team – and La Liga – debut on 1 February 2004, coming on as a 64th-minute substitute for Paco Gallardo in a 0–1 away loss against Deportivo La Coruña.[9]

In the 2004–05 season, Ramos appeared in 41 games as Sevilla finished sixth and qualified to the 2005–06 UEFA Cup, scoring in home fixtures against Real Sociedad (2–1)[10] and Real Madrid (2–2).[11] In the 2004–05 UEFA Cup, he scored his first continental goal, heading to conclude a 2–0 win over C.D. Nacional at the Ramon Sánchez Pizjuán in the first round (4–1 aggregate).[12]

Real Madrid[edit]

2005–09: Record transfer and early days[edit]

Ramos in action in March 2007

In the summer of 2005, Ramos was purchased by Real Madrid for €27 million, a record for a Spanish defender.[13] He was the only Spanish player brought in during Florentino Pérez’s first stint as Real’s president.

At the club, Ramos was assigned the number 4 shirt, previously worn by Fernando Hierro. On 6 December 2005 he netted his first goal for the Merengues, in a 2–1 UEFA Champions League group stage loss at Olympiacos.[14]

During his first seasons, Ramos played as centre back, being also used as an emergency defensive midfielder on occasion. However, with the arrival of Christoph Metzelder and Pepe in the 2007–08 season, he was again relocated to right back. In his first four seasons at Real Madrid, Ramos displayed a goalscoring instinct unusual to many defenders, netting more than 20 goals overall. He also received the first nine of his 24 red cards for the club, including four in his debut season. His first red card came after two bookable offences in a 1–0 away loss to Espanyol on 18 September 2005.[15]

During the 2006–07 season, Ramos scored five goals, including one in a 3–3 El Clásico draw with Barcelona, as Real Madrid won a record 30th league title.[16]

On 4 May 2008, he assisted Gonzalo Higuaín in the 89th minute against Osasuna in an eventual 2–1 away win, the match that sealed the club’s 31st league championship. On the final day of the season, he scored twice in a 5–2 home win against already relegated Levante: one through a header, and another an individual effort; these goals taking his league tally for the 2007–08 season to five.[17]

On 24 August 2008, Ramos scored in the 2008 Supercopa de España second leg against Valencia, making the score 2–1 in an eventual 4–2 and 6–5 aggregate win. The victory came despite Real Madrid playing with only nine men for a long period of time after Rafael van der Vaart and Ruud van Nistelrooy were sent off. Although Ramos experienced a slight dip in form during the early part of the 2008–09 season, he returned to his best and on 11 January 2009, scoring an acrobatic volley in a 3–0 triumph at Mallorca.[18] He continued his scoring run the following week in a 3–1 home win against Osasuna.[19]

Ramos was named in both FIFA and UEFA’s 2008 Team of the Year, adding the FIFPro Team of the Year 2007–08 accolade. He also finished 21st in the European Player of the Year nomination for 2008.[20]

2009–15: Breakout and team mainstay[edit]

2009–10 season[edit]

At the start of the 2009–10 season, Ramos was appointed as one of Real Madrid’s four captains. Because Pepe had suffered a serious knee injury during this campaign, Ramos was often deployed as central defender. He scored four goals in 33 league matches; and, on 21 February 2010 he played his 200th official match for the Los Blancos against Villarreal (150 in the first division). Despite these personal highlights, Real Madrid finished the campaign without picking up any silverware.

2010–11 season[edit]

Ramos in action in October 2010.

In Real Madrid’s 5–0 loss at Barcelona on 29 November 2010, Ramos was sent off after kicking Lionel Messi from behind, then pushing Carles Puyol in the ensuing melée.[21] After this ejection, he equalled Fernando Hierro’s previous record of ten red cards at the club, despite having played in 264 fewer games.[22] On 20 April 2011, Ramos started in the season’s Copa del Rey final, a 1–0 win against Barcelona in Valencia. In the subsequent victory procession, while celebrating on the top of the club’s bus, he accidentally lost hold of the cup, which fell under the wheels of the vehicle; the trophy was dented as a result.[23]

2011–12 season[edit]

On 12 July 2011, Ramos extended his contract with Real Madrid until 2017.[24] The following 25 April, in the Champions League semi-finals’ second leg against Bayern Munich, he missed his penalty shootout attempt as Real Madrid lost 3–1;[25] the league campaign ended with them winning, with a record 100 points, after a four-year wait and he was the player with most balls recovered in his team, third overall.[26]

2012–13 season[edit]

On 9 January 2013, Ramos was sent off for a second bookable offense midway through the second half of an eventual 4–0 home win over Celta Vigo in the 2012–13 Copa del Rey. He subsequently received a four-match suspension, after it was revealed he also insulted referee Miguel Ángel Ayza Gámez.[27] The following month, mere minutes after scoring the second goal at home against Rayo Vallecano and less than 20 minutes into the first half, he received two yellow cards within one minute in the eventual 2–0 home success, taking his red card tally with Real Madrid alone to 16; and 12 in the league.[28][29]

In late February/early March 2013, due to the absence of Iker Casillas due to injury, Ramos captained Real to back-to-back wins over Barcelona in just four days: he netted the 2–1 home winner in the second game, heading home after a corner kick.[30]

2013–14 season[edit]

On 14 December 2013, Ramos received a club record 18th red card for Real Madrid in a 2–2 draw at Osasuna,[31] but the suspension was later lifted.[32]

His 19th red card came in a 4–3 home defeat to Barcelona, on 23 March 2014.[15] On 26 April, Ramos scored a header against Osasuna in La Liga at the Bernabéu, in a counter-attack which he began with a strong tackle. It was his first goal in La Liga in six months, since his volley against Levante on match-day 8.[33] On 29 April 2014, Ramos scored two headers in four minutes in a 4–0 away win against Bayern Munich in the semi-finals of the Champions League,[34] with the tie ending with a 5–0 aggregate score and Madrid’s qualification to the final for the first time in twelve years. Ramos’ brace against Bayern (4 minutes) was the fastest brace in UEFA Champions League semi-final history at the time.[35] On 4 May, Ramos scored in the 2–2 draw with Valencia at home in La Liga with another header, scoring in back-to-back league games.[36] Just three days later, Ramos scored his first free-kick for a 1–1 draw away to Valladolid, having scored in three consecutive La Liga matches and scoring four consecutive matches for Real Madrid for the first time.[37] On 24 May, in the Champions League final against Atlético Madrid, he headed home in the 93rd minute to tie the game 1–1, and Real Madrid went on to win 4–1 in extra-time to claim ‘La Decima’, their tenth trophy in the competition; he was also chosen by fans as Man of the match.[38] Ramos ended 2013–14 with 7 goals, which made it his highest scoring season for Real Madrid at the time.

2014–15 season[edit]

Ramos started 2014–15 season on 12 August 2014 by playing the full 90 minutes in a 2–0 win against Sevilla to win their first trophy of the season, the UEFA Super Cup. He then played the two-legged Supercopa de España final against Atlético Madrid with Los Blancos losing 2–1 on aggregate.[39] Ramos scored his first goal of the season on 31 August in week two of La Liga, a header in a 4–2 away loss against Real Sociedad.[40] Ramos scored his 50th Real Madrid goal which came off his knee on 8 November against Rayo Vallecano at the Bernabéu in La Liga as Real Madrid won 5–1.[41]

He scored in both the semi-final and the final of the 2014 FIFA Club World Cup and was voted the Player of the Match in both as Real Madrid won the tournament in Morocco. Ramos was also voted the player of the tournament, winning the Golden Ball.[42][43]

2015–21: Captaincy and sustained success[edit]

2015–16 season[edit]

Ramos agreed a new five-year contract with Real Madrid in August 2015, tying him to the club until 2020. He was also made captain after the transfer of Casillas to Porto.[44] On 8 November Ramos scored his first goal of the season away to Sevilla. In scoring with an overhead kick he was forced to be substituted due to landing on his injured left shoulder.[45]

On 20 December 2015, Ramos captained Madrid to a 10–2 victory over Rayo Vallecano, the club’s highest scoring La Liga victory in 55 years.[46] The following 13 March, he received his 20th red card for Real Madrid in a 2–1 win over Las Palmas, having earlier scored the game’s opening goal with a header from an Isco corner kick. On 2 April 2016, he returned from suspension in a 2–1 victory against Barcelona at Camp Nou, where he was again sent off, receiving his 21st red card and fourth in a Clásico fixture.[15]

Real Madrid reached the 2016 UEFA Champions League Final, where they faced Atlético Madrid. Ramos once again scored in a final, putting Real ahead in the first half. At the time, he was just the fifth player to score in two different Champions League Finals after Raúl, Samuel Eto’o, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. After a second-half equalizer from Atlético, he then scored a penalty in the shoot-out which resulted in Real Madrid winning 5–3; thus, he lifted his first UEFA Champions League trophy as a captain.[47] According to author Michael Cox, he also notably «tipped the balance of the game toward Real Madrid» by tripping Yannick Carrasco up and stopping a three-on-one counter in stoppage time, with 30 seconds remaining and the score 1–1.[48] He was named man of the match by UEFA after the game.[47] By winning the final, Real Madrid earned the right to play against the winners of the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League, Sevilla, in the 2016 UEFA Super Cup.[49] Ramos ended the 2015–16 season with three goals in 33 games which was his lowest goal tally and the fewest matches he played in any season at Real Madrid till then, due to ongoing injuries.

2016–17 season[edit]

Ramos started in the 2016 UEFA Super Cup in Trondheim, scoring Real Madrid’s equalizing second goal of the match in the 93rd minute, and hence bringing the game into extra-time. Real Madrid were the eventual 3–2 winners, with Ramos being named man of the match.[50] On 3 December 2016, he scored his fourth Clásico goal, an equalizer against Barcelona in a 1–1 draw at the Camp Nou in the 90th minute, extending Madrid’s unbeaten run to 33 games.[51] One week later, he scored another late goal, this time in the 92nd minute, to help Madrid claim a 3–2 victory against Deportivo La Coruña.[52]

On 15 January 2017, Ramos scored an own goal late in the game against Sevilla which levelled the scores at 1–1. Eventually Real Madrid lost the match 2–1 in stoppage time, thus ending their unbeaten streak at 40 matches.[53] A week later, he scored both goals in a 2–1 win over Málaga, registering his 50th goal in La Liga.[54] On 11 February, in a 3–1 victory against Osasuna, Ramos played his 500th match with the club.[55] In the UEFA Champions League round of 16 second leg, Ramos scored an important equalizing header against Napoli in a 3–1 away win as Real Madrid qualified to the quarter-final after winning 6–2 on aggregate. On 12 March, Ramos scored another late header winner for Real Madrid, this time against Real Betis at the Santiago Bernabéu in a 2–1 win, taking his goal tally to 10 for the season – scoring double digit goals in a season for the first time in his career. Ramos’ winner put Real Madrid back at the top of the La Liga table.[56] On 23 April, Ramos was sent off for the 22nd time in his Real Madrid career and fifth time in an El Clásico, after a straight red card for a two-footed challenge on Lionel Messi during a Barcelona counter-attack in their 3–2 home defeat.[57] Real Madrid won their 33rd La Liga title, giving Ramos his fourth league title overall and first as captain.[58][59] They went on to win their first league and European Cup double since 1957–58 season, as the team defeated Juventus in the 2017 UEFA Champions League Final. This also made Ramos the first player to captain a team to back-to-back European Cups in the UEFA Champions League era.[60] His ten goals in 2016–17 made it his then-highest scoring season.[61]

2017–18 season[edit]

On 20 August 2017, in Real Madrid’s first game of the 2017–18 La Liga, he received his 23rd career red card. It was his 18th in La Liga, a joint highest record. He went on to break that record, seeing his 19th La Liga red in a 0–0 draw with Athletic Bilbao.[62] Ramos scored his first goal of the season on 13 September in the Champions League, scoring a bicycle kick against APOEL on match-day 1.[63] In La Liga, Ramos scored four goals, including two penalties – against Leganes and Sevilla. During the 2017–18 UEFA Champions League, he made eleven appearances, while scoring one goal, when Madrid won their third consecutive and 13th overall Champions League title.[64] Ramos’ performance in the final, however, was met with criticism;[65] a challenge on Mohamed Salah resulted in the Egyptian dislocating his shoulder and missing the rest of the game,[66] and he hit Liverpool keeper Loris Karius in the head with his elbow, the goalkeeper later being diagnosed with concussion.[67][68] Ramos later denied that he intentionally hit Karius, saying that Virgil van Dijk pushed him into Karius.[69] Ramos became the first player to captain a team to three consecutive Champions League triumphs, having now lifted the Champions League in every season as captain.[70]

2018–19 season[edit]

Ramos began the 2018–19 season scoring a penalty in an eventual 4–2 loss to Atlético Madrid in the 2018 UEFA Super Cup. Taking the penalty ensured Ramos would be the team’s new penalty taker with the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo.[71] On 26 August 2018, Ramos scored another penalty in Real Madrid’s 4–1 away win against Girona, making him the only player along with Lionel Messi to score in each of the last 15 La Liga seasons.[72] One week later, Ramos scored his third penalty of the season, against Leganes in a 4–1 win at the Santiago Bernabéu – his first goal at home since March 2017.[73]

On 20 October 2018, Ramos played his 400th La Liga match for Real Madrid in a 2–1 loss at home to Levante, becoming only the tenth Real Madrid player to reach this milestone.[74] After a run of poor results and the sacking of Julen Lopetegui, Ramos scored his first goal for Real Madrid in two months through a Panenka, against Real Valladolid in Santiago Solari’s first 2018–19 La Liga game in charge of Los Blancos.[75] Two weeks later, on 11 November, Ramos scored another Panenka against Celta Vigo – making them the 25th different team he scored against in La Liga.[76] This was Ramos’ third Panenka from his last four penalties, with the inventor of the penalty, Antonín Panenka, saying Ramos was the best ‘imitator’ of his penalty technique.[77] With five goals in the first three months of the season, Ramos had his best goal-scoring start to a season at Real Madrid.[78] In the 2018 FIFA Club World Cup, Ramos played in both Real Madrid’s semi-final against Kashima Antlers and the final against Al Ain. Ramos scored a header in the final as Real Madrid won 3–1 to claim their third consecutive FIFA Club World Cup.[79] Ramos became the first player to lift three consecutive FIFA Club World Cups while also becoming the first defender to score in two Club World Cup Finals.[80]

On 9 January 2019, Ramos scored a penalty in the Copa del Rey game against Leganés, which was his 100th career goal, excluding 2 goals for Sevilla’s reserve team.[81] To celebrate the goal, Ramos chose to show the number 100 with his fingers.[82] On 24 January, Ramos scored a brace against Girona in the Copa del Rey quarter-final first leg in a 4–2 home win.[83] It was Ramos’ fourth brace for Real Madrid and his first in the Copa del Rey.[84] Three days later, Ramos scored his 10th goal of the campaign with a header against Espanyol in a 4–2 away win, which was also his 60th La Liga goal.[85] With ten goals to his name, Ramos equalled his highest-scoring season at Real Madrid which he set in 2016–17.[86]

On 6 February 2019, Sergio Ramos was playing in the Clásico for the 40th time. Three days later, in the Madrid Derby against Atlético Madrid, Ramos scored his eighth penalty of the season and his 11th goal in all competitions – making it his best goal-scoring season at Real Madrid.[87] Four days later, in the 2–1 Champions League Round of 16 first leg away win over Ajax, Ramos became just the seventh player to play 600 matches for Real Madrid.[88] In the match against Ajax, Ramos was booked for what seemed to be a needless challenge in the 90th minute. The booking meant that Ramos would miss the second leg against Ajax at the Santiago Bernabéu due a suspension of accumulating yellow cards. This sparked controversy after Ramos hinted to journalists in a post match interview that the yellow card was deliberate, which violates UEFA’s rules.[89] Two and a half weeks later, UEFA opened a disciplinary investigation regarding this matter and decided to give Ramos a two-game ban, meaning he will also miss both the Champions League Round of 16-second leg against Ajax and the quarter-final first leg were Real Madrid to qualify.[90] Due to Real Madrid’s elimination by Ajax, the suspension carried onto the next season and Ramos missed the first Champions League game of the 2019–20 season against Paris Saint-Germain.[91]

On 17 February, Ramos played his 601st match for Real Madrid, against Girona in La Liga, equalling the record of Real Madrid legends Fernando Hierro and Paco Gento.[92] Ten days later, Ramos played in his 41st El Clásico, in the Copa del Rey semi-final second leg at home. This was Ramos’ 602nd match for Real Madrid, taking up to him fifth in Real Madrid’s all-time appearances list.[93] On 2 March, Ramos played in the La Liga El Clásico at the Bernabéu, making him equal the all-time record of Paco Gento, Manolo Sanchís and Xavi by playing in 42 Clasicos.[94] On 5 March, Real Madrid were eliminated from the Champions League by Ajax after being thrashed 4–1 at the Santiago Bernabéu (aggregate 5–3 for Ajax).[95] Ramos did not feature due to being suspended after forcing a yellow card in the first leg, thus facing criticism for doing so.[96] Moreover, Ramos faced even more criticism as he was caught with a camera crew in the stands, filming for his new Amazon Prime documentary.[97] Ramos took to his Twitter and Instagram accounts to discuss the controversy surrounding his actions in which he admitted forcing the yellow card against Ajax in the first leg ‘was an error and I take the blame 200%’. Regarding filming the documentary, Ramos claimed there were ‘certain commitments’ made prior and he did not imagine the game would pan out as it did.[98] Ramos picked up a calf injury at the start of April which saw him miss the rest of the campaign and the final eight La Liga matches.[99]

2019–20 season[edit]

Ramos’ first goal of the season was a header in his first Champions League match of the campaign, against Club Brugge on 1 October at home. The goal came at a vital time as Real Madrid were 2–0 down by half-time but were able to make a comeback after another header by Casemiro. This was also Ramos’ first Champions League goal in two seasons.[100] On 30 October, Ramos scored from the penalty-spot in a 5–0 home victory over Leganés, continuing his run of scoring in 16 straight La Liga seasons, again equalling Messi.[101] One week later, on 6 November, Ramos scored his first penalty in the Champions League, which came against Galatasaray in a 6–0 home win. It was another ‘Panenka’ style penalty and also meant that Ramos scored in two Champions League group matches in the same season for the first time.[102] On 18 December, Ramos played in his 43rd El Clasico, claiming the all-time appearance record for this historic fixture.[103]

On 12 January 2020, Ramos scored the winning penalty in a shoot-out against Atletico Madrid in the Supercopa de España final in Jeddah as Real Madrid won 4–1 on penalties after a 0–0 draw after extra time. This was the first time in Ramos’ career that he scored a winning penalty in a shoot-out.[104] The 2020 Supercopa title was Ramos’ 21st trophy with Real Madrid.[105] A month later, Ramos scored another header in La Liga, this time away to Osasuna as Real Madrid won 4–1 to maintain top position in the table.[106] Ramos’ goal at El Sadar meant that he had scored in 20 different La Liga stadiums.[107] This was Ramos’ first La Liga goal of 2020, meaning he was the only player to score in La Liga in each of the last 17 calendar years – dating back to 2004.[108]

On 26 February 2020, Ramos equalled the record of red cards received in the UEFA Champions League. With four red cards, he shares the unwanted record with Zlatan Ibrahimović and Edgar Davids.[109] This dismissal came in a 2–1 home defeat to Manchester City in the Round of 16 first leg, for a tactical foul on City striker Gabriel Jesus.[109] Four days later, Ramos featured in Real Madrid’s 2–0 win over Barcelona at home in La Liga to leapfrog them into first place.[110] This was Ramos’ 21st consecutive Clasico in all competitions and his 30th in La Liga with Real Madrid.[111]

When La Liga restarted after a three-month hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Ramos scored in Real Madrid’s first game back against Eibar on 14 June at the Alfredo di Stéfano Stadium in a 3–1 win.[112] He also scored the first goal at this stadium in its inaugural match in May 2006.[113] Ramos’ goal began with him winning the ball back from Eibar’s attack a few meters outside Madrid’s own penalty area and ran 70 meters across the pitch to find the pass from Eden Hazard to score his first La Liga goal from open play in over five years.[114] On 21 June, Ramos scored a penalty for Real Madrid in their 2–1 win against Real Sociedad at the Anoeta, which was the 20th consecutive penalty he converted for club and country (including shoot-outs).[115] Three days later, Ramos scored a free-kick against in a 2–0 win over Mallorca at the Alfredo di Stefano to become La Liga’s all-time highest scoring defender with 68 goals, surpassing Ronald Koeman’s 67 with Barcelona.[116] Ramos’ free-kick was also his eighth La Liga goal of the season, making it his most prolific league campaign to date and his tenth in all competitions – hitting double figures for a third season.[117] On 28 June, Ramos featured in the 1–0 away league win against Espanyol, heading the ball down right outside the Espanyol penalty area to Karim Benzema who eventually assisted Casemiro to score the winner right before half-time.[118] This was Ramos’ 645th match for Madrid, moving him up to fourth in the club’s all-time most appearances list joint with Santillana.[119] On 2 July, Ramos scored his fifteenth consecutive penalty for Real Madrid in the 79th minute which proved to be the winner in a narrow 1–0 home win against Getafe – opening up a four-point advantage at the top of La Liga.[120][121] This was Ramos’ ninth league goal of the season – equaling the record set by Argentine international defender Ezequiel Garay in 2006-07 while playing for Racing Santander for a defender with the most goals in a single La Liga season.[122] The penalty against Getafe meant that Ramos had equalled his best goal scoring season (11 goals) which was set last season. Ramos had now scored in four out of six of Madrid’s matches since the restart, more than any other player.[123] Moreover, the goal was his 100th career club goal, and his 70th in La Liga.[124] The win over Getafe was Ramos’ 450th La Liga appearance as a Real Madrid player, becoming just the fifth player to reach this milestone.[125] Three days later, he scored another penalty – his 22nd in a row, and his tenth goal of the season in La Liga – in a 1–0 away win over Athletic Bilbao.[126][127] He also became the first centre-back to score 10 goals in a La Liga season since Fernando Hierro during the 1993–94 season.[128] On 19 July, Ramos scored his eleventh league goal in Real Madrid’s last La Liga game of the season against Leganes in an eventual 2–2 draw, making it his most prolific season in White with 13 goals across all competitions.[129] At the end of the season, Ramos won his fifth league title with Los Blancos and Real Madrid’s 34th overall.[130]

2020–21: Final season at Real Madrid[edit]

On 27 September 2020, Ramos opened his goal count for the season after netting the winning goal against Real Betis from the penalty spot at Benito Villamarín in a 3–2 league win.[131] One month later on 24 October in El Clasico, Ramos earned and converted a penalty at the Camp Nou in a 3–1 league win – this was his 25th consecutive penalty goal for both club and country (including shoot-outs).[132][133] Ramos’ fifth El Clasico goal equaled the record of Ronald Koeman (who was in the other dugout as manager) as the defenders with the most goals in this historic fixture. This was also Ramos’ 31st consecutive La Liga Clasico, meaning he has not missed one since joining Los Blancos in 2005 – equalling Raúl and Paco Gento as the players who played in the most league Clasicos.[134] Three days later, Ramos played his first Champions League match of the season against Borussia Mönchengladbach, assisting Casemiro’s 93rd minute equaliser in a 2–2 draw.[135] This was Ramos’ 16th Champions League campaign with Real Madrid, equalling the record of club legend, and former captain and teammate Iker Casillas.[136] On 31 October, Ramos became just the 10th player to play 500 La Liga matches (461 for Real Madrid and 39 for Sevilla), as Madrid beat Huesca 4–1 at the Alfredo Di Stefano Stadium.[137] On 3 November, Ramos scored his 100th goal for Real Madrid in all competitions, in a 3–2 win over Inter Milan in the Champions League.[138]

On 14 January, Ramos reportedly took four pain killer injections to his left knee to play against Athletic Bilbao in the 2020–21 Supercopa de España semi-final which Real Madrid went on to lose 2–1.[139] This was the last match Ramos would play before opting for a mid-season surgery for the first time in his career for a torn meniscus in his left knee.[140] He was expected to be out for two months and to return in early April, but after a speedy recovery, Ramos started against Elche on 13 March – just over a month after he went under the knife.[141] Real Madrid’s 2–1 win over Elche was Ramos’ 334th La Liga win (315 with Real Madrid and 19 with Sevilla), equalling the record of Iker Casillas as the players with second–most wins in the Spanish top flight – only behind Messi.[142] Four days later, Ramos played in a Champions League round of 16-second leg for the first time in three years as Real Madrid went on to defeat Atalanta 3–1 at the Alfredo di Stefano (5–3 on aggregate) and qualified for the quarter-finals for the first time since their last Champions League winning campaign in 2018. Ramos scored his 19th consecutive penalty for Madrid in the 60th minute which killed the game, before coming off as a substitute.[143] This was Ramos’ 15th Champions League goal, equalling Gerard Piqué and former teammate Iván Helguera as the second highest scoring defenders in the history of the competition – with only former teammate Roberto Carlos ahead of them.[144] Due to an injury, Ramos missed his first El Clásico since joining Los Blancos, putting an end to a streak of playing in 31 consecutive league Clásicos.[145] He later missed the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals against Liverpool, as he tested positive for COVID-19, although he was also injured.[146] On 5 May, in the Champions League semi-final second leg against Chelsea, his side lost 2–0 and were eliminated from the competition; however, he then sustained an injury in his left hamstring which forced him to miss the rest of the season; this meant he had played his last game for Real Madrid.[147] Ramos played just 21 matches for Los Blancos in 2020–21, making it his most injury-riddled season, after having played at least 33 matches in each of his previous 15 campaigns at the club.[148]

On 16 June, Real Madrid announced that Ramos would leave the club after 16 years.[149] During his farewell event on the next day, Ramos, who had initially asked for a two-year offer, mentioned that he accepted a one-year contract renewal with a salary reduction; however, the offer had expired without his knowledge.[150]

Paris Saint-Germain[edit]

2021–22: Transfer to PSG[edit]

On 8 July 2021, it was announced that Ramos had signed a two-year contract with Paris Saint-Germain.[151] He chose to wear the number 4 jersey, with Thilo Kehrer switching to the number 24 shirt.[152] Ramos remarked: «I am quite superstitious about it and I love the number 4 because I have worn that number since the start of my career and it has followed me throughout my career and my life, bringing with me much luck and many victories.»[152] During the medical examination required to complete the signing, the medical staff at PSG were reported to be impressed by his seriousness and physique, whilst the medical results were noted to be excellent and incredible.[153][154] The staff compared Ramos’ physique to that of a 25-year-old (he was 35 at the time).[155]

Due to a series of injury problems, Ramos made his first appearance in a matchday squad for PSG ahead of a Champions League group stage game against Manchester City on 24 November 2021.[156] He made his debut four days later in a 3–1 league victory over Saint-Étienne.[157] On 23 January 2022, Sergio scored his debut goal for the club, helping PSG to beat Reims 4–0 in a home league match.[158] Ramos won the 2021–22 Ligue 1 in his first season at the club.

2022–23: Second season at PSG[edit]

PSG started the 2022–23 season by winning the 2022 Trophée des Champions in Tel Aviv, in which Ramos scored a goal in a 4–0 win over Nantes.[159]

International career[edit]

Early international career and 2006 FIFA World Cup[edit]

In 2004, Ramos became an instant hit for Spain’s under-19, for whom he played six international matches. During the 2004 U19 Euro, Ramos was a key figure for Spain as he started in four out of five of their matches on the way to winning their second U19 European Championship, including scoring a decisive penalty in the Semi-final penalty-shoot out against Ukraine.[160][161] On 26 March 2005, in a 3–0 friendly win over China in Salamanca, he first appeared for the senior side at only 18 years and 361 days of age, making him the youngest player to play for the national team in the last 55 years. He held this record until 1 March 2006, when it was broken by Cesc Fàbregas in a friendly match against Côte d’Ivoire.[162]

On 12 October 2005, Ramos scored his first two international goals in a 6–0 away thrashing of San Marino for the 2006 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.[163] He was selected for the final stages in Germany and, after the international retirement of Real Madrid teammate Míchel Salgado, became the undisputed first-choice right-back. Despite wearing the number 4 jersey for Real Madrid, Ramos admitted he wears the number 15 for Spain in memory of his close friend and former Sevilla teammate Puerta, who died in August 2007 and made his Spain debut wearing No. 15.[164][165]

Euro 2008[edit]

Throughout Spain’s UEFA Euro 2008 qualifying campaign, Ramos was a regular member of the starting eleven as the national side finished first in its group, above Sweden. He scored two goals, including one in a 3–1 away win over Denmark, in 11 appearances. In the tournament’s final stages, Ramos played in all matches and minutes, except the 2–1 group stage win against Greece. In the final, his pass nearly set up Marcos Senna’s first international goal, but the latter missed his opportunity by inches. During the celebrations after the 1–0 defeat of Germany, he wore a T-shirt in honour of his late friend Puerta.[166]

2009 FIFA Confederations Cup and 2010 FIFA World Cup[edit]

Ramos was selected in the squad for the 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup in South Africa, as Spain finished in third.[167] On 3 June 2010, he captained Spain for the first time, in a 1–0 friendly win over South Korea in Innsbruck, Austria.[168]

At the 2010 World Cup, held in the same country, Ramos played every minute of the tournament as a right back, helping Spain keep five clean sheets and reach the final, which they won 1–0 against the Netherlands; he topped the tournament’s Castrol Performance Index with a score of 9.79.[169] Despite playing at right-back, he also completed more solo runs than any other player in the tournament, 31.[170]

Euro 2012[edit]

Ramos returned to the heart of the defence for Euro 2012. When asked about his role change, he replied: «I have adapted and feel comfortable in the middle, but I am a World and European champion at right-back».[171] He played all the games in Poland and Ukraine alongside Barcelona’s Gerard Piqué and, in the semi-finals against Portugal, he converted his penalty shootout attempt in an eventual 4–2 win (0–0 after 120 minutes), scoring for the eventual champions in Panenka-style.[172] On 1 July, Ramos won his third trophy with the Spanish senior National Team as they thrashed Italy 4–0 in the Final. Ramos’ performances during the Euro earned him a place in the Team of The Tournament.[173] Ramos wore another T-shirt during Spain’s Euro 2012 celebrations to pay homage to his late friend Puerta.[174]

2013 FIFA Confederations Cup and 2014 FIFA World Cup[edit]

On 22 March 2013, Ramos celebrated his 100th cap by opening the scoring in a 1–1 draw with Finland in Gijón for the 2014 World Cup qualifiers. He became the youngest European player ever to reach that figure in the process, surpassing Germany’s Lukas Podolski.[6] In June, Ramos contested in the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup in Brazil, starting every match as Spain lost to the hosts in the final. He captained the side for their second group game, a 10–0 win over Tahiti at the Maracanã, which is the biggest win of his career.[175] On 30 June, he missed a penalty kick in the 3–0 Confederations Cup Final loss to Brazil.[176]

Ramos was selected for his third World Cup in 2014.[177] He played the full 90 minutes of each of the team’s matches in Brazil, each with a different partner in central defence, as the reigning champions were eliminated from the group stage.[178][179][180]

Euro 2016 and 2018 FIFA World Cup[edit]

In February 2016, Ramos won the Luis Aragonés Award by Marca which distinguished him as the best player of the national team in the past year.[181] With David de Gea selected ahead of Iker Casillas in Spain’s starting line-up, Ramos captained the team at UEFA Euro 2016. On 21 June 2016, he had a penalty kick saved by Danijel Subašić in a 2–1 loss to Croatia.[182] Spain finished their Euro group as runners-up and crashed out in the Round of 16 against Italy.[183]

On 23 March 2018, days before turning 32, Ramos earned his 150th cap for Spain in a 1–1 friendly draw with Germany in Düsseldorf. Only Iker Casillas had previously reached the mark for the team.[184]

Ramos was included in the Spain squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup and would go into his fourth tournament, and first World Cup as Captain after Iker Casillas missed out.[185] He played in all three of Spain’s Group stage matches as they topped the ‘Group of Death’ ahead of European Champions Portugal.[186] In the Round of 16 against Russia, Ramos believed he scored the opening goal but it was later credited as an Sergei Ignashevich own goal.[187] The match ended 1–1 after extra time and was decided on penalties (4–3) as the hosts eliminated La Roja. Ramos scored Spain’s fourth penalty but it wasn’t enough as teammates Koke and Aspas both had their penalties saved.[188][189]

2018–19 UEFA Nations League and Euro 2020 qualification[edit]

With new coach Luis Enrique, Ramos retained captaincy of the national team. He played in all four of Spain’s 2018–19 UEFA Nations League group matches, becoming the nation’s top scorer in the group with three goals – scoring once against England and twice against Croatia.[190][191] Spain finished second in their UEFA Nations League Group, which saw them miss out on the 2019 UEFA Nations League Finals.[192] In March 2019, Ramos scored the winner in Spain’s first UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying match against Norway through another Panenka penalty in a 2–1 win.[193] This was his tenth penalty of the season, scoring them all. It was also his fifth consecutive match scoring for Spain, which is a personal record.[194] Spain manager Enrique hailed Ramos as a ‘unique player in history’ after the match.[195]

In the second Euro 2020 qualification match, away to Malta, Ramos did not score for the first time in six matches for Spain – failing to extend his scoring streak. However, the match ended 2–0 to Spain which was his 121st win with La Roja, equaling the all-time record of Iker Casillas.[196] On 7 June 2019, Ramos broke the record of most international victories with 122, following a 4–1 victory against the Faroe Islands, scoring Spain’s opening goal in the process.[197] Three days later, ahead of the match against Sweden, Ramos received a plaque from the Spanish Football Federation to commemorate his record.[198] The match ended with a 3–0 win for Spain, where he scored the first goal and extended his tally to 123 international victories.[199] On 5 September 2019, Ramos scored from a penalty kick his 21st international goal to open the score in Spain’s 2–1 away win over Romania in a Euro 2020 qualifier, which made him the joint 10th top scorer in the history of the national team, alongside Míchel.[200] On 8 September, Ramos won his 167th cap for Spain in a 4–0 home win over the Faroe Islands in a Euro 2020 qualifier; with this appearance, he equaled Iker Casillas as Spain’s most capped player of all time.[201] On 12 October 2019, he became the nation’s sole most capped player.[202]

2020–21 UEFA Nations League[edit]

On 6 September 2020, Ramos scored a brace in a 4–0 win over Ukraine for the 2020–21 UEFA Nations League, reaching 23 international goals and equaling Alfredo Di Stéfano as Spain’s eighth-highest all-time goalscorer.[203] On 14 November 2020, in a 1–1 draw against Switzerland, he made his 177th appearance for Spain and overtook Gianluigi Buffon’s record for the most international caps received by a European player.[204]

Euro 2020[edit]

Ramos was excluded from the squad for UEFA Euro 2020, following an injury-plagued season. His omission marked the first major tournament since Euro 2004 where he was not called for the national team, ending a run of featuring in ten consecutive tournaments.[205]

Player profile[edit]

Style of play[edit]

Regarded as one of the best defenders in the world, and of all time, Ramos is a physically strong player who excels in the air due to his elevation, eye for goal, and heading accuracy, making him a goal threat on set-pieces;[206][207][208][209][210][211][212][213] he is also a competent and aggressive tackler. In addition to his defensive skills and goal scoring ability,[206][207][208] he is gifted with pace,[209] and is comfortable on the ball,[214] possessing good technical ability, as well as good distribution, passing, and crossing ability,[206][207][208][215] which allows him to carry the ball forward,[216] switch the play with long balls, or play out from the back on the ground.[217][218] According to Spanish sports newspaper Marca, FIFA’s official records confirmed that in 2015, Ramos was clocked at a sprinting speed of 30.6 kilometers per hour, making him one of the fastest footballers in the world at the time.[219] He is also an accurate penalty taker, and is known for often using the Panenka technique when taking them.[220][221] He has also been known to take free kicks, courtesy of his ability to bend the ball and his powerful striking ability from distance.[222][223][224][225][226]

Ramos has earned plaudits for his leadership, athleticism, technical prowess, and his ability to excel both offensively and defensively, as well as his versatility, which allows him to be deployed as a centre-back and as a full-back; in his youth, he often played as a right-back, while he later established himself as a centre-back as his career progressed. Due to his wide range of skills, his former Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has compared him to legendary defender Paolo Maldini; he went on to describe him as «the best defender in the world at the moment» in 2014,[212][215][227] a view which was echoed by Giorgio Chiellini in 2020.[228] Ramos has also occasionally been deployed as a central or defensive midfielder, in particular under Ancelotti during the 2014–15 season.[229] Ramos has been praised for his decisive performances in important games, most notably for Real Madrid, due to his tendency to score crucial goals for his team, and is considered by several pundits to be one of the most reliable performers in high-pressure situations.[B] However, despite his ability as a defender, his tactical sense, consistency, and concentration from match to match have been questioned at times by pundits and other footballing figures, who have accused him of being too impulsive in his challenges or prone to occasional defensive errors throughout the course of a season.[212][228][230][231][232][233][234]

Ramos is also often criticised in the media for using excessive, reckless force while playing, as well as for his lack of discipline and tendency to pick-up an excessive number of unnecessary cards;[235][236][237][238][239][240][241] he has also been accused of diving.[242]

Disciplinary record[edit]

Ramos holds multiple disciplinary records, for Real Madrid, in the Champions League, La Liga, El Clásico, and in the Spain national team.[243]

Ramos holds the record for most carded player in La Liga, with 191 cards. His 171 yellow cards surpass Alberto Lopo, the former record holder for La Liga yellow cards.[244] The remaining 20 are red cards, making Ramos the most sent-off player in La Liga as well. His La Liga card record is higher than any other player’s in the major European leagues, making him the most booked player in all major European top divisions.[245]

In the Champions League, Ramos has amassed 40 yellow cards and 4 red cards (3 of which were straight red cards), making him both the most-carded player and joint-most red-carded player in Champions League history.[246][247]

Lastly, Ramos also holds the record for being the most carded player in the history of the Spanish national team, with 24 yellow cards.[245]

Personal life[edit]

Ramos entered in a relationship with journalist/presenter Pilar Rubio in September 2012. This was confirmed by both at the FIFA Ballon d’Or.[248] They have four sons together.[249][250][251] On 16 July 2018, Ramos and Rubio got engaged.[252] The couple married in his hometown of Seville on 15 June 2019.[253]

Ramos has been described as a ‘family person’ and has a close relationship with his siblings and parents.[254] Rene, Ramos’s brother, is currently his football agent.[255] Ramos is a fan of bullfighting and he is a personal friend of matador Alejandro Talavante.[256] He celebrated victories for both club and country by playing with a matador’s cape.[257] Ramos is also a keen horse aficionado, owning a stud farm in his native Andalusia specifically dedicated to the breeding of the Andalusian horse.[258] Ramos’ horse, ‘Yucatán SR4’ became a World Champion in 2018.[259]

In June 2014, Ramos was appointed as an ambassador for UNICEF Spain.[260]

Body art[edit]

Ramos has more than 42 tattoos, including Jesus and Mary, Star of David in honour of his grandmother, Nena, who gave a pendant of the same design to his mother; in addition, he also has tattoos of a lion, wolf, dreamcatcher, map of Spain, Native American chief, hamsa, FIFA World Cup and Champions League trophies, his family members, among others.[261]

Amazon Prime documentary[edit]

In January 2019, Amazon Prime and Ramos himself announced they will release an eight-episode documentary series on Ramos’ life on and off the pitch known as El Corazón de Sergio Ramos (The Heart of Sergio Ramos). This would be the first ever time the public would see the personal side of Ramos and his family.[262] On 5 March, during Real Madrid’s Champions League Round of 16 second leg match, Ramos was suspended and watched the match from his VIP area in the stands. His reactions were filmed by the Amazon Prime crew.[263] This sparked controversy as Real Madrid lost the match and were eliminated from the Champions League, though Ramos suggested on his social media networks that there were «certain commitments made and it never remotely went through my head that the game could have turned out as it did».[98]

Due to the success of his first docu-series with Amazon, Ramos announced in June 2020 via his social media accounts that Amazon Prime will be releasing another documentary known as La Leyenda Sergio Ramos (The Legend of Sergio Ramos), which highlights his career’s most defining moments. It was released in Spain in April 2021 and will be release world-wide in June and consists of six episodes.[264][265]

Sergio Ramos García (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈseɾxjo ˈramoz ɣaɾˈθi.a];[A] born 30 March 1986) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Ligue 1 club Paris Saint-Germain and the Spain national team. Known for his aggressive play, he is widely regarded as one of the greatest defenders of all time, having formerly played for Real Madrid for sixteen seasons, winning four UEFA Champions League titles along with two UEFA European Championships and the 2010 FIFA World Cup with the national team.[3][4][5]

After emerging through Sevilla’s youth academy and spending two seasons with the senior side, Ramos moved to Real Madrid in the summer of 2005. Since then, he went on to become a mainstay for Real Madrid, and had won 22 major honours, including five La Liga titles and four UEFA Champions League titles, becoming one of La Liga’s top goalscorers from a defensive position. He played a crucial part in the build-up to all four UEFA Champions League wins, being named in the competition Squad of the Season each time. He also scored the equaliser in the 93rd minute of the 2014 UEFA Champions League Final.

Ramos has been named to the FIFPro World11 eleven times; a record for a defender, and the third-most all-time. He has also been elected to the UEFA Team of the Year nine times, also a record for a defender and the third-most of any player. Additionally, Ramos has been named La Liga’s Best Defender a record five times, and to the La Liga Team of the Season in 2015–16. In 2021, he joined Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer.

Internationally, Ramos represented Spain at four World Cups and three European Championships. He won the 2010 FIFA World Cup and the UEFA European Championship in 2008 and 2012, being named to the FIFA World Cup Dream Team in 2010, and the UEFA Euro Team of the Tournament in 2012. He made his first appearance for Spain at the age of 18 and, in 2013, he became the nation’s youngest player to ever reach 100 caps.[6] Ramos currently holds the record as the most capped player in the history of the Spain national team and is his country’s ninth-highest all-time goalscorer. He also holds the record of most international victories for Spain with 131 matches won.

Club career[edit]

Sevilla[edit]

Born in Camas, Seville, Andalusia,[7] Ramos started playing at Camas CF by the age of 6,[8] then he began his career at local side Sevilla, emerging through the club’s youth system alongside Jesús Navas and Antonio Puerta. He made his first-team – and La Liga – debut on 1 February 2004, coming on as a 64th-minute substitute for Paco Gallardo in a 0–1 away loss against Deportivo La Coruña.[9]

In the 2004–05 season, Ramos appeared in 41 games as Sevilla finished sixth and qualified to the 2005–06 UEFA Cup, scoring in home fixtures against Real Sociedad (2–1)[10] and Real Madrid (2–2).[11] In the 2004–05 UEFA Cup, he scored his first continental goal, heading to conclude a 2–0 win over C.D. Nacional at the Ramon Sánchez Pizjuán in the first round (4–1 aggregate).[12]

Real Madrid[edit]

2005–09: Record transfer and early days[edit]

Ramos in action in March 2007

In the summer of 2005, Ramos was purchased by Real Madrid for €27 million, a record for a Spanish defender.[13] He was the only Spanish player brought in during Florentino Pérez’s first stint as Real’s president.

At the club, Ramos was assigned the number 4 shirt, previously worn by Fernando Hierro. On 6 December 2005 he netted his first goal for the Merengues, in a 2–1 UEFA Champions League group stage loss at Olympiacos.[14]

During his first seasons, Ramos played as centre back, being also used as an emergency defensive midfielder on occasion. However, with the arrival of Christoph Metzelder and Pepe in the 2007–08 season, he was again relocated to right back. In his first four seasons at Real Madrid, Ramos displayed a goalscoring instinct unusual to many defenders, netting more than 20 goals overall. He also received the first nine of his 24 red cards for the club, including four in his debut season. His first red card came after two bookable offences in a 1–0 away loss to Espanyol on 18 September 2005.[15]

During the 2006–07 season, Ramos scored five goals, including one in a 3–3 El Clásico draw with Barcelona, as Real Madrid won a record 30th league title.[16]

On 4 May 2008, he assisted Gonzalo Higuaín in the 89th minute against Osasuna in an eventual 2–1 away win, the match that sealed the club’s 31st league championship. On the final day of the season, he scored twice in a 5–2 home win against already relegated Levante: one through a header, and another an individual effort; these goals taking his league tally for the 2007–08 season to five.[17]

On 24 August 2008, Ramos scored in the 2008 Supercopa de España second leg against Valencia, making the score 2–1 in an eventual 4–2 and 6–5 aggregate win. The victory came despite Real Madrid playing with only nine men for a long period of time after Rafael van der Vaart and Ruud van Nistelrooy were sent off. Although Ramos experienced a slight dip in form during the early part of the 2008–09 season, he returned to his best and on 11 January 2009, scoring an acrobatic volley in a 3–0 triumph at Mallorca.[18] He continued his scoring run the following week in a 3–1 home win against Osasuna.[19]

Ramos was named in both FIFA and UEFA’s 2008 Team of the Year, adding the FIFPro Team of the Year 2007–08 accolade. He also finished 21st in the European Player of the Year nomination for 2008.[20]

2009–15: Breakout and team mainstay[edit]

2009–10 season[edit]

At the start of the 2009–10 season, Ramos was appointed as one of Real Madrid’s four captains. Because Pepe had suffered a serious knee injury during this campaign, Ramos was often deployed as central defender. He scored four goals in 33 league matches; and, on 21 February 2010 he played his 200th official match for the Los Blancos against Villarreal (150 in the first division). Despite these personal highlights, Real Madrid finished the campaign without picking up any silverware.

2010–11 season[edit]

Ramos in action in October 2010.

In Real Madrid’s 5–0 loss at Barcelona on 29 November 2010, Ramos was sent off after kicking Lionel Messi from behind, then pushing Carles Puyol in the ensuing melée.[21] After this ejection, he equalled Fernando Hierro’s previous record of ten red cards at the club, despite having played in 264 fewer games.[22] On 20 April 2011, Ramos started in the season’s Copa del Rey final, a 1–0 win against Barcelona in Valencia. In the subsequent victory procession, while celebrating on the top of the club’s bus, he accidentally lost hold of the cup, which fell under the wheels of the vehicle; the trophy was dented as a result.[23]

2011–12 season[edit]

On 12 July 2011, Ramos extended his contract with Real Madrid until 2017.[24] The following 25 April, in the Champions League semi-finals’ second leg against Bayern Munich, he missed his penalty shootout attempt as Real Madrid lost 3–1;[25] the league campaign ended with them winning, with a record 100 points, after a four-year wait and he was the player with most balls recovered in his team, third overall.[26]

2012–13 season[edit]

On 9 January 2013, Ramos was sent off for a second bookable offense midway through the second half of an eventual 4–0 home win over Celta Vigo in the 2012–13 Copa del Rey. He subsequently received a four-match suspension, after it was revealed he also insulted referee Miguel Ángel Ayza Gámez.[27] The following month, mere minutes after scoring the second goal at home against Rayo Vallecano and less than 20 minutes into the first half, he received two yellow cards within one minute in the eventual 2–0 home success, taking his red card tally with Real Madrid alone to 16; and 12 in the league.[28][29]

In late February/early March 2013, due to the absence of Iker Casillas due to injury, Ramos captained Real to back-to-back wins over Barcelona in just four days: he netted the 2–1 home winner in the second game, heading home after a corner kick.[30]

2013–14 season[edit]

On 14 December 2013, Ramos received a club record 18th red card for Real Madrid in a 2–2 draw at Osasuna,[31] but the suspension was later lifted.[32]

His 19th red card came in a 4–3 home defeat to Barcelona, on 23 March 2014.[15] On 26 April, Ramos scored a header against Osasuna in La Liga at the Bernabéu, in a counter-attack which he began with a strong tackle. It was his first goal in La Liga in six months, since his volley against Levante on match-day 8.[33] On 29 April 2014, Ramos scored two headers in four minutes in a 4–0 away win against Bayern Munich in the semi-finals of the Champions League,[34] with the tie ending with a 5–0 aggregate score and Madrid’s qualification to the final for the first time in twelve years. Ramos’ brace against Bayern (4 minutes) was the fastest brace in UEFA Champions League semi-final history at the time.[35] On 4 May, Ramos scored in the 2–2 draw with Valencia at home in La Liga with another header, scoring in back-to-back league games.[36] Just three days later, Ramos scored his first free-kick for a 1–1 draw away to Valladolid, having scored in three consecutive La Liga matches and scoring four consecutive matches for Real Madrid for the first time.[37] On 24 May, in the Champions League final against Atlético Madrid, he headed home in the 93rd minute to tie the game 1–1, and Real Madrid went on to win 4–1 in extra-time to claim ‘La Decima’, their tenth trophy in the competition; he was also chosen by fans as Man of the match.[38] Ramos ended 2013–14 with 7 goals, which made it his highest scoring season for Real Madrid at the time.

2014–15 season[edit]

Ramos started 2014–15 season on 12 August 2014 by playing the full 90 minutes in a 2–0 win against Sevilla to win their first trophy of the season, the UEFA Super Cup. He then played the two-legged Supercopa de España final against Atlético Madrid with Los Blancos losing 2–1 on aggregate.[39] Ramos scored his first goal of the season on 31 August in week two of La Liga, a header in a 4–2 away loss against Real Sociedad.[40] Ramos scored his 50th Real Madrid goal which came off his knee on 8 November against Rayo Vallecano at the Bernabéu in La Liga as Real Madrid won 5–1.[41]

He scored in both the semi-final and the final of the 2014 FIFA Club World Cup and was voted the Player of the Match in both as Real Madrid won the tournament in Morocco. Ramos was also voted the player of the tournament, winning the Golden Ball.[42][43]

2015–21: Captaincy and sustained success[edit]

2015–16 season[edit]

Ramos agreed a new five-year contract with Real Madrid in August 2015, tying him to the club until 2020. He was also made captain after the transfer of Casillas to Porto.[44] On 8 November Ramos scored his first goal of the season away to Sevilla. In scoring with an overhead kick he was forced to be substituted due to landing on his injured left shoulder.[45]

On 20 December 2015, Ramos captained Madrid to a 10–2 victory over Rayo Vallecano, the club’s highest scoring La Liga victory in 55 years.[46] The following 13 March, he received his 20th red card for Real Madrid in a 2–1 win over Las Palmas, having earlier scored the game’s opening goal with a header from an Isco corner kick. On 2 April 2016, he returned from suspension in a 2–1 victory against Barcelona at Camp Nou, where he was again sent off, receiving his 21st red card and fourth in a Clásico fixture.[15]

Real Madrid reached the 2016 UEFA Champions League Final, where they faced Atlético Madrid. Ramos once again scored in a final, putting Real ahead in the first half. At the time, he was just the fifth player to score in two different Champions League Finals after Raúl, Samuel Eto’o, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. After a second-half equalizer from Atlético, he then scored a penalty in the shoot-out which resulted in Real Madrid winning 5–3; thus, he lifted his first UEFA Champions League trophy as a captain.[47] According to author Michael Cox, he also notably «tipped the balance of the game toward Real Madrid» by tripping Yannick Carrasco up and stopping a three-on-one counter in stoppage time, with 30 seconds remaining and the score 1–1.[48] He was named man of the match by UEFA after the game.[47] By winning the final, Real Madrid earned the right to play against the winners of the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League, Sevilla, in the 2016 UEFA Super Cup.[49] Ramos ended the 2015–16 season with three goals in 33 games which was his lowest goal tally and the fewest matches he played in any season at Real Madrid till then, due to ongoing injuries.

2016–17 season[edit]

Ramos started in the 2016 UEFA Super Cup in Trondheim, scoring Real Madrid’s equalizing second goal of the match in the 93rd minute, and hence bringing the game into extra-time. Real Madrid were the eventual 3–2 winners, with Ramos being named man of the match.[50] On 3 December 2016, he scored his fourth Clásico goal, an equalizer against Barcelona in a 1–1 draw at the Camp Nou in the 90th minute, extending Madrid’s unbeaten run to 33 games.[51] One week later, he scored another late goal, this time in the 92nd minute, to help Madrid claim a 3–2 victory against Deportivo La Coruña.[52]

On 15 January 2017, Ramos scored an own goal late in the game against Sevilla which levelled the scores at 1–1. Eventually Real Madrid lost the match 2–1 in stoppage time, thus ending their unbeaten streak at 40 matches.[53] A week later, he scored both goals in a 2–1 win over Málaga, registering his 50th goal in La Liga.[54] On 11 February, in a 3–1 victory against Osasuna, Ramos played his 500th match with the club.[55] In the UEFA Champions League round of 16 second leg, Ramos scored an important equalizing header against Napoli in a 3–1 away win as Real Madrid qualified to the quarter-final after winning 6–2 on aggregate. On 12 March, Ramos scored another late header winner for Real Madrid, this time against Real Betis at the Santiago Bernabéu in a 2–1 win, taking his goal tally to 10 for the season – scoring double digit goals in a season for the first time in his career. Ramos’ winner put Real Madrid back at the top of the La Liga table.[56] On 23 April, Ramos was sent off for the 22nd time in his Real Madrid career and fifth time in an El Clásico, after a straight red card for a two-footed challenge on Lionel Messi during a Barcelona counter-attack in their 3–2 home defeat.[57] Real Madrid won their 33rd La Liga title, giving Ramos his fourth league title overall and first as captain.[58][59] They went on to win their first league and European Cup double since 1957–58 season, as the team defeated Juventus in the 2017 UEFA Champions League Final. This also made Ramos the first player to captain a team to back-to-back European Cups in the UEFA Champions League era.[60] His ten goals in 2016–17 made it his then-highest scoring season.[61]

2017–18 season[edit]

On 20 August 2017, in Real Madrid’s first game of the 2017–18 La Liga, he received his 23rd career red card. It was his 18th in La Liga, a joint highest record. He went on to break that record, seeing his 19th La Liga red in a 0–0 draw with Athletic Bilbao.[62] Ramos scored his first goal of the season on 13 September in the Champions League, scoring a bicycle kick against APOEL on match-day 1.[63] In La Liga, Ramos scored four goals, including two penalties – against Leganes and Sevilla. During the 2017–18 UEFA Champions League, he made eleven appearances, while scoring one goal, when Madrid won their third consecutive and 13th overall Champions League title.[64] Ramos’ performance in the final, however, was met with criticism;[65] a challenge on Mohamed Salah resulted in the Egyptian dislocating his shoulder and missing the rest of the game,[66] and he hit Liverpool keeper Loris Karius in the head with his elbow, the goalkeeper later being diagnosed with concussion.[67][68] Ramos later denied that he intentionally hit Karius, saying that Virgil van Dijk pushed him into Karius.[69] Ramos became the first player to captain a team to three consecutive Champions League triumphs, having now lifted the Champions League in every season as captain.[70]

2018–19 season[edit]

Ramos began the 2018–19 season scoring a penalty in an eventual 4–2 loss to Atlético Madrid in the 2018 UEFA Super Cup. Taking the penalty ensured Ramos would be the team’s new penalty taker with the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo.[71] On 26 August 2018, Ramos scored another penalty in Real Madrid’s 4–1 away win against Girona, making him the only player along with Lionel Messi to score in each of the last 15 La Liga seasons.[72] One week later, Ramos scored his third penalty of the season, against Leganes in a 4–1 win at the Santiago Bernabéu – his first goal at home since March 2017.[73]

On 20 October 2018, Ramos played his 400th La Liga match for Real Madrid in a 2–1 loss at home to Levante, becoming only the tenth Real Madrid player to reach this milestone.[74] After a run of poor results and the sacking of Julen Lopetegui, Ramos scored his first goal for Real Madrid in two months through a Panenka, against Real Valladolid in Santiago Solari’s first 2018–19 La Liga game in charge of Los Blancos.[75] Two weeks later, on 11 November, Ramos scored another Panenka against Celta Vigo – making them the 25th different team he scored against in La Liga.[76] This was Ramos’ third Panenka from his last four penalties, with the inventor of the penalty, Antonín Panenka, saying Ramos was the best ‘imitator’ of his penalty technique.[77] With five goals in the first three months of the season, Ramos had his best goal-scoring start to a season at Real Madrid.[78] In the 2018 FIFA Club World Cup, Ramos played in both Real Madrid’s semi-final against Kashima Antlers and the final against Al Ain. Ramos scored a header in the final as Real Madrid won 3–1 to claim their third consecutive FIFA Club World Cup.[79] Ramos became the first player to lift three consecutive FIFA Club World Cups while also becoming the first defender to score in two Club World Cup Finals.[80]

On 9 January 2019, Ramos scored a penalty in the Copa del Rey game against Leganés, which was his 100th career goal, excluding 2 goals for Sevilla’s reserve team.[81] To celebrate the goal, Ramos chose to show the number 100 with his fingers.[82] On 24 January, Ramos scored a brace against Girona in the Copa del Rey quarter-final first leg in a 4–2 home win.[83] It was Ramos’ fourth brace for Real Madrid and his first in the Copa del Rey.[84] Three days later, Ramos scored his 10th goal of the campaign with a header against Espanyol in a 4–2 away win, which was also his 60th La Liga goal.[85] With ten goals to his name, Ramos equalled his highest-scoring season at Real Madrid which he set in 2016–17.[86]

On 6 February 2019, Sergio Ramos was playing in the Clásico for the 40th time. Three days later, in the Madrid Derby against Atlético Madrid, Ramos scored his eighth penalty of the season and his 11th goal in all competitions – making it his best goal-scoring season at Real Madrid.[87] Four days later, in the 2–1 Champions League Round of 16 first leg away win over Ajax, Ramos became just the seventh player to play 600 matches for Real Madrid.[88] In the match against Ajax, Ramos was booked for what seemed to be a needless challenge in the 90th minute. The booking meant that Ramos would miss the second leg against Ajax at the Santiago Bernabéu due a suspension of accumulating yellow cards. This sparked controversy after Ramos hinted to journalists in a post match interview that the yellow card was deliberate, which violates UEFA’s rules.[89] Two and a half weeks later, UEFA opened a disciplinary investigation regarding this matter and decided to give Ramos a two-game ban, meaning he will also miss both the Champions League Round of 16-second leg against Ajax and the quarter-final first leg were Real Madrid to qualify.[90] Due to Real Madrid’s elimination by Ajax, the suspension carried onto the next season and Ramos missed the first Champions League game of the 2019–20 season against Paris Saint-Germain.[91]

On 17 February, Ramos played his 601st match for Real Madrid, against Girona in La Liga, equalling the record of Real Madrid legends Fernando Hierro and Paco Gento.[92] Ten days later, Ramos played in his 41st El Clásico, in the Copa del Rey semi-final second leg at home. This was Ramos’ 602nd match for Real Madrid, taking up to him fifth in Real Madrid’s all-time appearances list.[93] On 2 March, Ramos played in the La Liga El Clásico at the Bernabéu, making him equal the all-time record of Paco Gento, Manolo Sanchís and Xavi by playing in 42 Clasicos.[94] On 5 March, Real Madrid were eliminated from the Champions League by Ajax after being thrashed 4–1 at the Santiago Bernabéu (aggregate 5–3 for Ajax).[95] Ramos did not feature due to being suspended after forcing a yellow card in the first leg, thus facing criticism for doing so.[96] Moreover, Ramos faced even more criticism as he was caught with a camera crew in the stands, filming for his new Amazon Prime documentary.[97] Ramos took to his Twitter and Instagram accounts to discuss the controversy surrounding his actions in which he admitted forcing the yellow card against Ajax in the first leg ‘was an error and I take the blame 200%’. Regarding filming the documentary, Ramos claimed there were ‘certain commitments’ made prior and he did not imagine the game would pan out as it did.[98] Ramos picked up a calf injury at the start of April which saw him miss the rest of the campaign and the final eight La Liga matches.[99]

2019–20 season[edit]

Ramos’ first goal of the season was a header in his first Champions League match of the campaign, against Club Brugge on 1 October at home. The goal came at a vital time as Real Madrid were 2–0 down by half-time but were able to make a comeback after another header by Casemiro. This was also Ramos’ first Champions League goal in two seasons.[100] On 30 October, Ramos scored from the penalty-spot in a 5–0 home victory over Leganés, continuing his run of scoring in 16 straight La Liga seasons, again equalling Messi.[101] One week later, on 6 November, Ramos scored his first penalty in the Champions League, which came against Galatasaray in a 6–0 home win. It was another ‘Panenka’ style penalty and also meant that Ramos scored in two Champions League group matches in the same season for the first time.[102] On 18 December, Ramos played in his 43rd El Clasico, claiming the all-time appearance record for this historic fixture.[103]

On 12 January 2020, Ramos scored the winning penalty in a shoot-out against Atletico Madrid in the Supercopa de España final in Jeddah as Real Madrid won 4–1 on penalties after a 0–0 draw after extra time. This was the first time in Ramos’ career that he scored a winning penalty in a shoot-out.[104] The 2020 Supercopa title was Ramos’ 21st trophy with Real Madrid.[105] A month later, Ramos scored another header in La Liga, this time away to Osasuna as Real Madrid won 4–1 to maintain top position in the table.[106] Ramos’ goal at El Sadar meant that he had scored in 20 different La Liga stadiums.[107] This was Ramos’ first La Liga goal of 2020, meaning he was the only player to score in La Liga in each of the last 17 calendar years – dating back to 2004.[108]

On 26 February 2020, Ramos equalled the record of red cards received in the UEFA Champions League. With four red cards, he shares the unwanted record with Zlatan Ibrahimović and Edgar Davids.[109] This dismissal came in a 2–1 home defeat to Manchester City in the Round of 16 first leg, for a tactical foul on City striker Gabriel Jesus.[109] Four days later, Ramos featured in Real Madrid’s 2–0 win over Barcelona at home in La Liga to leapfrog them into first place.[110] This was Ramos’ 21st consecutive Clasico in all competitions and his 30th in La Liga with Real Madrid.[111]

When La Liga restarted after a three-month hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Ramos scored in Real Madrid’s first game back against Eibar on 14 June at the Alfredo di Stéfano Stadium in a 3–1 win.[112] He also scored the first goal at this stadium in its inaugural match in May 2006.[113] Ramos’ goal began with him winning the ball back from Eibar’s attack a few meters outside Madrid’s own penalty area and ran 70 meters across the pitch to find the pass from Eden Hazard to score his first La Liga goal from open play in over five years.[114] On 21 June, Ramos scored a penalty for Real Madrid in their 2–1 win against Real Sociedad at the Anoeta, which was the 20th consecutive penalty he converted for club and country (including shoot-outs).[115] Three days later, Ramos scored a free-kick against in a 2–0 win over Mallorca at the Alfredo di Stefano to become La Liga’s all-time highest scoring defender with 68 goals, surpassing Ronald Koeman’s 67 with Barcelona.[116] Ramos’ free-kick was also his eighth La Liga goal of the season, making it his most prolific league campaign to date and his tenth in all competitions – hitting double figures for a third season.[117] On 28 June, Ramos featured in the 1–0 away league win against Espanyol, heading the ball down right outside the Espanyol penalty area to Karim Benzema who eventually assisted Casemiro to score the winner right before half-time.[118] This was Ramos’ 645th match for Madrid, moving him up to fourth in the club’s all-time most appearances list joint with Santillana.[119] On 2 July, Ramos scored his fifteenth consecutive penalty for Real Madrid in the 79th minute which proved to be the winner in a narrow 1–0 home win against Getafe – opening up a four-point advantage at the top of La Liga.[120][121] This was Ramos’ ninth league goal of the season – equaling the record set by Argentine international defender Ezequiel Garay in 2006-07 while playing for Racing Santander for a defender with the most goals in a single La Liga season.[122] The penalty against Getafe meant that Ramos had equalled his best goal scoring season (11 goals) which was set last season. Ramos had now scored in four out of six of Madrid’s matches since the restart, more than any other player.[123] Moreover, the goal was his 100th career club goal, and his 70th in La Liga.[124] The win over Getafe was Ramos’ 450th La Liga appearance as a Real Madrid player, becoming just the fifth player to reach this milestone.[125] Three days later, he scored another penalty – his 22nd in a row, and his tenth goal of the season in La Liga – in a 1–0 away win over Athletic Bilbao.[126][127] He also became the first centre-back to score 10 goals in a La Liga season since Fernando Hierro during the 1993–94 season.[128] On 19 July, Ramos scored his eleventh league goal in Real Madrid’s last La Liga game of the season against Leganes in an eventual 2–2 draw, making it his most prolific season in White with 13 goals across all competitions.[129] At the end of the season, Ramos won his fifth league title with Los Blancos and Real Madrid’s 34th overall.[130]

2020–21: Final season at Real Madrid[edit]

On 27 September 2020, Ramos opened his goal count for the season after netting the winning goal against Real Betis from the penalty spot at Benito Villamarín in a 3–2 league win.[131] One month later on 24 October in El Clasico, Ramos earned and converted a penalty at the Camp Nou in a 3–1 league win – this was his 25th consecutive penalty goal for both club and country (including shoot-outs).[132][133] Ramos’ fifth El Clasico goal equaled the record of Ronald Koeman (who was in the other dugout as manager) as the defenders with the most goals in this historic fixture. This was also Ramos’ 31st consecutive La Liga Clasico, meaning he has not missed one since joining Los Blancos in 2005 – equalling Raúl and Paco Gento as the players who played in the most league Clasicos.[134] Three days later, Ramos played his first Champions League match of the season against Borussia Mönchengladbach, assisting Casemiro’s 93rd minute equaliser in a 2–2 draw.[135] This was Ramos’ 16th Champions League campaign with Real Madrid, equalling the record of club legend, and former captain and teammate Iker Casillas.[136] On 31 October, Ramos became just the 10th player to play 500 La Liga matches (461 for Real Madrid and 39 for Sevilla), as Madrid beat Huesca 4–1 at the Alfredo Di Stefano Stadium.[137] On 3 November, Ramos scored his 100th goal for Real Madrid in all competitions, in a 3–2 win over Inter Milan in the Champions League.[138]

On 14 January, Ramos reportedly took four pain killer injections to his left knee to play against Athletic Bilbao in the 2020–21 Supercopa de España semi-final which Real Madrid went on to lose 2–1.[139] This was the last match Ramos would play before opting for a mid-season surgery for the first time in his career for a torn meniscus in his left knee.[140] He was expected to be out for two months and to return in early April, but after a speedy recovery, Ramos started against Elche on 13 March – just over a month after he went under the knife.[141] Real Madrid’s 2–1 win over Elche was Ramos’ 334th La Liga win (315 with Real Madrid and 19 with Sevilla), equalling the record of Iker Casillas as the players with second–most wins in the Spanish top flight – only behind Messi.[142] Four days later, Ramos played in a Champions League round of 16-second leg for the first time in three years as Real Madrid went on to defeat Atalanta 3–1 at the Alfredo di Stefano (5–3 on aggregate) and qualified for the quarter-finals for the first time since their last Champions League winning campaign in 2018. Ramos scored his 19th consecutive penalty for Madrid in the 60th minute which killed the game, before coming off as a substitute.[143] This was Ramos’ 15th Champions League goal, equalling Gerard Piqué and former teammate Iván Helguera as the second highest scoring defenders in the history of the competition – with only former teammate Roberto Carlos ahead of them.[144] Due to an injury, Ramos missed his first El Clásico since joining Los Blancos, putting an end to a streak of playing in 31 consecutive league Clásicos.[145] He later missed the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals against Liverpool, as he tested positive for COVID-19, although he was also injured.[146] On 5 May, in the Champions League semi-final second leg against Chelsea, his side lost 2–0 and were eliminated from the competition; however, he then sustained an injury in his left hamstring which forced him to miss the rest of the season; this meant he had played his last game for Real Madrid.[147] Ramos played just 21 matches for Los Blancos in 2020–21, making it his most injury-riddled season, after having played at least 33 matches in each of his previous 15 campaigns at the club.[148]

On 16 June, Real Madrid announced that Ramos would leave the club after 16 years.[149] During his farewell event on the next day, Ramos, who had initially asked for a two-year offer, mentioned that he accepted a one-year contract renewal with a salary reduction; however, the offer had expired without his knowledge.[150]

Paris Saint-Germain[edit]

2021–22: Transfer to PSG[edit]

On 8 July 2021, it was announced that Ramos had signed a two-year contract with Paris Saint-Germain.[151] He chose to wear the number 4 jersey, with Thilo Kehrer switching to the number 24 shirt.[152] Ramos remarked: «I am quite superstitious about it and I love the number 4 because I have worn that number since the start of my career and it has followed me throughout my career and my life, bringing with me much luck and many victories.»[152] During the medical examination required to complete the signing, the medical staff at PSG were reported to be impressed by his seriousness and physique, whilst the medical results were noted to be excellent and incredible.[153][154] The staff compared Ramos’ physique to that of a 25-year-old (he was 35 at the time).[155]

Due to a series of injury problems, Ramos made his first appearance in a matchday squad for PSG ahead of a Champions League group stage game against Manchester City on 24 November 2021.[156] He made his debut four days later in a 3–1 league victory over Saint-Étienne.[157] On 23 January 2022, Sergio scored his debut goal for the club, helping PSG to beat Reims 4–0 in a home league match.[158] Ramos won the 2021–22 Ligue 1 in his first season at the club.

2022–23: Second season at PSG[edit]

PSG started the 2022–23 season by winning the 2022 Trophée des Champions in Tel Aviv, in which Ramos scored a goal in a 4–0 win over Nantes.[159]

International career[edit]

Early international career and 2006 FIFA World Cup[edit]

In 2004, Ramos became an instant hit for Spain’s under-19, for whom he played six international matches. During the 2004 U19 Euro, Ramos was a key figure for Spain as he started in four out of five of their matches on the way to winning their second U19 European Championship, including scoring a decisive penalty in the Semi-final penalty-shoot out against Ukraine.[160][161] On 26 March 2005, in a 3–0 friendly win over China in Salamanca, he first appeared for the senior side at only 18 years and 361 days of age, making him the youngest player to play for the national team in the last 55 years. He held this record until 1 March 2006, when it was broken by Cesc Fàbregas in a friendly match against Côte d’Ivoire.[162]

On 12 October 2005, Ramos scored his first two international goals in a 6–0 away thrashing of San Marino for the 2006 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.[163] He was selected for the final stages in Germany and, after the international retirement of Real Madrid teammate Míchel Salgado, became the undisputed first-choice right-back. Despite wearing the number 4 jersey for Real Madrid, Ramos admitted he wears the number 15 for Spain in memory of his close friend and former Sevilla teammate Puerta, who died in August 2007 and made his Spain debut wearing No. 15.[164][165]

Euro 2008[edit]

Throughout Spain’s UEFA Euro 2008 qualifying campaign, Ramos was a regular member of the starting eleven as the national side finished first in its group, above Sweden. He scored two goals, including one in a 3–1 away win over Denmark, in 11 appearances. In the tournament’s final stages, Ramos played in all matches and minutes, except the 2–1 group stage win against Greece. In the final, his pass nearly set up Marcos Senna’s first international goal, but the latter missed his opportunity by inches. During the celebrations after the 1–0 defeat of Germany, he wore a T-shirt in honour of his late friend Puerta.[166]

2009 FIFA Confederations Cup and 2010 FIFA World Cup[edit]

Ramos was selected in the squad for the 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup in South Africa, as Spain finished in third.[167] On 3 June 2010, he captained Spain for the first time, in a 1–0 friendly win over South Korea in Innsbruck, Austria.[168]

At the 2010 World Cup, held in the same country, Ramos played every minute of the tournament as a right back, helping Spain keep five clean sheets and reach the final, which they won 1–0 against the Netherlands; he topped the tournament’s Castrol Performance Index with a score of 9.79.[169] Despite playing at right-back, he also completed more solo runs than any other player in the tournament, 31.[170]

Euro 2012[edit]

Ramos returned to the heart of the defence for Euro 2012. When asked about his role change, he replied: «I have adapted and feel comfortable in the middle, but I am a World and European champion at right-back».[171] He played all the games in Poland and Ukraine alongside Barcelona’s Gerard Piqué and, in the semi-finals against Portugal, he converted his penalty shootout attempt in an eventual 4–2 win (0–0 after 120 minutes), scoring for the eventual champions in Panenka-style.[172] On 1 July, Ramos won his third trophy with the Spanish senior National Team as they thrashed Italy 4–0 in the Final. Ramos’ performances during the Euro earned him a place in the Team of The Tournament.[173] Ramos wore another T-shirt during Spain’s Euro 2012 celebrations to pay homage to his late friend Puerta.[174]

2013 FIFA Confederations Cup and 2014 FIFA World Cup[edit]

On 22 March 2013, Ramos celebrated his 100th cap by opening the scoring in a 1–1 draw with Finland in Gijón for the 2014 World Cup qualifiers. He became the youngest European player ever to reach that figure in the process, surpassing Germany’s Lukas Podolski.[6] In June, Ramos contested in the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup in Brazil, starting every match as Spain lost to the hosts in the final. He captained the side for their second group game, a 10–0 win over Tahiti at the Maracanã, which is the biggest win of his career.[175] On 30 June, he missed a penalty kick in the 3–0 Confederations Cup Final loss to Brazil.[176]

Ramos was selected for his third World Cup in 2014.[177] He played the full 90 minutes of each of the team’s matches in Brazil, each with a different partner in central defence, as the reigning champions were eliminated from the group stage.[178][179][180]

Euro 2016 and 2018 FIFA World Cup[edit]

In February 2016, Ramos won the Luis Aragonés Award by Marca which distinguished him as the best player of the national team in the past year.[181] With David de Gea selected ahead of Iker Casillas in Spain’s starting line-up, Ramos captained the team at UEFA Euro 2016. On 21 June 2016, he had a penalty kick saved by Danijel Subašić in a 2–1 loss to Croatia.[182] Spain finished their Euro group as runners-up and crashed out in the Round of 16 against Italy.[183]

On 23 March 2018, days before turning 32, Ramos earned his 150th cap for Spain in a 1–1 friendly draw with Germany in Düsseldorf. Only Iker Casillas had previously reached the mark for the team.[184]

Ramos was included in the Spain squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup and would go into his fourth tournament, and first World Cup as Captain after Iker Casillas missed out.[185] He played in all three of Spain’s Group stage matches as they topped the ‘Group of Death’ ahead of European Champions Portugal.[186] In the Round of 16 against Russia, Ramos believed he scored the opening goal but it was later credited as an Sergei Ignashevich own goal.[187] The match ended 1–1 after extra time and was decided on penalties (4–3) as the hosts eliminated La Roja. Ramos scored Spain’s fourth penalty but it wasn’t enough as teammates Koke and Aspas both had their penalties saved.[188][189]

2018–19 UEFA Nations League and Euro 2020 qualification[edit]

With new coach Luis Enrique, Ramos retained captaincy of the national team. He played in all four of Spain’s 2018–19 UEFA Nations League group matches, becoming the nation’s top scorer in the group with three goals – scoring once against England and twice against Croatia.[190][191] Spain finished second in their UEFA Nations League Group, which saw them miss out on the 2019 UEFA Nations League Finals.[192] In March 2019, Ramos scored the winner in Spain’s first UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying match against Norway through another Panenka penalty in a 2–1 win.[193] This was his tenth penalty of the season, scoring them all. It was also his fifth consecutive match scoring for Spain, which is a personal record.[194] Spain manager Enrique hailed Ramos as a ‘unique player in history’ after the match.[195]

In the second Euro 2020 qualification match, away to Malta, Ramos did not score for the first time in six matches for Spain – failing to extend his scoring streak. However, the match ended 2–0 to Spain which was his 121st win with La Roja, equaling the all-time record of Iker Casillas.[196] On 7 June 2019, Ramos broke the record of most international victories with 122, following a 4–1 victory against the Faroe Islands, scoring Spain’s opening goal in the process.[197] Three days later, ahead of the match against Sweden, Ramos received a plaque from the Spanish Football Federation to commemorate his record.[198] The match ended with a 3–0 win for Spain, where he scored the first goal and extended his tally to 123 international victories.[199] On 5 September 2019, Ramos scored from a penalty kick his 21st international goal to open the score in Spain’s 2–1 away win over Romania in a Euro 2020 qualifier, which made him the joint 10th top scorer in the history of the national team, alongside Míchel.[200] On 8 September, Ramos won his 167th cap for Spain in a 4–0 home win over the Faroe Islands in a Euro 2020 qualifier; with this appearance, he equaled Iker Casillas as Spain’s most capped player of all time.[201] On 12 October 2019, he became the nation’s sole most capped player.[202]

2020–21 UEFA Nations League[edit]

On 6 September 2020, Ramos scored a brace in a 4–0 win over Ukraine for the 2020–21 UEFA Nations League, reaching 23 international goals and equaling Alfredo Di Stéfano as Spain’s eighth-highest all-time goalscorer.[203] On 14 November 2020, in a 1–1 draw against Switzerland, he made his 177th appearance for Spain and overtook Gianluigi Buffon’s record for the most international caps received by a European player.[204]

Euro 2020[edit]

Ramos was excluded from the squad for UEFA Euro 2020, following an injury-plagued season. His omission marked the first major tournament since Euro 2004 where he was not called for the national team, ending a run of featuring in ten consecutive tournaments.[205]

Player profile[edit]

Style of play[edit]

Regarded as one of the best defenders in the world, and of all time, Ramos is a physically strong player who excels in the air due to his elevation, eye for goal, and heading accuracy, making him a goal threat on set-pieces;[206][207][208][209][210][211][212][213] he is also a competent and aggressive tackler. In addition to his defensive skills and goal scoring ability,[206][207][208] he is gifted with pace,[209] and is comfortable on the ball,[214] possessing good technical ability, as well as good distribution, passing, and crossing ability,[206][207][208][215] which allows him to carry the ball forward,[216] switch the play with long balls, or play out from the back on the ground.[217][218] According to Spanish sports newspaper Marca, FIFA’s official records confirmed that in 2015, Ramos was clocked at a sprinting speed of 30.6 kilometers per hour, making him one of the fastest footballers in the world at the time.[219] He is also an accurate penalty taker, and is known for often using the Panenka technique when taking them.[220][221] He has also been known to take free kicks, courtesy of his ability to bend the ball and his powerful striking ability from distance.[222][223][224][225][226]

Ramos has earned plaudits for his leadership, athleticism, technical prowess, and his ability to excel both offensively and defensively, as well as his versatility, which allows him to be deployed as a centre-back and as a full-back; in his youth, he often played as a right-back, while he later established himself as a centre-back as his career progressed. Due to his wide range of skills, his former Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has compared him to legendary defender Paolo Maldini; he went on to describe him as «the best defender in the world at the moment» in 2014,[212][215][227] a view which was echoed by Giorgio Chiellini in 2020.[228] Ramos has also occasionally been deployed as a central or defensive midfielder, in particular under Ancelotti during the 2014–15 season.[229] Ramos has been praised for his decisive performances in important games, most notably for Real Madrid, due to his tendency to score crucial goals for his team, and is considered by several pundits to be one of the most reliable performers in high-pressure situations.[B] However, despite his ability as a defender, his tactical sense, consistency, and concentration from match to match have been questioned at times by pundits and other footballing figures, who have accused him of being too impulsive in his challenges or prone to occasional defensive errors throughout the course of a season.[212][228][230][231][232][233][234]

Ramos is also often criticised in the media for using excessive, reckless force while playing, as well as for his lack of discipline and tendency to pick-up an excessive number of unnecessary cards;[235][236][237][238][239][240][241] he has also been accused of diving.[242]

Disciplinary record[edit]

Ramos holds multiple disciplinary records, for Real Madrid, in the Champions League, La Liga, El Clásico, and in the Spain national team.[243]

Ramos holds the record for most carded player in La Liga, with 191 cards. His 171 yellow cards surpass Alberto Lopo, the former record holder for La Liga yellow cards.[244] The remaining 20 are red cards, making Ramos the most sent-off player in La Liga as well. His La Liga card record is higher than any other player’s in the major European leagues, making him the most booked player in all major European top divisions.[245]

In the Champions League, Ramos has amassed 40 yellow cards and 4 red cards (3 of which were straight red cards), making him both the most-carded player and joint-most red-carded player in Champions League history.[246][247]

Lastly, Ramos also holds the record for being the most carded player in the history of the Spanish national team, with 24 yellow cards.[245]

Personal life[edit]

Ramos entered in a relationship with journalist/presenter Pilar Rubio in September 2012. This was confirmed by both at the FIFA Ballon d’Or.[248] They have four sons together.[249][250][251] On 16 July 2018, Ramos and Rubio got engaged.[252] The couple married in his hometown of Seville on 15 June 2019.[253]

Ramos has been described as a ‘family person’ and has a close relationship with his siblings and parents.[254] Rene, Ramos’s brother, is currently his football agent.[255] Ramos is a fan of bullfighting and he is a personal friend of matador Alejandro Talavante.[256] He celebrated victories for both club and country by playing with a matador’s cape.[257] Ramos is also a keen horse aficionado, owning a stud farm in his native Andalusia specifically dedicated to the breeding of the Andalusian horse.[258] Ramos’ horse, ‘Yucatán SR4’ became a World Champion in 2018.[259]

In June 2014, Ramos was appointed as an ambassador for UNICEF Spain.[260]

Body art[edit]

Ramos has more than 42 tattoos, including Jesus and Mary, Star of David in honour of his grandmother, Nena, who gave a pendant of the same design to his mother; in addition, he also has tattoos of a lion, wolf, dreamcatcher, map of Spain, Native American chief, hamsa, FIFA World Cup and Champions League trophies, his family members, among others.[261]

Amazon Prime documentary[edit]

In January 2019, Amazon Prime and Ramos himself announced they will release an eight-episode documentary series on Ramos’ life on and off the pitch known as El Corazón de Sergio Ramos (The Heart of Sergio Ramos). This would be the first ever time the public would see the personal side of Ramos and his family.[262] On 5 March, during Real Madrid’s Champions League Round of 16 second leg match, Ramos was suspended and watched the match from his VIP area in the stands. His reactions were filmed by the Amazon Prime crew.[263] This sparked controversy as Real Madrid lost the match and were eliminated from the Champions League, though Ramos suggested on his social media networks that there were «certain commitments made and it never remotely went through my head that the game could have turned out as it did».[98]

Due to the success of his first docu-series with Amazon, Ramos announced in June 2020 via his social media accounts that Amazon Prime will be releasing another documentary known as La Leyenda Sergio Ramos (The Legend of Sergio Ramos), which highlights his career’s most defining moments. It was released in Spain in April 2021 and will be release world-wide in June and consists of six episodes.[264][265]

Клубная карьера

«Севилья»

В возрасте 15 лет Серхио прибыл на просмотр в «Севилью», где хорошо проявил себя. Вскоре начал выступать за юношеские команды этого клуба. В одном из своих интервью Рамос отмечал, что первым футбольным полем, на котором он играл, был пустырь с воротами из камней.

В сезоне 2002/03 провёл один матч за резервную команду «Севильи» во втором дивизионе чемпионата Испании. В сезоне 2003/04 Рамос стал игроком основного состава дубля, приняв участие в 25 матчах и забив один мяч.

В начале 2004 года главный тренер «Севильи» Хоакин Капаррос перевёл Рамоса в основной состав. 1 февраля 2004 года Рамос дебютировал в Примере в матче против «Депортиво Ла-Корунья» (0:1).

В сезоне 2004/05 Серхио провёл в Примере 31 матч и забил 2 мяча, также он играл в Кубке УЕФА, в частности встречался с петербургским «Зенитом». В конце сезона Серхио был признан игроком-открытием чемпионата.

«Реал Мадрид»

Летом 2005 года мадридский «Реал» приобрел Рамоса за 27 миллионов евро. «Барселона» и «Манчестер Юнайтед» также желали видеть игрока в своём составе. Сам об этом событии Серхио сказал следующее:

Меня вызвали в сборную. У меня с собой в сумке были туалетные принадлежности и бутсы, поскольку обычно в сборной проводишь тренировку, играешь матч и возвращаешься домой. И так получилось, что в тот день я домой не поехал. Я подписал контракт в 23.30 в Лас Росас, зная, что трансферное окно закрывается в полночь. И когда я поставил свою подпись, я не мог в это поверить. Мне посыпались СМСки. В тот день я наверно получил больше всего СМСок в своей жизни. Это был шаг вперёд и огромная ответственность, и невероятные перемены. И если я и сейчас ещё юнец, то тогда я был совсем ребёнком. И у меня не было ни малейшего опыта… Просыпаешься игроком «Севильи», а спать ложишься футболистом «Реал Мадрид». И знаешь, что будешь делить раздевалку с такими людьми, как Рауль, Бекхэм, Зизу, Икер, Роберто Карлос, Рональдо, а все они были моими кумирами… Мир переворачивается с ног на голову.

Чуть меньше, чем через год после ЧМ-2006, Серхио выиграл первый крупный титул в карьере, став в составе «Реала» чемпионом Испании.
17 мая 2011 года Рамос продлил контракт с «Реалом» до 2017 года с заработной платой в 4,5 млн евро за год[3].

7 января 2012 года Рамос провёл свой 250-й матч в чемпионате Испании[4].

29 апреля 2014 года Рамос помог своей команде выйти в финал Лиги чемпионов УЕФА, оформив дубль в ворота мюнхенской «Баварии», игра завершилась 0:4 в пользу «Реала». 24 мая 2014 года в матче финала Лиги чемпионов с мадридским «Атлетико» Рамос спас «Реал» от поражения, сравняв счет на 93-й минуте ударом головой, тем самым дав шанс «Реалу» в десятый раз в своей истории выиграть Лигу чемпионов. Встреча завершилась со счетом 4:1 в пользу «Реала».

17 августа 2015 года Рамос подписал новый контракт с «Реалом» до 2020 года с зарплатой 10 млн евро в год. После ухода Икера Касильяса Рамос стал новым капитаном мадридского «Реала».

Карьера в сборной

Рамос на чемпионате Европы 2012 года

Летом 2004 года Серхио стал чемпионом Европы в составе юношеской сборной Испании для игроков не старше 19 лет.

26 марта 2005 года Рамос дебютировал в составе сборной Испании, выйдя на замену в поединке против сборной Китая (3:0) в возрасте 18 лет. Серхио стал первым футболистом с 1941 года, который играл за сборную Испании в столь юном возрасте: ранее этого добился вратарь Хуан Акунья. Через некоторое время Серхио попал в стартовый состав на отборочный матч чемпионата мира-2006 с Сербией и Черногорией. С тех пор он стал основным защитником команды Луиса Арагонеса. 13 октября 2005 года забил свой первый мяч за сборную, оформив дубль в ворота сборной Сан-Марино (6:0). Приход Рамоса в сборную совпал с завершением международной карьеры Мичела Сальгадо, и Рамос стал основным правым защитником сборной Испании.

В отборочном турнире Евро-2008 Рамос принял участие в 11 из 12 матчей и забил два гола. Был основным игроком сборной на чемпионатах Европы 2008, 2012 и 2016 годов, а также на чемпионатах мира 2010, 2014 и 2018 годов.

Личная жизнь

Серхио Рамос встречался с репортером Telecinco Ларой Альварес, расстались 7 июля, о разрыве Серхио сообщил по телефону[5].

С сентября 2012 года встречается с журналисткой Пилар Рубио. Пилар старше Серхио на 8 лет. 6 мая 2014 родился сын Серхио Рамос Рубио-младший. 15 ноября 2015 года родился сын Марко. А 25 марта 2018 года у пары родился третий сын Алехандро.
17 июля 2018 года Серхио сделал предложение Пилар, она согласилась. Об этом пара сообщила в инстаграме.

Стиль игры

Рамос способен хорошо действовать на разных позициях, и тренеры «Реала» широко используют это его качество. В частности, в некоторых матчах он играл на позиции опорного полузащитника. Рамос обладает прекрасной техникой, отличным отбором мяча и хорошим видением поля, быстро ориентируется в игровых ситуациях.

Childhood & Early Life

Sergio Ramos was born on March 30, 1986, in Camas, Seville, to José Maria Ramos and Paqui Ramos. Seville was popular for its bullfighting tradition. Every other child from the city dreamt about becoming a bullfighter. Sergio was no different. Although he loved playing football, he wanted to become a bullfighter.

He grew up with two siblings, a brother and a sister, and was soon talked out of a career in bullfighting by his parents, as it was a dangerous sport. His elder brother, Rene, who also happens to be his current manager, introduced Sergio to football, and Sergio was soon addicted to it.

His parents were happy with Sergio’s choice and supported him by appointing a private trainer. As a child, Sergio had joined a football club named ‘FC Camas,’ which turned out to be a great learning experience for him. The club was where his real talents were revealed. He won many ‘Man of the Match’ awards and garnered some media attention too.

At the age of 14, he was acquired by the local club ‘Sevilla FC,’ which catered to young talented players. Sergio joined the club’s youth program. Finally, in 2004, he was included in the main squad, and a bright and successful career awaited him.

Career

In the 2004–2005 season, he appeared in 41 games for his team ‘Sevilla FC’ and helped his team reach the sixth spot. This also meant he had qualified for the ‘UEFA Cup,’ in which he scored his first goal against ‘CD Nacional.’ His performance earned him immense accolades and made his entry into the major leagues certain.

In 2004, Sergio made a strong impact in the national ‘Under-21’ team, where he played six international matches. In March 2005, he made his international main squad debut in a friendly match against China, leading his team to victory. He also became the youngest player in 55 years to have earned a place in Spain’s national team.

He has played in three ‘World Cups’ for Spain, in the years 2006, 2010, and 2014. He has also participated in three ‘Euro Cups,’ in 2008, 2012, and 2016. In his 149 matches for Spain, Sergio has scored 13 goals.

Soon, ‘Real Madrid’ eyed Sergio and bought him for a whopping 27 million Euros. The deal was finalized in March 2005. He scored his first goal in December that year, in a ‘UEFA Championship League’ group stage match. His team lost by a goal, but his performance was praised.

His first four seasons with ‘Real Madrid’ were not as great as he had expected them to be. He was mostly used as a defensive midfielder and a center back, the latter being his forté. He was soon promoted to the right back position, which increased his chances of scoring goals. While most defenders struggle very hard to score goals from their positions, Sergio had no such problem. People were highly impressed by this. He scored 20 goals in the first four seasons.

However, his aggressiveness on the field remained a cause of concern for the team management throughout the games. In the first season itself, he was shown four red cards, and in the subsequent three seasons, he was shown five more red cards. In August 2008, ‘Real Madrid’ faced a tragic time when they had only nine players on the field for a long time.

Sergio also faced a hard time during the early stages of the 2008–2009 season, but the team picked up its momentum soon. Apart from achieving the 21st spot in the ‘European Player of the Year’ nomination for 2008, he also made a place in the ‘UEFA Team of the Year’ and in the ‘FIFA FIFPro World XI’ team.

‘Real Madrid’ faced a tiny bit of crisis in the 2009–2010 season, which helped Sergio become one of the four captains of the team. During the season, Sergio scored four goals in the 33 matches that he played in. He also touched the milestone of playing the 200th game of his career, in February 2010.

In November 2010, he was shown one of the most infamous red cards of his career after he kicked Lionel Messi from behind, in a game against ‘FC Barcelona.’ His aggressiveness created a lot of trouble for ‘Real Madrid,’ but it also helped the team in winning matches against stronger teams.

In 2011, his contract with ‘Real Madrid’ was extended till 2017. He maintained his momentum for the next few years and played a crucial role in his team attaining many crucial victories. During the 2012–2013 season, he captained his team in consecutive matches. His team defeated ‘Barcelona’ under his leadership.

In April 2014, Sergio scored two consecutive goals through headers in the semi-final match of the ‘Champions League’ against ‘Bayern Munich.’ This also led his team into the finals of the ‘Champions League’ for the first time in 12 years.

In 2015, his contract with ‘Real Madrid’ was extended for another five years. In December 2015, he led his team to a record 10–2 victory in a ‘La Liga’ match. ‘Real Madrid’ had not won a ‘La Liga’ match by such a huge margin in 55 years. The 2016–2017 season was the most successful season of his career, with him scoring ten goals.

Personal Life

У этого человека испанская фамилия; здесь Рамос — фамилия отца, Гарсия — фамилия матери.

Се́рхио Ра́мос Гарси́я (исп. Sergio Ramos García; род. 30 марта 1986 года в Камасе, провинция Севилья) — испанский футболист, защитник клуба «Пари Сен-Жермен» и сборной Испании[4]. В течение 16 сезонов он играл на позиции центрального защитника в мадридском «Реале»[5], капитаном которого он был в течение шести сезонов[6][7]. Ранее в своей карьере он играл на позиции правого защитника[8].

Пройдя через молодёжную академию «Севильи» и проведя два сезона в старшей команде, Рамос перешёл в «Реал Мадрид» летом 2005 года[8]. С тех пор он стал основным игроком «Реала» и выиграл 22 главных награды, включая пять титулов Ла Лиги и четыре титула Лиги чемпионов УЕФА, став одним из лучших бомбардиров Ла лиги с позиции защитника. Он сыграл решающую роль в формировании всех четырёх побед в Лиге чемпионов, каждый раз попадая в команду сезона. Он также отметился голом на 93-й минуте финала Лиги чемпионов УЕФА 2014 года[9][10].

Рамос одиннадцать раз включался в список FIFPro World11, что является рекордом для защитника и третьим рекордом за все время. Он также девять раз избирался в команду года УЕФА, что также является рекордом для защитника и третьим показателем среди всех игроков. Кроме того, Рамос рекордные пять раз признавался лучшим защитником Ла Лиги, а в 2015/16 годах — лучшей командой сезона Ла Лиги. В 2021 году он перешёл в «Пари Сен-Жермен» свободным агентом.

Рамос представлял сборную Испании на четырёх чемпионатах мира и трёх чемпионатах Европы. Он выиграл чемпионат мира по футболу 2010 года и чемпионат Европы УЕФА в 2008 и 2012 годах, был включён в «Команду мечты» чемпионата мира по футболу в 2010 году и «Команду турнира» чемпионата Европы в 2012 году. Он впервые сыграл за сборную Испании в возрасте 18 лет, а в 2013 году стал самым молодым игроком страны, набравшим 100 матчей[11]. Рамос является лидером по количеству сыгранных матчей в истории сборной Испании (180). Ему также принадлежит рекорд по количеству побед за сборную Испании — 131 матч[12].

Клубная карьера

Серхио Рамос родился в небольшом городке Камас[13], который является муниципалитетом и входит в провинцию Севилья. С 6 лет он начал заниматься футболом в местной команде «Камас»[14].

«Севилья»

В возрасте 10 лет Серхио прибыл на просмотр в «Севилью», где хорошо проявил себя. Вскоре начал выступать за юношеские команды этого клуба, где играл вместе с Хесусом Навасом и Антонио Пуэрта. В одном из своих интервью Рамос отмечал, что первым футбольным полем, на котором он играл, был пустырь с воротами из камней.

В сезоне 2002/03 провёл один матч за резервную команду «Севильи» в третьем по уровню дивизионе чемпионата Испании. В сезоне 2003/04 Рамос стал игроком основного состава дубля, приняв участие в 30 матчах и забив два мяча. В начале 2004 года главный тренер «Севильи» Хоакин Капаррос перевёл Рамоса в основной состав. 1 февраля Рамос дебютировал в Примере в матче против «Депортиво» из Ла-Коруньи (0:1)[15]. В сезоне 2004/05 Серхио провёл в Примере 31 матч и забил два мяча, также он играл в Кубке УЕФА, в частности встречался с петербургским «Зенитом». В конце сезона Серхио был признан игроком-открытием чемпионата. В качестве его сильных сторон называли скорость, физику, неуступчивость в единоборствах и игру головой.

«Реал Мадрид»

2005—2009. Рекордный трансфер и первые дни

Летом 2005 года мадридский «Реал» приобрёл Рамоса за 27 миллионов евро[16]. «Барселона» и «Манчестер Юнайтед» также желали видеть игрока в своём составе. Сам об этом событии Серхио сказал следующее:

«Меня вызвали в сборную. У меня с собой в сумке были туалетные принадлежности и бутсы, поскольку обычно в сборной проводишь тренировку, играешь матч и возвращаешься домой. И так получилось, что в тот день я домой не поехал. Я подписал контракт в 23:30 в Лас Росас, зная, что трансферное окно закрывается в полночь. И когда я поставил свою подпись, я не мог в это поверить».

Он был единственным испанским игроком, приглашённым в команду во время первого пребывания Флорентино Переса на посту президента «Реала». В клубе Рамос получил футболку с номером 4, которую ранее носил Фернандо Йерро. 6 декабря 2005 года он забил свой первый гол за «сливочных» в матче группового этапа Лиги чемпионов против «Олимпиакоса» со счетом 2:1[17].

В течение первых сезонов Рамос играл на позиции центрального защитника, иногда его использовали в качестве опорного полузащитника. Однако с приходом Кристофа Метцельдера и Пепе в сезоне 2007/08 он снова был переведен на позицию правого защитника. В первые четыре сезона в «Реал Мадриде» Рамос проявил необычный для многих защитников голевой инстинкт, забив в общей сложности более 20 голов. Он также получил первые девять из 24 красных карточек за клуб, включая четыре в своём дебютном сезоне. Его первая красная карточка была получена после двух нарушений правил в гостевом матче с «Эспаньолом» (1:0) 18 сентября 2005 года[18].

В сезоне 2006/07 Рамос забил пять мячей, в том числе один в Эль-Класико с «Барселоной» (3:3), когда «Реал Мадрид» завоевал рекордный 30-й титул чемпиона[19].

4 мая 2008 года он ассистировал Гонсало Игуаину на 89-й минуте матча с «Осасуной», который завершился победой «Реала» на выезде со счетом 2:1 и стал для клуба 31-м чемпионским титулом. В последний день сезона он забил дважды в домашней победе 5:2 над уже вылетевшим «Леванте»: один раз ударом головой, а другой — собственным ударом; эти голы довели его счёт в лиге за сезон 2007/08 до пяти[20].

24 августа 2008 года Рамос забил гол в ответном матче Суперкубка Испании 2008 года против «Валенсии», сделав счет 2:1 в итоге 4:2 и 6:5 в сумме. Победа была одержана несмотря на то, что «Реал Мадрид» долгое время играл вдевятером после удаления Рафаэля ван дер Варта и Рууда ван Нистелроя. Хотя в начале сезона 2008/09 испанец пережил небольшой спад формы, он вернулся к своей лучшей форме и 11 января 2009 года забил акробатический гол в победном матче с «Мальоркой» (3:0)[21]. Он продолжил свою голевую серию на следующей неделе в домашнем матче с «Осасуной» (3:1)[22].

Рамос был включён в список лучшей команды 2008 года по версии ФИФА и УЕФА, а также получил награду FIFPro «Команда года 2007/08». Он также занял 21-е место в номинации «Лучший игрок года в Европе 2008 года»[23].

2009—2015. Прорыв и основа команды

Сезон 2009/10

В начале сезона 2009/10 Рамос был назначен одним из четырёх капитанов «Реала». Поскольку Пепе получил серьёзную травму колена во время этой кампании, Рамос часто использовался в качестве центрального защитника. Он забил четыре гола в 33 матчах лиги; а 21 февраля 2010 года он сыграл свой 200-й официальный матч за «белых» против «Вильярреала» (150 в высшем дивизионе). Несмотря на эти яркие моменты, «Реал Мадрид» завершил кампанию без серебряных наград.

Сезон 2010/11

В сезоне 2010/11 — после ухода из клуба Рауля и Гути — он стал вторым капитаном команды после Икера Касильяса. 29 ноября 2010 года во время поражения «Реала» от «Барселоны» со счетом 5:0 Рамос был удален после того, как ударил сзади Лионеля Месси, а затем толкнул Карлеса Пуйоля в последовавшей за этим драке[24]. После этого удаления он сравнялся с предыдущим рекордом Фернандо Йерро — десять красных карточек в клубе, несмотря на то, что сыграл на 264 матча меньше[25]. 19 февраля 2011 года в матче против «Леванте» он дебютировал в качестве капитана в официальном матче из-за дисквалификации Касильяса[26]. 20 апреля 2011 года Рамос вышел на поле в финале Кубка Испании, выиграв 1:0 у «Барселоны» в Валенсии. Во время последующего победного шествия, празднуя на вершине клубного автобуса, он случайно выронил кубок, который попал под колеса транспортного средства; в результате трофей был помят[27].

Сезон 2011/12

12 июля 2011 года защитник продлил свой контракт с «Реалом» до 2017 года[28]. 25 апреля следующего года в ответном матче полуфинала Лиги чемпионов против «Баварии» он не реализовал пенальти, так как «Реал» проиграл со счетом 3:1[29]; лигочемпионская кампания завершилась победой «Реала», набравшего рекордные 100 очков после четырёхлетнего перерыва, а он стал игроком с наибольшим количеством отбитых мячей в своей команде, третьим в общем зачёте[30].

Сезон 2012/13

9 января 2013 года Рамос был удалён за второе нарушение правил в середине второго тайма домашней победы над «Сельтой» со счетом 4:0 в Кубке Испании 2012/13. Впоследствии он был дисквалифицирован на четыре матча, после того как выяснилось, что он также оскорбил арбитра Мигеля Анхеля Айзу Гамеса[31]. В следующем месяце, через несколько минут после того, как он забил второй гол в домашнем матче против «Райо Вальекано», и менее чем через 20 минут после начала первого тайма, он получил две жёлтые карточки в течение одной минуты в итоге домашнего успеха 2:0, доведя своё количество красных карточек только в «Реал Мадриде» до 16; и 12 в чемпионате[32][33].
В конце февраля — начале марта 2013 года, в связи с отсутствием Икера Касильяса из-за травмы, Рамос стал капитаном «Реала», одержав две победы над «Барселоной» всего за четыре дня: во второй игре он забил гол в ворота «Барселоны» со счетом 2:1, отправив мяч в ворота после углового удара[34].

Сезон 2013/14

14 декабря 2013 года Рамос получил рекордную для клуба 18-ю красную карточку за «Реал Мадрид» в матче с «Осасуной» (2:2)[35], но позже удаление было отменено[36].

23 марта 2014 года была получена его 19-я красная карточка в домашнем поражении от «Барселоны» со счетом 4:3[18]. 26 апреля Рамос забил головой в ворота «Осасуны» в Ла Лиге на «Бернабеу» в контратаке, которую он начал сильным захватом. Это был его первый гол в чемпионате за шесть месяцев, с момента его гола в матче против «Леванте» в день 8-го тура[37]. 29 апреля 2014 года Рамос забил два мяча головой за четыре минуты в гостевой победе 4:0 над «Баварией» в полуфинале Лиги чемпионов[38], завершив матч с общим счетом 5:0 и обеспечив Мадриду выход в финал впервые за двенадцать лет. Брейк Рамоса в матче с «Баварией» (4 минуты) стал на тот момент самым быстрым брейком в истории полуфиналов Лиги чемпионов[39]. 4 мая в домашнем матче Ла Лиги с «Валенсией» (2:2) Рамос забил ещё один гол головой, забив в нескольких подряд матчах чемпионата[40]. Всего три дня спустя Рамос забил свой первый штрафной удар в матче с «Реал Вальядолидом» (1:1), забив в трех подряд матчах Ла Лиги и впервые забив в четырёх подряд матчах за «Реал Мадрид»[41]. 24 мая в финале Лиги чемпионов против «Атлетико Мадрид» он забил гол на 93-й минуте, сравняв счет 1:1, и «Реал Мадрид» победил со счетом 4:1 в дополнительное время, завоевав «Ла Децима», свой десятый трофей в этом соревновании; он также был выбран болельщиками как «Игрок матча»[42]. Сезон 2013/14 Рамос закончил с 7 голами, что стало его самым результативным сезоном за «Реал Мадрид» на тот момент.

Сезон 2014/15

Рамос начал сезон 2014/15 12 августа 2014 года, отыграв все 90 минут в матче с «Севильей» (2:0), в котором «Севилья» завоевала свой первый трофей в сезоне — Суперкубок УЕФА. Затем он сыграл в финале Суперкубка Испании против мадридского «Атлетико», где «бланкос» проиграли по сумме двух матчей со счетом 2:1[43]. Рамос забил свой первый гол в сезоне 31 августа на второй неделе Ла Лиги, забив головой в гостевом матче против «Реал Сосьедада» со счетом 4:2[44]. Рамос забил свой 50-й гол за «Реал Мадрид», который он забил с колена 8 ноября против «Райо Вальекано» на «Бернабеу» в Ла Лиге, когда «Реал Мадрид» выиграл со счетом 5:1[45].

Он забил в полуфинале и финале Клубного чемпионата мира по футболу 2014 года и был признан игроком матча в обоих матчах, так как «Реал Мадрид» выиграл турнир в Марокко. Рамос также был признан игроком турнира и получил «Золотой мяч»[46][47].

2015—2021. Капитанство и стабильный успех

Сезон 2015/16

В августе 2015 года Рамос подписал новый пятилетний контракт с «Реал Мадридом», который связывает его с клубом до 2020 года. Он также стал капитаном после перехода Касильяса в «Порту»[48]. 8 ноября Серхио забил свой первый гол в сезоне на выезде в ворота «Севильи», это был удар сверху, из-за которого он был вынужден уйти на замену, приземлившись на травмированное левое плечо[49].

20 декабря 2015 года Рамос под руководством капитана «Мадрида» одержал победу над «Райо Вальекано» со счетом 10:2, что стало самой крупной победой клуба в Ла Лиге за последние 55 лет[50]. 13 марта следующего года он получил свою 20-ю красную карточку за «Реал Мадрид» в победе над «Лас-Пальмасом» со счетом 2:1, ранее забив гол в начале матча ударом головой с углового удара Иско. 2 апреля 2016 года он вернулся после дисквалификации в матче с «Барселоной» (2:1) на «Камп Ноу», где он снова был удален, получив свою 21-ю красную карточку и четвертую в Класико[18].

В 2016 году «Реал Мадрид» вышел в финал Лиги чемпионов, где встретился с мадридским «Атлетико». Рамос снова забил в финале, выведя «Реал» вперед в первом тайме. На тот момент он был всего лишь пятым игроком, забившим в двух разных финалах Лиги чемпионов после Рауля, Самуэля Это’о, Лионеля Месси и Криштиану Роналду. После того как «Атлетико» сравнял счет во втором тайме, он забил пенальти в серии пенальти, в результате которой «Реал Мадрид» выиграл со счетом 5:3; таким образом, он поднял свой первый трофей Лиги чемпионов в качестве капитана[51]. По словам журналиста Майкла Кокса, он также заметно изменил баланс игры в пользу «Реал Мадрида», поставив подножку Яннику Карраско и остановив контратаку три на три в оставшееся 30 секунд до конца матча время при счете 1:1[52]. После игры УЕФА назвал его лучшим игроком матча[51]. Выиграв финал, «Реал Мадрид» получил право сыграть с победителем Лиги Европы УЕФА 2015/16 годов «Севильей» в Суперкубке УЕФА 2016 года[53]. Рамос закончил сезон 2015/16 годов с тремя голами в 33 матчах, что стало его самым низким показателем и самым малым количеством матчей, проведенных им в «Реале» до этого момента из-за продолжающихся травм.

Сезон 2016/17

Рамос начал игру в Суперкубке УЕФА 2016 года в Тронхейме, забив на 93-й минуте второй гол «Реала», сравнявший счет в матче, и, таким образом, переведя игру в дополнительное время. В итоге «Реал» победил со счетом 3:2, а Рамос был признан лучшим игроком матча[54]. 3 декабря 2016 года он забил свой четвёртый гол в Класико, сравняв счет в матче с «Барселоной» при ничьей 1:1 на «Камп Ноу» на 90-й минуте, продлив беспроигрышную серию «Мадрида» до 33 матчей[55]. Через неделю он забил ещё один поздний гол, на этот раз на 92-й минуте, благодаря чему «Мадрид» одержал победу со счетом 3:2 над «Депортиво Ла-Корунья»[56] .

15 января 2017 года Рамос забил собственный гол в конце матча против «Севильи», который сравнял счет 1:1, и в итоге «Реал Мадрид» проиграл матч 2:1 в компенсированное время, тем самым прервав свою беспроигрышную серию из 40 матчей[57]. Неделю спустя он забил оба гола в победе 2:1 над «Малагой», записав на свой счет 50-й гол в Ла Лиге[58]. 11 февраля в победе 3:1 над «Осасуной» Рамос провёл свой 500-й матч в составе клуба[59]. Во втором туре Лиги чемпионов Рамос забил важный гол в ворота «Наполи», сравняв счет в гостевом матче 3:1, и «Реал Мадрид» вышел в четвертьфинал, выиграв по сумме двух матчей 6:2. 12 марта Рамос забил ещё один поздний гол за «Реал Мадрид», на этот раз против «Реал Бетис» на «Сантьяго Бернабеу» со счетом 2:1, доведя свой голевой счет до 10 в сезоне, впервые в своей карьере забив двузначное число голов за сезон. Благодаря голу Рамоса «Реал Мадрид» вернулся на вершину турнирной таблицы чемпионата[60]. 23 апреля испанец был удалён в 22-й раз в своей карьере и в пятый раз в Эль-Класико, получив прямую красную карточку за удар Лионеля Месси двумя ногами во время контратаки «Барселоны» в домашнем поражении 3:2[61]. «Реал Мадрид» выиграл свой 33-й титул чемпиона Ла Лиги, что стало для защитника четвёртым титулом чемпиона и первым в качестве капитана[62][63]. В финале Лиги чемпионов УЕФА 2017 года команда впервые с сезона 1957/58 годов выиграла дубль Лиги и Кубка европейских чемпионов, победив «Ювентус». Это также сделало Рамоса первым игроком, который стал капитаном команды, выигравшей два раза подряд еврокубки в эпоху Лиги чемпионов УЕФА[64]. Его десять голов в 2016/17 годах стали его самым результативным сезоном[65].

Сезон 2017/18

20 августа 2017 года в первой игре «Реала» в Ла Лиге 2017/18 он получил 23-ю красную карточку в своей карьере. Это была его 18-я красная карточка в Ла Лиге, что является совместным рекордом. В дальнейшем он побил этот рекорд, получив свою 19-ю красную в Ла Лиге в ничьей 0:0 с «Атлетик Бильбао»[66]. Рамос забил свой первый гол в сезоне 13 сентября в Лиге чемпионов, забив с пенальти в матче 1-го игрового дня против АПОЭЛа[67]. В Ла Лиге Рамос забил четыре гола, включая два пенальти — против «Леганеса» и «Севильи». В Лиге чемпионов УЕФА 2017/18 годов он провёл одиннадцать матчей и забил один гол, когда «Мадрид» выиграл свой третий подряд и 13-й общий титул Лиги чемпионов[68]. Выступление Рамоса в финале, однако, было встречено критикой[69]; столкновение с Мохамедом Салахом привёло к тому, что египтянин вывихнул плечо и пропустил остаток игры[70], и он ударил локтем в голову кипера «Ливерпуля» Лориса Кариуса, у вратаря позже было диагностировано сотрясение мозга[71][72]. Испанец позже отрицал, что он намеренно ударил Кариуса, заявив, что Вирджил ван Дейк толкнул его на Кариуса[73]. Рамос стал первым игроком, который стал капитаном команды, трижды подряд побеждавшей в Лиге чемпионов, и теперь он побеждал в Лиге чемпионов в каждом сезоне в качестве капитана[74].

Сезон 2018/19

Рамос начал сезон 2018/19, забив пенальти в матче за Суперкубок УЕФА 2018 года против мадридского «Атлетико» (4:2). Пробив пенальти, Рамос стал новым пенальтистом команды после ухода Криштиану Роналду[75]. 26 августа 2018 года Рамос забил ещё один пенальти в гостевой победе «Реала» над «Жироной» со счетом 4:1, став единственным игроком, наряду с Лионелем Месси, забивавшим в каждом из последних 15 сезонов Ла Лиги[76]. Неделю спустя Рамос забил свой третий пенальти в сезоне в матче против «Леганеса» со счетом 4:1 на «Сантьяго Бернабеу» — свой первый гол дома с марта 2017 года[77].

20 октября 2018 года Рамос провёл свой 400-й матч в Ла Лиге за «Реал Мадрид», проиграв дома «Леванте» со счетом 2:1, став лишь десятым игроком «Реала», достигшим этого рубежа[78]. После серии неудачных результатов и увольнения Юлена Лопетеги, Рамос забил свой первый гол за «Реал Мадрид» за два месяца с помощью «паненки» в матче против «Реал Вальядолид» в первой игре Сантьяго Солари за «сливочных» в Ла Лиге 2018/19[79]. Две недели спустя, 11 ноября, Рамос забил ещё одну паненку против «Сельты», став 25-й командой, против которой он забил в чемпионтате[80]. Это была третья «паненка» Рамоса из его последних четырёх пенальти, а изобретатель пенальти Антонин Паненка сказал, что Рамос является лучшим «подражателем» его техники исполнения пенальти[81]. Забив пять голов за первые три месяца сезона, Рамос начал свой лучший сезон в «Реал Мадриде»[82]. На Клубном чемпионате мира по футболу 2018 года защитник сыграл в полуфинале против «Касима Антлерс» и в финале против «Аль-Айн». Испанец забил головой в финале, когда «Реал Мадрид» выиграл со счетом 3:1 и завоевал свой третий подряд Клубный чемпионат мира ФИФА[83]. Рамос стал первым игроком, который выиграл три Клубных чемпионата мира ФИФА подряд, а также первым защитником, забившим в двух финалах Клубного чемпионата мира[84].

9 января 2019 года Рамос забил пенальти в матче Кубка Испании против «Леганеса», который стал его 100-м голом в карьере, не считая 2 голов за резервную команду «Севильи»[85]. В честь гола Рамос решил показать пальцами цифру 100[86]. 24 января Рамос забил дубль в ворота «Жироны» в первом матче четвертьфинала Кубка Испании в домашней победе 4:2[87]. Это был четвёртый дубль Рамоса за «Реал Мадрид» и первый в кубке[88]. Три дня спустя Рамос забил свой 10-й гол в кампании ударом головой в ворота «Эспаньола» в гостевом матче 4:2, который также стал его 60-м голом в Ла Лиге[89]. С десятью голами Рамос сравнялся со своим самым результативным сезоном в «Реал Мадриде», который он провёл в 2016/17 годах[90].

6 февраля 2019 года Серхио Рамос в 40-й раз сыграл в Класико. Три дня спустя, в мадридском дерби против «Атлетико», Рамос забил свой восьмой пенальти в сезоне и 11-й гол во всех соревнованиях, что стало его лучшим голевым сезоном в «Реале»[91]. Четыре дня спустя, в гостевой победе над «Аяксом» (2:1) в первом матче 1/8 финала Лиги чемпионов, Рамос стал седьмым игроком, сыгравшим 600 матчей за «Реал»[92]. В матче против «Аякса» Рамос был удален за, казалось бы, ненужный вызов на 90-й минуте. Это удаление означало, что Рамос пропустит второй матч против «Аякса» на «Сантьяго Бернабеу» из-за дисквалификации за накопление жёлтых карточек. Это вызвало споры после того, как Рамос в послематчевом интервью намекнул журналистам, что жёлтая карточка была умышленной, что нарушает правила УЕФА[93]. Спустя две с половиной недели УЕФА начал дисциплинарное расследование по этому поводу и решил наложить на Рамоса дисквалификацию на две игры, что означает, что он пропустит и второй матч Лиги чемпионов против «Аякса», и первый матч четвертьфинала, если «Реал Мадрид» пройдет квалификацию[94]. Из-за того, что «Реал Мадрид» был выбит «Аяксом», дисквалификация перешла на следующий сезон, и Рамос пропустил первый матч Лиги чемпионов сезона 2019/20 против «Пари Сен-Жермен»[95].

17 февраля Рамос сыграл свой 601-й матч за «Реал Мадрид» против «Жироны» в чемпионате, сравнявшись с рекордом легенд «Реала» Фернандо Йерро и Франсиско Хенто[96]. Десять дней спустя Рамос сыграл в своём 41-м Эль-Класико, в полуфинальном матче второго тура Копа дель Рей у себя дома. Это был 602-й матч Рамоса за «Реал Мадрид», и он занял пятое место в списке всех выступлений за «Реал Мадрид»[97]. 2 марта Рамос сыграл в Эль-Класико Ла Лиги на «Бернабеу», сравнявшись с рекордом Хенто, Мануэля Санчиса и Хави, сыграв в 42 Класико[98]. 5 марта «Реал Мадрид» был выбит из Лиги чемпионов «Аяксом» после поражения 4:1 на «Сантьяго Бернабеу» (общее количество 5:3 в пользу «Аякса»)[99]. Рамос не играл, поскольку был отстранён от игры после жёлтой карточки в первом матче, за что подвергся критике[100]. Более того, испанец подвёргся ещё большей критике, когда был пойман со съемочной группой на трибунах, снимая свой новый документальный фильм для Amazon Prime[101]. Рамос обратился к своим аккаунтам в Twitter и Instagram, чтобы обсудить споры вокруг его действий, в которых он признал, что жёлтая карточка против «Аякса» в первом матче «была ошибкой, и я беру вину на себя на 200 %». Что касается съёмок документального фильма, Серхио заявил, что перед этим были взяты «определенные обязательства» и он не предполагал, что игра сложится так, как сложилась[102]. В начале апреля Рамос получил травму икры, из-за которой пропустил остаток кампании и последние восемь матчей Ла Лиги[103].

Сезон 2019/20

Рамос в товарищеском матче против «Ред Булл Зальцбург», 2019 год

Первый гол Рамоса в сезоне был забит головой в его первом матче Лиги чемпионов 1 октября в домашнем матче против клуба «Брюгге». Этот гол пришёлся как нельзя кстати: к перерыву «Реал Мадрид» проигрывал 2:0, но смог отыграться после очередного удара головой Каземиро. Это также был первый гол Серхио в Лиге чемпионов за два сезона[104]. 30 октября Рамос забил с пенальти в домашней победе над «Леганесом» со счетом 5:0, продолжив свою серию голов в 16 сезонах Ла Лиги подряд, снова сравнявшись с Месси[105]. Через неделю, 6 ноября, испанец забил свой первый пенальти в Лиге чемпионов, в домашней победе над «Галатасараем» со счетом 6:0. Это был ещё один пенальти в стиле «паненки», и, кроме того, Рамос впервые забил в двух групповых матчах Лиги чемпионов в одном сезоне[106]. 18 декабря Рамос сыграл в своем 43-м Эль-Класико, став рекордсменом по количеству забитых мячей в этом историческом матче[107].

12 января 2020 года Рамос забил победный пенальти в серии пенальти в финале Суперкубке Испании против «Атлетико Мадрид» в Джидде, когда «Реал Мадрид» выиграл 4:1 по пенальти после ничьей 0:0 после дополнительного времени. Это был первый случай в карьере Рамоса, когда он забил победный пенальти в серии[108] . Титул Суперкопы 2020 года стал 21-м трофеем Рамоса в составе «Реала»[109]. Месяц спустя Рамос забил ещё один гол в Ла Лиге, на этот раз в гостях у «Осасуны», когда «Реал» выиграл со счетом 4:1 и сохранил первое место в таблице[110]. Гол Серхио на «Эль-Садар» означал, что он забил на 20 различных стадионах Ла Лиги[111]. Это был первый гол в чемпионате в 2020 году, что означает, что он стал единственным игроком, забивавшим в Ла Лиге в каждом из последних 17 календарных лет — начиная с 2004 года[112].

26 февраля 2020 года Рамос побил рекорд по количеству красных карточек, полученных в Лиге чемпионов УЕФА. С четырьмя красными карточками он делит нежелательный рекорд со Златаном Ибрагимовичем и Эдгаром Давидсом[113]. Это удаление произошло во время домашнего поражения от «Манчестер Сити» со счетом 2:1 в первом матче 1/8 финала, за тактический фол на нападающем «Сити» Габриэле Жезусе[113]. Четыре дня спустя защитник сыграл в домашней победе «Реала» над «Барселоной» со счетом 2:0 в Ла Лиге, благодаря чему «Барселона» вышла на первое место[114]. Это было 21-е подряд Класико Рамоса во всех соревнованиях и 30-е в Ла Лиге в составе «Реала»[115].

Когда Ла Лига возобновилась после трехмесячного перерыва, вызванного пандемией COVID-19, Рамос забил в первом матче «Реала» против «Эйбара» 14 июня на стадионе «Альфредо ди Стефано» со счетом 3:1[116]. Он также забил первый гол на этом стадионе в первом матче в мае 2006 года[117]. Гол Рамоса начался с того, что он отвоевал мяч у атаки «Эйбара» в нескольких метрах за пределами собственной штрафной площади «Мадрида» и пробежал 70 метров по полю, чтобы найти пас от Эдена Азара и забить свой первый гол в чемпионате с открытой игры более чем за пять лет[118]. 21 июня Рамос забил пенальти за «Реал Мадрид» в победе 2:1 над «Реал Сосьедадом» на «Аноэте», который стал 20-м подряд пенальти, реализованным им за клуб и страну (включая пенальти)[119]. Три дня спустя Рамос забил штрафной удар в победе 2:0 над «Мальоркой» на стадионе «Альфредо ди Стефано» и стал самым забивным защитником Ла Лиги с 68 голами, превзойдя 67 гол Рональда Кумана в составе «Барселоны»[120]. Свободный удар Рамоса также стал его восьмым голом в чемпионате в этом сезоне, что сделало эту кампанию самой плодотворной в лиге на сегодняшний день и десятой во всех соревнованиях, что позволило ему третий раз в сезоне достичь двойного показателя[121]. 28 июня испанец принял участие в выездной победе над «Эспаньолом» со счетом 1:0, передав мяч прямо за пределами штрафной площади «Эспаньола» Кариму Бензема, который в итоге помог Каземиро забить победный мяч перед самым перерывом[122]. Это был 645-й матч Рамоса за «Мадрид», в результате чего он поднялся на четвёртое место в списке самых результативных игроков клуба за всю историю клуба вместе с Сантильяной[123]. 2 июля Серхио забил свой пятнадцатый подряд пенальти за «Реал Мадрид» на 79-й минуте, который оказался победным в домашней победе над «Хетафе» со счетом 1:0, открыв преимущество в четыре очка на вершине Ла Лиги[124][125]. Это был девятый гол Рамоса в лиге в этом сезоне — он сравнялся с рекордом, установленным аргентинским защитником Эсекьелем Гараем в 2006/07 годах, когда он играл за «Расинг», для защитника с наибольшим количеством голов в одном сезоне Ла Лиги[126]. Пенальти в ворота «Хетафе» означал, что Рамос превзошел свой лучший сезон по забитым голам (11 голов), который был установлен в прошлом сезоне. Теперь Рамос забивал в четырёх из шести матчей «Мадрида» с момента возобновления сезона, больше, чем любой другой игрок[127]. Кроме того, этот гол стал его 100-м голом за клуб в карьере и 70-м в чемпионате[128]. Победа над «Хетафе» стала 450-м выходом испанца в Ла Лиге в составе «Реала», он стал лишь пятым игроком, достигшим этого рубежа[129]. Три дня спустя он забил ещё один пенальти — 22-й подряд и десятый в сезоне в Ла Лиге — в гостевой победе над «Атлетик Бильбао» со счетом 1:0[130][131]. Он также стал первым центральным защитником, забившим 10 голов в сезоне Ла Лиги со времен Фернандо Йерро в сезоне 1993/94 годом[132]. 19 июля Рамос забил свой одиннадцатый гол в Ла Лиге в последнем матче «Реала» в сезоне Ла Лиги против «Леганеса», завершившемся вничью 2:2, и стал его самым результативным сезоном в «белых» с 13 голами во всех соревнованиях[133]. В конце сезона Серхио выиграл свой пятый титул чемпиона в составе «сливочных» и 34-й титул «Реала» в целом[134].

Последний сезон в «Реал Мадрид»

27 сентября 2020 года Рамос открыл свой голевой счет в сезоне, забив победный гол в ворота «Реал Бетис» с пенальти на «Бенито Вильямарин» в победе 3:2 в чемпионате[135]. Через месяц, 24 октября, в Эль-Класико, Рамос заработал и реализовал пенальти на «Камп Ноу», выиграв чемпионат со счетом 3:1. Это был его 25-й подряд гол с пенальти за клуб и страну (включая серии пенальти)[136][137]. Пятый гол Рамоса в Эль-Класико сравнялся с рекордом Рональда Кумана (который был в другом блиндаже в качестве менеджера) как защитника с наибольшим количеством голов в этом историческом матче. Это было также 31-е подряд Класико в Ла Лиге, то есть он не пропустил ни одного с момента перехода в «Реал» в 2005 году, сравнявшись с Раулем и Пако Хенто как игроками, сыгравшими в наибольшем количестве Класико в Лиге[138]. Три дня спустя Рамос сыграл свой первый матч Лиги чемпионов в сезоне против мёнхенгладбахской «Боруссии», ассистировав Каземиро на 93-й минуте при равном счете 2:2[139]. Это был 16-й матч Рамоса в Лиге чемпионов в составе «Реала», что стало рекордом легенды клуба, бывшего капитана и партнера по команде Икера Касильяса[140]. 31 октября Рамос стал 10-м игроком, сыгравшим 500 матчей в Ла Лиге (461 за «Реал Мадрид» и 39 за «Севилью»), когда «Мадрид» победил «Уэску» со счетом 4:1 на стадионе «Альфредо Ди Стефано»[141]. 3 ноября Рамос забил свой 100-й гол за «Реал Мадрид» во всех соревнованиях, победив миланский «Интер» в Лиге чемпионов со счетом 3:2[142] .

14 января Рамос сделал четыре обезболивающих укола в левое колено, чтобы сыграть против «Атлетик Бильбао» в полуфинале Суперкубка Испании, который «Реал Мадрид» проиграл со счетом 2:1[143]. Это был последний матч Рамоса перед тем, как он впервые в своей карьере решился на операцию в середине сезона по поводу разрыва мениска в левом колене[144]. Ожидалось, что он выбыл на два месяца и вернется в начале апреля, но после быстрого восстановления Рамос начал игру против «Эльче» 13 марта — чуть больше месяца спустя после того, как он лег под нож[145]. Победа «Реала» над «Эльче» со счетом 2:1 стала 334-й победой Рамоса в Ла Лиге (315 в составе «Реала» и 19 в составе «Севильи»), сравнявшись с рекордом Икера Касильяса как игрока, одержавшего второе место по количеству побед в испанской высшей лиге — только после Месси[146]. Четыре дня спустя Рамос впервые за три года сыграл во втором матче раунда 1/8 финала Лиги чемпионов, когда «Реал Мадрид» победил «Аталанту» со счетом 3:1 на стадионе «Альфредо ди Стефано» (5:3 по сумме двух матчей) и вышел в четвертьфинал впервые с момента своей последней победной кампании в Лиге чемпионов в 2018 году. Рамос забил свой 19-й подряд пенальти за «Мадрид» на 60-й минуте, который поставил точку в матче, после чего вышел на замену[147]. Это был 15-й гол Рамоса в Лиге чемпионов, сравнявшись с бывшими партнерами по команде Жераром Пике и Иваном Эльгерой как вторые по количеству забитых мячей защитники в истории соревнований — их опережает только бывший партнер по команде Роберто Карлос[148].

«Пришло время попрощаться с «Реалом», и это один из самых тяжелых моментов в моей жизни».

— сказал Рамос на прощальной пресс-конференции, не сдержав слёз[149]

Из-за травмы Рамос пропустил своё первое Эль-Класико с момента перехода в «Реал», положив конец серии из 31 матча подряд в Лиге Класико[150]. Позже он пропустил второй матч четвертьфинала Лиги чемпионов против «Ливерпуля», так как у него был обнаружен COVID-19, хотя он также был травмирован[151]. 5 мая, во втором матче полуфинала Лиги чемпионов против «Челси», его команда проиграла 2:0 и выбыла из соревнования; однако затем он получил травму левого подколенного сухожилия, из-за которой ему пришлось пропустить остаток сезона; это означало, что он провёл свой последний матч за «Реал Мадрид»[152]. В 2020-21 годах Рамос сыграл всего 21 матч за «сливочных», что стало самым травмоопасным для него сезоном, после того как в каждой из 15 предыдущих кампаний в клубе он провёл не менее 33 матчей[153].

16 июня «Реал Мадрид» объявил, что Рамос покидает клуб после 16 лет выступлений за него[154]. Во время прощального мероприятия на следующий день испанец, который изначально просил о двухлетнем контракте, упомянул, что согласился на продление контракта на один год с понижением зарплаты; однако срок действия предложения истёк без его ведома[155].

«Пари Сен-Жермен»

8 июля 2021 года «Пари Сен-Жермен» объявил о переходе Рамоса в статусе свободного агента, контракт был подписан до 30 июня 2023 года[156]. Рамос решил носить футболку с номером 4, а Тило Керер перешёл на футболку с номером 24[157]. Рамос сказал: «Я довольно суеверен в этом вопросе, и мне нравится номер 4, потому что я ношу этот номер с самого начала своей карьеры, и он сопровождает меня на протяжении всей моей карьеры и жизни, принося удачу и множество побед»[157]. Во время медицинского обследования, необходимого для подписания контракта, медицинский персонал «ПСЖ» был впечатлён его серьёзностью и телосложением, а результаты медицинского обследования были отмечены как отличные и невероятные[158][159]. Во время медицинского обследования, которое длилось 5 часов, медицинский персонал отметил, что тогдашний 35-летний игрок имел телосложение 25-летнего[160]. 1 ноября 2021 года появилась информация, что ПСЖ планирует разорвать контракт с защитником, так как Рамос не смог восстановиться от различных травм, свой последний матч Рамос провёл ещё в мае[161].

28 ноября 2021 года Рамос дебютировал за ПСЖ в матче 15-го тура чемпионата Франции против «Сент-Этьена» (3:1) проведя на поле весь матч[162]. 22 декабря 2021 года, в своём втором матче в чемпионате, в 19-м туре против «Лорьяна» (1:1) в течение пяти минут получил две жёлтые карточки и был удалён с поля[163].

Карьера в сборной

Начало международной карьеры и чемпионат мира по футболу 2006 года

В 2004 году Рамос сразу же стал звездой испанской сборной до 19 лет, за которую он сыграл шесть международных матчей. Во время чемпионата Европы 2004 года (до 19 лет) Рамос был ключевой фигурой для сборной Испании, так как он начал играть в четырёх из пяти матчей на пути к победе на своём втором чемпионате Европы, в том числе забил решающий пенальти в полуфинале против сборной Украины[164][165].

26 марта 2005 года в товарищеском матче с Китаем (3:0) в Саламанке он впервые вышел на поле за сборную в возрасте всего 18 лет и 361 дня, став самым молодым игроком, игравшим за сборную за последние 55 лет. Он удерживал этот рекорд до 1 марта 2006 года, когда он был побит Сеском Фабрегасом в товарищеском матче против сборной Кот-д’Ивуара[166]. 12 октября 2005 года Рамос забил свои первые два гола на международной арене в гостевом разгроме сборной Сан-Марино со счетом 6:0 в рамках отборочного турнира чемпионата мира по футболу 2006 года[167]. Он был выбран для участия в финальной стадии в Германии и, после ухода из сборной товарища по команде «Реал Мадрид» Мичела Сальгадо, стал бесспорным правым защитником первого выбора. Несмотря на то, что Рамос носит майку с номером 4 за «Реал Мадрид», он признался, что носит номер 15 за сборную Испании в память о своем близком друге и бывшем партнере по команде «Севилья» Антонио Пуэрте, который умер в августе 2007 года и дебютировал в сборной Испании под номером 15[168][169].

Чемпионат Европы 2008 года

На протяжении всей отборочной кампании Евро-2008 Рамос регулярно выходил в стартовых одиннадцати матчах сборной Испании, которая заняла первое место в своей группе, опередив сборную Швеции. В 11 матчах он забил два гола, в том числе один в гостевой победе над сборной Дании (3:1). В финальных стадиях турнира защитник сыграл во всех матчах, кроме победы над сборной Греции (2:1) на групповом этапе. В финале его пас едва не привёл к первому международному голу Маркоса Сенны, но тот упустил свою возможность с минимальным перевесом. Во время празднования после победы над cборной Германии со счетом 1:0 он надел футболку в честь своего покойного друга Пуэрты[170].

Кубок конфедераций 2009 и чемпионат мира 2010 года

Рамос был выбран в состав сборной на Кубок конфедераций 2009 года в Южной Африке, где Испания заняла третье место[171]. 3 июня 2010 года он впервые стал капитаном сборной Испании в товарищеском матче 1:0 против сборной Южной Кореи в Инсбруке[172].

На чемпионате мира 2010 года, проходившем в той же стране, Рамос отыграл все минуты турнира в качестве правого защитника, помог Испании сохранить пять чистых мячей и выйти в финал, который они выиграли 1:0 у сборной Нидерландов; он возглавил рейтинг Castrol Performance Index турнира, набрав 9,79 балла[173]. Несмотря на игру на позиции правого защитника, он также совершил больше сольных проходов, чем любой другой игрок на турнире — 31[174].

Чемпионат Европы 2012 года

На Евро-2012 Рамос вернулся в центр обороны. Когда его спросили о смене амплуа, он ответил: «Я адаптировался и чувствую себя комфортно в центре, но я чемпион мира и Европы на позиции правого защитника»[175]. Он сыграл во всех матчах в Польше и Украине вместе с игроком «Барселоны» Жераром Пике и в полуфинале против сборной Португалии реализовал пенальти, забив в итоге победу со счетом 4:2 (0:0 после 120 минут) в стиле «паненки»[176]. 1 июля Рамос завоевал свой третий трофей в составе старшей сборной Испании, разгромив в финале сборную Италию со счетом 4:0. Выступления Рамоса на Евро принесли ему место в символической команде турнира[177]. Во время празднования Евро-2012 Рамос надел другую футболку, чтобы отдать дань памяти своему покойному другу Пуэрте[178].

Кубок конфедераций 2013 и чемпионат мира 2014 года

22 марта 2013 года Рамос отметил свой 100-й матч за сборную, открыв счёт в матче против сборной Финляндии (1:1) в Хихоне в рамках отборочного турнира к чемпионату мира 2014 года. Он стал самым молодым европейским игроком, когда-либо достигшим этой цифры, опередив Лукаса Подольски из Германии[11]. В июне Рамос принял участие в Кубке конфедераций 2013 года в Бразилии, начав каждый матч, так как Испания проиграла хозяевам в финале. Он был капитаном команды во втором групповом матче, выигранном у сборной Таити со счетом 10:0 на «Маракане», что стало самой крупной победой в его карьере[179]. 30 июня он промахнулся с пенальти в финале Кубка конфедераций, проигранном сборной Бразилии со счетом 3:0[180].

Рамос был выбран на свой третий чемпионат мира в 2014 году[181]. Он сыграл все 90 минут в каждом из матчей команды в Бразилии, каждый раз с разными партнерами в центральной защите, поскольку действующие чемпионы были исключены из группового этапа[182][183][184].

Евро-2016 и чемпионат мира 2018 года

Рамос празднует забитый гол в ворота сборной России в товарищеском матче в Санкт-Петербурге.

В феврале 2016 года Рамос получил награду Луиса Арагонеса от Marca, которая отметила его как лучшего игрока национальной команды за прошедший год[185]. После того, как Давид де Хеа был выбран вместо Икера Касильяса в стартовый состав сборной Испании, Рамос стал капитаном команды на Евро-2016. 21 июня 2016 года он реализовал пенальти, отбитый Даниелем Субашичем в матче с сборной Хорватией (2:1)[186]. Испания заняла второе место в своей группе на Евро и выбыла в 1/8 финала против сборной Италии[187].

23 марта 2018 года, за несколько дней до того, как ему исполнилось 32 года, Рамос заработал свой 150-й мяч за сборную Испании в товарищеском матче с Германией в Дюссельдорфе (1:1). Только Икер Касильяс ранее достиг этой отметки за команду[188].

Рамос был включён в состав сборной Испании на чемпионат мира 2018 года и отправился на свой четвёртый турнир и первый чемпионат мира в качестве капитана после пропуска Икера Касильяса[189]. Он сыграл во всех трех матчах Испании на групповом этапе, так как они заняли первое место в «группе смерти», опередив чемпионов Европы Португалию[190]. В матче 1/8 финала против сборной России Рамос считал, что он забил первый гол, но позже этот гол был засчитан как автогол Сергея Игнашевича[191]. Матч закончился со счетом 1:1 после дополнительного времени и был решен по пенальти (4:2), когда хозяева выбили «красная фурию». Рамос забил четвёртый пенальти Испании, но этого оказалось недостаточно, так как партнеры по команде Коке и Яго Аспас не смогли обыграть вратаря[192][193].

Лига наций и квалификация Евро-2020

При новом тренере Луисе Энрике Рамос сохранил капитанство в сборной. Он сыграл во всех четырёх матчах группового турнира Лиги наций УЕФА 2018/19, став лучшим бомбардиром сборной в группе с тремя голами — один против сборной Англии и два против сборной Хорватии[194][195]. Испания заняла второе место в своей группе Лиги наций, из-за чего не попала в финал Лиги наций 2019 года[196]. В марте 2019 года Рамос забил победный мяч в первом матче отборочного турнира Евро-2020 против сборной Норвегии с пенальти «паненкой», выиграв 2:1[197]. Это был его десятый пенальти в сезоне, и он забил их все. Он также забил за сборную Испании в пятом матче подряд, что является его личным рекордом[198]. После матча тренер сборной Испании Энрике назвал Рамоса «уникальным игроком в истории»[199].

Во втором матче квалификации Евро-2020, в гостях у сборной Мальты, Рамос впервые за шесть матчей за сборную Испании не забил, не сумев продлить свою голевую серию. Однако матч закончился со счетом 2:0 в пользу Испании, что стало его 121-й победой в составе «красной фурии», сравнявшись с абсолютным рекордом Икера Касильяса[200]. 7 июня 2019 года Рамос побил рекорд по количеству побед на международных соревнованиях — 122, победив сборную Фарерских островов со счетом 4:1, забив при этом первый гол Испании[201]. Три дня спустя, перед матчем со сборной Швецией, Рамос получил от Федерации футбола Испании памятную доску в честь своего рекорда[202]. Матч закончился со счетом 3:0 в пользу сборной Испании, где он забил первый гол и довёл свой рекорд до 123 международных побед[203].

5 сентября 2019 года Рамос забил с пенальти свой 21-й международный гол, открыв счёт в гостевой победе Испании над сборной Румынии со счётом 2:1 в отборочном матче Евро-2020, что позволило ему стать 10-м лучшим бомбардиром в истории национальной команды, наряду с Мичелом[204]. 8 сентября Рамос одержал свою 167-ю победу за сборную Испании в домашнем матче с Фарерскими островами (4:0) в рамках отборочного турнира Евро-2020; этим появлением он сравнялся с Икером Касильясом, став самым титулованным игроком Испании всех времен[205]. 12 октября 2019 года он стал единственным самым титулованным игроком страны[206].

Лига наций 2020/21

6 сентября 2020 года Рамос забил два гола в матче со сборной Украины (4:0) в Лиге наций 2020/21, достигнув 23 голов и сравнявшись с Альфредо Ди Стефано в качестве восьмого по количеству голов за всю историю Испании[207]. 14 ноября 2020 года в матче со сборной Швейцарией (1:1) сыграл свой 177-й матч за Испанию и превзошёл рекорд Джанлуиджи Буффона по количеству международных матчей, сыгранных европейским игроком[208].

Чемпионат Европы 2020 года

Рамос был исключён из состава сборной на Евро-2020 после сезона, связанного с травмами. Его исключение стало первым крупным турниром с Евро-2004, на котором он не был вызван в сборную, что положило конец его участию в десяти турнирах подряд[209].

Характеристика игрока

Стиль игры

Рамос считается одним из лучших защитников мира и своего поколения. Это физически сильный игрок, который превосходит всех в воздухе благодаря своему росту, видению поля и точности удара, что делает его голевой угрозой на матчах[210][9][211][212][213][214][215][216]; он также компетентный и агрессивный нападающий. В дополнение к своим оборонительным навыкам и способности забивать голы[210][9][211], он одарён темпом[212], и комфортно чувствует себя на поле[217], обладая хорошими техническими способностями, а также хорошим распределением, пасом и переходом[210][9][211][218], что позволяет ему продвигать мяч вперёд, переключать игру длинными мячами или играть сзади на земле[219][220]. Согласно испанской спортивной газете Marca, официальные записи ФИФА подтвердили, что в 2015 году Рамос показал скорость 30,6 километра в час, что делает его одним из самых быстрых футболистов в мире на тот момент[221]. Он также является точным исполнителем пенальти и известен тем, что часто использует технику «паненки» при их исполнении[222][223]. Он также известен как исполнитель штрафных ударов, благодаря своей способности закручивать мяч и мощному удару с дистанции[224][225][226][227][228].

Столкновение Рамоса с Антонио Кассано во время финального матча чемпионата Европы 2012 года.

Рамос заслужил похвалу за лидерство, атлетизм, техническое мастерство, способность отлично действовать как в атаке, так и в обороне, а также за универсальность, которая позволяет ему играть как центрального, так и крайнего защитника; в молодости он часто играл как правый защитник, а по ходу карьеры зарекомендовал себя как центральный защитник. Благодаря широкому спектру навыков, его бывший тренер «Реал Мадрид» Карло Анчелотти сравнивал его с легендарным защитником Паоло Мальдини; в 2014 году он назвал его «лучшим защитником в мире на данный момент»[215][218][229], это мнение повторил Джорджо Кьеллини в 2020 году[230]. Рамос также иногда использовался в качестве центрального или оборонительного полузащитника, в частности, при Анчелотти в сезоне 2014/15[231]. Рамоса хвалили за его решительные выступления в важных матчах, особенно за мадридский «Реал», благодаря его склонности забивать решающие голы для своей команды, и некоторые эксперты считают его одним из самых надежных исполнителей в ситуациях высокого давления[A]. Однако, несмотря на его способности как защитника, его тактическое чувство, последовательность и концентрация от матча к матчу иногда подвергались сомнению со стороны экспертов и других футбольных деятелей, которые обвиняли его в том, что он слишком импульсивен в своих действиях или склонен к случайным ошибкам в обороне в течение сезона[215][230][232][233][234][235][236].

Рамос также часто критикуется в СМИ за чрезмерное, безрассудное применение силы во время игры, а также за отсутствие дисциплины и склонность к получению чрезмерного количества ненужных карточек[237][238][239][240][241][242][243]; его также обвиняли в нырянии[244].

Дисциплинарная история

Рамос является обладателем множества дисциплинарных рекордов за мадридский «Реал», в Лиге чемпионов, чемпионате, Эль-Класико и в сборной Испании[245].

Рамос является рекордсменом по количеству карточек в Ла Лиге — 191 карточка. Его 171 жёлтая карточка превосходит Альберто Лопо, бывшего рекордсмена Ла Лиги по количеству жёлтых карточек[246]. Остальные 20 карточек — красные, что делает Рамоса самым удаляемым игроком в чемпионате Испании. Его рекорд по количеству карточек в Ла Лиге выше, чем у любого другого игрока в основных европейских лигах, что делает его самым удаляемым игроком во всех основных европейских высших дивизионах[247].

В Лиге чемпионов Рамос получил 40 жёлтых карточек и 4 красные (3 из которых были прямыми красными), что делает его самым удаляемым игроком и самым удаляемым игроком в истории Лиги чемпионов[248][249]. Наконец, Рамосу также принадлежит рекорд по количеству карточек в истории сборной Испании — 24 жёлтые карточки[247].

Личная жизнь

Серхио Рамос встречался с репортером Telecinco Ларой Альварес, расстались 7 июля, о разрыве Рамос сообщил по телефону, а после признался ей в любви[250]. С сентября 2012 года начал отношения со своей давней подругой, испанской телеведущей Пилар Рубио[es][251]. У них четверо сыновей: Серхио-младший (родился 6 мая 2014 года), Марко (родился 27 ноября 2015 года), Алехандро (родился 25 марта 2018 года) и Максимо Адриано (родился 26 июля 2020 года). 16 июля 2018 года Рамос сделал предложение Пилар Рубио[252]. 15 июня 2019 года пара официально скрепила свои отношения в Севилье, родном городе Рамоса[253].

Рамоса называют «семейным человеком», он поддерживает тесные отношения со своими братьями, сестрами и родителями[254]. Рене, брат Рамоса, в настоящее время является его футбольным агентом[255]. Рамос является поклонником корриды[256], а также страстным поклонником лошадей и владеет конезаводом в своей родной Андалусии, специально предназначенным для разведения андалузских лошадей[257]. Лошадь Рамоса «Yucatán SR4» стала чемпионом мира в 2018 году[258].

Татуировки

У Рамоса более 42 татуировок, в том числе Иисус и Мария, Звезда Давида в честь его бабушки Нены, которая подарила кулон такого же дизайна его матери; кроме того, у него есть татуировки льва, волка, ловца снов, карты Испании, вождя коренных американцев, хамсы, трофеев Кубка мира и Лиги чемпионов, членов его семьи и множество других[259].

Документальные фильмы

В январе 2019 года Amazon Prime и сам игрок объявили, что выпустят восьмисерийный документальный сериал о жизни Рамоса на поле и вне его под названием «Сердце Серхио Рамоса» (исп. El Corazón de Sergio Ramos). Это будет первый случай, когда публика увидит личную сторону Рамоса и его семьи[260]. 5 марта, во время матча второго тура Лиги чемпионов «Реал Мадрид», Рамос был удалён и наблюдал за матчем из своей VIP-зоны на трибунах. Его реакцию снимала съемочная группа Amazon Prime[261]. Это вызвало споры, поскольку «Реал Мадрид» проиграл матч и выбыл из турнира, хотя Рамос в своих социальных сетях предположил, что «были взяты определённые обязательства, и мне даже в голову не приходило, что игра могла сложиться так, как сложилась»[102].

Благодаря успеху первого документального сериала, снятого совместно с Amazon, в июне 2020 года Рамос объявил через свои социальные сети, что Amazon Prime выпустит ещё один документальный фильм под названием «Легенда о Серхио Рамосе» (исп. La Leyenda Sergio Ramos), в котором будут освещены наиболее яркие моменты его карьеры. Он был выпущен в Испании в апреле 2021 года, а в июне выйдет во всем мире и будет состоять из шести эпизодов[262][263].
