One of the best defenders of the modern generation, Sergio Ramos will end his 16-year association with Real Madrid this summer. The club has officially announced that Ramos will leave the club on a free transfer. This has naturally piqued the interest of top clubs across Europe, with Ramos' quality and leadership still in high demand.

Ramos enjoyed a stellar career with Real Madrid and is regarded as a legend of the club. However, the 2020/21 season proved to be a poor one for the 35-year old, with injury issues limiting his appearances for the club. He was not selected for the Spain squad for the Euros
either.

It will be interesting to see which club picks up Sergio Ramos. There is no denying his pedigree, but his injuries during his last season with Real Madrid could put some clubs off.

5: CHELSEA FC

It is no secret that Chelsea are interested in signing a centre-back this summer, with Wolfsburg's Maxence Lacroix and Bayern Munich's Niklas Sule linked with the club.

The Blues enjoyed great success after signing Thiago Silva on a free transfer last summer, and the availability of Sergio Ramos offers the club a similar opportunity. Ramos, like Silva, is highly experienced and one of the best centre-backs of this century. The Blues could focus on strengthening other positions in the squad if they manage to acquire the 35-year old on a free transfer.

The chance of playing for a club that has the potential to become one of the best in Europe will surely be a tantalizing prospect for Sergio Ramos. However, Chelsea are seemingly targeting younger players for the centre-back position, so for now it seems unlikely that the Spaniard will wear the blue of the club.

1: PARIS SAINT GERMAN

Paris Saint-Germain have been extremely active regarding transfers so far, having already signed midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum on a free transfer
and closing in on signing goalkeeper Gianluigi
Donnarumma, also on a free.

Sergio Ramos could be the next free agent to join the club. The Ligue 1 giants are among the favourites to sign the 35-year old, and clearly have the financial means to make a deal happen. Paris Saint-Germain boast Marquinhos and Presnel Kimpembe among their centre-back options, and Ramos would offer an excellent alternative to the two.

The Parisiens have shown shrewdness in recent transfer windows, making smart buys and building their squad around the talents of Neymar and Kylian Mbappe. There has been criticism aimed at the way sporting director Leonardo has operated at the club, and signing Sergio Ramos would be a good response.
