Sergio Ramos, a Real Madrid legend, is in talks with a new club following Jurgen Klopp's criticism.
Real Madrid legend Sergio Ramos has been a free agent since leaving Sevilla over the summer, but the defender has now entered talks with a new club on a different continent.
Sergio Ramos is in talks to return to football by joining Argentine heavyweights Boca Juniors.
Ramos, a Real Madrid legend, left Sevilla in June when his one-year contract with the La Liga club expired, and he has since been a free agent. In that time, former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has slammed the Spaniard for his actions in the 2018 Champions League final.
Ramos, 38, cynically dragged down Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah in the first half, injuring Klopp's in-form star, and Real went on to win 3-1. Klopp appeared on ex-Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos' podcast, Einfach mal Lupen, this week and asked, "Is Mr Sergio Ramos really a good guy?"
"He isn't my favourite player. The action was brutal. Of course, he has no idea that it is bothering his shoulder, but we all know he gladly accepted it. I couldn't understand that mindset; I never had players like that, and when I did, I made sure they left."
According to Spanish outlet Relevo, Ramos and his representatives are speaking with Boca president Riquelme and manager Fernando Gago, a former Madrid teammate. The four-time Champions League winner is tempted by the opportunity and is considering a short-term move to Argentine football.
River Plate, Boca's bitter rivals, reportedly attempted to sign Ramos in the summer, but he turned them down. That is just one of the offers that the 180-time Spain international has turned down since leaving Sevilla, where he joined from Paris Saint-Germain in 2023.
Ramos has also been linked with a move to the soon-to-be MLS club San Diego, having discussed a move to North America earlier this year. "It is true that the United States is a country that attracts us a lot at the family level, but to this day there is nothing agreed with any team anywhere," Ramos observed.
