At 38, Sergio Ramos chose Mexico for what could be his latest club challenge. An unexpected destination, but which seems to suit him perfectly. However, beyond his talent and his charisma, it is his attitude and the conditions of his contract that make people talk. The former captain of Real Madrid behaves as a real untouchable star, a merchant of the clauses that suggests that he wants to combine prestige and personal comfort.
Sergio Ramos, gold contract and extraordinary privileges
Monterrey did not hesitate to break his piggy bank to attract Sergio Ramos. According to various sources, his salary oscillates between 4 and 5 million euros annually, which makes him the best paid player of the team. But the financial aspect is not the only striking element of his contract. Reports evoke surprising clauses: the possibility of choosing the matches in which he wants to participate, special bonuses for the Club World Cup and even a percentage on the sale of jerseys flocked in his name. If this information is not completely confirmed by the most reliable sources, it already feeds a growing controversy.
An arrival that is debated
If Monterrey hoped to attract light with such recruitment, the presence of Ramos divides. On the one hand, his experience and his leadership are seen as an asset for the club. On the other hand, his requirements exasperate and give the image of a player more anxious to preserve his comfort than to fight on the field. Its beginnings in Liga MX were also scrutinized closely, with Spanish media which did not fail to emphasize that for the president of Monterrey, Ramos would be
“At Messi level”. A praise that made some smile and cringe others.
A last challenge or a golden retirement?
With this passage to Mexico, Sergio Ramos seems to want to write a last page to his legend, while offering himself an end of career under the spotlight, but without too much effort. It remains to be seen if his attitude will not end up annoying his club, even his teammates. For the moment, one thing is certain: Ramos continues to be talked about, on and off the field.
