Paris Saint-Germain have signed Sergio Ramos on a free transfer after he left Real Madrid, the Ligue 1 side have announced.
Ramos left Madrid last month after failing to reach an agreement to extend his 16-year stay. He helped Real win four Champions League titles and five La Liga trophies. The 35-year-old, who has signed a two-year contract, joins PSG after they finished second last season behind champions Lille in Ligue 1 and were knocked out in the Champions League semi-finals by Manchester City. “The best place to keep on dreaming, the best club to keep on winning,” said Ramos in a post on social media. “We’re going to fight with everything we have for everything. Allez.” He went on: “Paris Saint-Germain is a club that has already proven itself at the highest level. “I want to continue to grow and improve at Paris and help the team to win as many trophies as possible.”
Ramos missed a large chunk of last season with injuries and was left out of Spain’s Euro 2020 squad but said when leaving Real that he was determined to keep proving himself at the top. He becomes PSG’s latest signing following the arrival of the Morocco defender Achraf Hakimi from Serie A side Inter on a five-year deal. PSG are also close to signing Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma on a free transfer after his contact with Milan expired at the end of last season.
