After 18 years, former Spanish defender Sergio Ramos has returned to his original club, Sevilla.
After leaving PSG on a free transfer, the 37-year-old has inked a one-year contract for the Spanish club side.
“It’s a very special day, returning home is always a tremendous joy,” said Ramos, who returns to Sevilla with the club bottom of La Liga.
“I am happy to return and try to contribute as soon as possible, which is the important thing.”
Ramos earned a record 180 caps for Spain over a span of 16 years, helping the team win a World Cup and two European Championships. He also helped Real Madrid win four Champions League titles.
He signed with Real Madrid in 2005 after spending his entire life on the outskirts of Seville, where he first joined the club’s academy at the age of seven.
Ramos played for 16 years in Madrid, during which time he made 671 appearances and won 22 trophies (5 La Liga wins, 5 Champions League victories).
After his Real contract finished in 2021, he signed with PSG and spent two seasons there, during which time the club won the league twice.
