It has been a season of turmoil for La Liga outfit Sevilla. Grappling with managerial changes, a dismal Champions League exit, and an alarming position in La Liga, Sevilla finds itself under troubled waters. The return of legendary defender Sergio Ramos to his boyhood club was expected to be a ray of hope. However, that hasn’t been the case lately. Despite the struggles, a recent claim by a renowned Spanish journalist suggested that Ramos could be a starter at Real Madrid if he had opted to stay.

The seasoned Spanish defender’s reunion with his roots has now sparked a conversation that questions his decision. As Ramos’ much-anticipated comeback failed to deliver the anticipated success to the club, let’s delve into the journalist’s viewpoint.

Famous journalist makes a bold claim on Sergio Ramos’ return to Sevilla

Sevilla, the Europa League conquerors, now find themselves entangled in a relegation battle in La Liga. The disappointment among fans and players is palpable, and their struggles are evident on the pitch. This situation has now made Sergio Ramos’ return bittersweet. Famous Spanish journalist Juanma Rodriguez, in a conversation with El Chiringuito TV, recently questioned Ramos’ position at Sevilla in a bold statement. He asserted that the veteran defender would unquestionably be a starter for Real Madrid today.

Rodriguez boldly stated, “Today, Ramos would be a Starter at Real Madrid. It breaks my heart seeing him fighting for salvation with Sevilla.” The 37-year-old star has donned the iconic white jersey of Real Madrid for sixteen illustrious seasons, making himself a club legend. However, the statement from Rodriguez begs the question – would Los Blancos’ defensive struggles be alleviated had they retained the services of their former captain? Rodriguez’s assertion ignites fans and experts to ponder upon this hypothetical scenario.
