Ramos left the Andalucian club 18 years when he departed for Real Madrid. The 37-year-old defender, who left Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer, has inked a one-year contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a statement, Ramos expressed his delight at rejoining Sevilla, stating, &#8220;It&#8217;s a very special day; returning home is always an incredible joy. I am happy to be back and eager to contribute as soon as possible, which is the most important thing.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ramos is celebrated for his extensive achievements in the world of football. A world class defender, he won a FIFA World Cup and two UEFA European Championships with the Spanish national team, accumulating a record-breaking 180 caps over his illustrious 16-year international career. Additionally, he clinched four UEFA Champions League titles with Real Madrid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ramos&#8217; roots trace back to the outskirts of Seville, where he first joined Sevilla&#8217;s youth academy at the tender age of seven. He subsequently made 50 appearances in various competitions for Sevilla before making his high-profile move to Real Madrid in 2005.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During his 16-year tenure in the Spanish capital, Ramos amassed 671 appearances for Los Blancos and was a pivotal figure in the team&#8217;s success, securing 22 trophies, including five La Liga titles to complement his European triumphs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the expiration of his contract with Real Madrid in 2021, Sergio Ramos embarked on a new chapter by joining Paris Saint-Germain, where he spent two seasons and achieved back-to-back league titles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"betting\">Betting Implications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ramos&#8217; return to Sevilla holds sentimental value, marking his reunion with the club where his footballing journey commenced. His experience, leadership, and defensive prowess are expected to make a significant impact as he aims to contribute to Sevilla&#8217;s resurgence, especially as the club currently finds itself at the bottom of La Liga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, given Ramos\u2019 age, bettors looking to back Sevilla in domestic matches or in Europe will need to monitor his impact and assess whether, at 37-years-old he can still cope with the demands of top level football.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ramos has worked very hard over the summer to keep in shape and he clearly has the quality he suffered a few injuries during his time in Paris, however, to be fair, most of those occurred in his first season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Spain international Sergio Ramos has made a return to his childhood club, Sevilla.
