Sergio Ramos talks about his affection for Real Madrid

Ramos talked about this match-up to Spanish journalist, Sergio Quirante. He reported that Ramos still has a lot of affection for Madrid, but he’ll do everything to make sure PSG wins. While Ramos’ return to the Bernabeu will be special, it won’t be at the detriment of his club.

Fate is unpredictable. I wish we had gotten another team. I have a lot of affection for Madrid and that will not change anything. I will do everything possible for my team to win. It will be special returning to the Bernabéu,” Ramos said.

Ramos is a proven winner and has won trophies galore for Madrid. Moreover, he wants to do the same for PSG, and, given his mentality, he won’t back down from a fight, even if it means fighting his own old teammates.
