He is said to be involved with 'takeover talks'

Spanish football legend Sergio Ramos is "in talks to help buy" one of Europe's biggest clubs, according to the Spanish press.

The 39-year-old former Real Madrid captain, and PSG star, is currently without a team after leaving Mexican outfit Monterrey, and now looks set to move into the world of football ownership.

The four-time Champions League-winning defender is reportedly keen to return to one of his former teams as an investor.

Ramos is said to be part of negotiations with La Liga side Sevilla, a club that he played for as recently as 2024.

According to a second Spanish outlet, Diario AS, Ramos has “initiated preliminary contacts” to learn about becoming an investor, as a minority shareholder.

The Andalusian side were reportedly negotiating with American investors, Antonio Lappi and Fede Quintero, over a full takeover, but talks have stalled over the size of their offer.

This in turn opened the door to alternative investors to enter talks, including a consortium that includes Ramos.

Sergio Ramos is a well regarded figure at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium, having played 87 games for the club over two spells.

It now remains to be seen how the bid progresses.
