Sergio Ramos' parting shot at Real Madrid

“I never wanted to leave Real Madrid, always wanted to continue here. The club offered me one year, with a drop in salary.
"I wanted two years, for me and my family. Then I was told that the offer from the club was no longer there, time had run out, and I had not realised. I decided to accept the offer, I thought was still on the table, but they said it was by now too late.
"I was never told that there was an expiry date to the offer. I thought it was just part of the negotiation - as always has happened over 16 years. But then I was told time had run out.

Meanwhile, in spite of interests from Barcelona and his former club Sevilla, Ramos has ruled out a move to any of the clubs which gives Chelsea and the Manchester clubs a chance to sign him.
