Chelsea never contacted me - Ramos
by Laurent Picard, 09 May 2008

Ramos: Committed for real

Sergio Ramos has been linked to a £20 million bid from Chelsea, but the versatile defender has said he plans to stay at Real Madrid for the remainder of his career.

The former Sevilla wonderkid has become one of the best right backs and centre backs in the world.

The 22-year-old has emerged as a transfer target for Roman Abramovich’s Blues, but the Primera Liga double champion has committed himself to Los Merengues and revealed he plans to stay at El Santiago Bernabeu for life.

“Nobody has told me anything about it,” Ramos told AS, when asked about Chelsea’s reported approach.

“The fact that great clubs are interested makes me proud, but I am very settled because I am only thinking of El Madrid and of retiring here."

Real chairman Ramon Calderon declared on Thursday that the only chance for his key player to move on was for him to express his intention to leave the club.

“PS to all man u fans ronaldo is by far the best player in the world but you must feel uncomfortable knowing of the pressure he's getting from madrid? we dont like seeing cesc's name mentioned constantly its only a matter of time although cesc seems more loyal then ronaldo i feel? cesc wouldn't say we don't know what'll happen he says i love arsenal and i'm staying you must feel a sense of maybe it could be this year? henry left was this the end of the world? absolutely not??”
