Sergio Ramos’ 16-year stay at Real Madrid could be coming to an end this summer, with club and player yet to reach an agreement over a new contract, according to Marca.

The centre-back joined Real from Sevilla in 2005 and has gone on to make 668 appearances for the club in all competitions, scoring an incredible 100 goals.

Ramos’ contributions to five title wins and four Champions League successes have made him a legend at the Bernabeu, but his future remains unresolved as contract talks drag on.

Zinedine Zidane’s side are currently seven points behind local rivals Atletico Madrid, having played two games more than them.

Ramos’ extended absence, the longest of a remarkably injury-free career, therefore comes at an unfortunate time for both player and club.

Despite his advancing years, Ramos remains a key player for club and country, having overtaken former teammate Iker Casillas as Spain’s most-capped player.
