Not many captains would go down as influential as Ramos has been for Real Madrid.
The Spaniard guided Los Blancos to their fifth La Liga triumph this season and his contribution to it all must be given much praise.
Ramos chipped in with 11 goals for Real Madrid this season. Very impressive numbers for a defender. In fact, that tally is a record and no defender in the past 20 years has managed that in a league season.
The Spaniard guided Los Blancos to their fifth La Liga triumph and his contribution to it all must be given much praise.
The 34-year-old has now won 22 trophies in total for Real Madrid and there can be no doubt about the Spaniard’s abilities.
Modric has grown to be good friends with Ramos since he joined Los Blancos in 2012. He explains their friendship on and off the pitch while adding that his teammate is the best defender in the world. Liverpool fans might not like that statement for sure.
“My brother Sergio is a phenomenon,” Modric told Sportske Novosti. “And I’m not just saying that because in eight years we’ve created a really special relationship, we hang out as families, go on holiday together, or because we’ve had fantastic footballing experiences and successes together.
“Ramos is a 34-year-old rock, a top-level competitor, and when you watch him working on himself, it’s clear how dedicated he is and how hungry he is for success. He’s a team leader and the best defender in the world.”
