Sergio Ramos Leaves Door Open To Chelsea Move


According to Spanish daily 'Sport', Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos has refused to discount a move to Chelsea.

The newspaper claims that the Blues are willing to offer up to an enormous 70 million euros to the club of former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho to secure the services of the attacking right-back. Chelsea would also offer the 24-year-old a five-year contract worth 10 million euros annually.

Apparently, Real Madrid do not want to see Ramos leave, he made 40 appearances for the La Liga runners-up last campaign, scoring four goals and providing four assists. Ramos has a contract with Real worth 2.5 million euros a season until 2012/2013.

However, Real Madrid have yet to persuade Ramos to sign an extension and so the door has been left open for him to consider the possibility of a move to Stamford Bridge. 'Sport' suggests that Ramos may be interested in a move to Chelsea, or else he may be using it as a tactic to improve his bargaining position with Real.

Ramos himself appears to be playing his cards close to his chest, telling 'Sport', "I do not know where I will finish my career, because football takes many turns."

Ramos is preparing to make his World Cup debut for Spain against Switzerland.
