Spain will face Germany in the quarterfinals of Euro 2024, and Sergio Ramos, the former Real Madrid, PSG and Sevilla defender, has been a key player in the Iberian team’s successes over the past decade.
Sergio Ramos is an icon of Spanish football. His career with the national team is full of achievements, in addition to two European Championships (2008 and 2012) and a World Cup (2010), writing his name in the history books of Spanish football.
Ramos continues to have a good level, despite being 38 years old. Fans expected this to be his last big chance to defend the national team’s jersey, but it won’t.
