Ramos to leave Sevilla after brief return
Sergio Ramos is leaving Sevilla after a one-year return to the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, the club confirmed.
Ramos came through Sevilla's youth system before joining Real Madrid for €27million as a 19 year-old in 2005, going on to win LaLiga on five occasions and the Champions League four times with Los Blancos.
After an injury-hit stint with Paris Saint-Germain, Ramos returned to his boyhood club as a free agent last September, 18 years on from his initial departure.
Ramos played 28 times in LaLiga last season, scoring three goals and contributing to seven clean sheets as Sevilla pulled away from the relegation zone to end a turbulent season in 14th.
A club statement confirmed Ramos was to depart and said he would speak at a farewell news conference on Wednesday.
"The club wishes to thank Sergio for the commitment, leadership and dedication that he has demonstrated this season, and wishes him the best for future," Sevilla said.
The former Spain international is not thought likely to call time on his glittering career just yet, with MLS expansion team San Diego FC having been linked with a move.
