Reports claim club legend could rejoin on free transfer"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Real Madrid could be on the verge of witnessing one of the most emotional homecomings in recent football history. According to reports emerging from Defensa Central, club legend Sergio Ramos is being strongly linked with a sensational return to the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u once his contract with Monterrey expires this December.<\/p>\n<p>Ramos, who left Real Madrid in 2021 after a trophy-laden 16-year spell, is reportedly open to the idea of wearing the famous white shirt again if the opportunity presents itself. At 39, the Spanish defender remains in remarkable physical condition and continues to deliver commanding performances in Mexico. His leadership, experience, and familiarity with the club all add fuel to the growing speculation surrounding a potential comeback.<\/p>\n<p>For Xabi Alonso\u2019s side, the timing of the rumour is interesting. Real Madrid have endured a challenging period in central defence, with injuries and inconsistent form forcing the Italian coach to rotate heavily at the back.<\/p>\n<p>With the squad lacking depth in the centre-back position, a short-term, low-cost signing could be an ideal solution, especially one who already understands the club\u2019s culture, expectations, and tactical demands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Real Madrid could be on the verge of witnessing one of the most emotional homecomings in recent football history.
