It is said that Ramos's departure from the team was unexpected because the Spanish media has uploaded optimistic news about his contract extension in recent days. Including "Marca" and "Ass" have said that Real Madrid will re-give Ramos a contract extension, and Ramos is also inclined to stay in the team. On Friday, Real Madrid president Florentino and Ramos also held a meeting, leaving with a smile on their faces, and the media stage was that the contract extension was in good shape.
However, it now seems that the two sides did not negotiate at that time, and the last renewal negotiations were concluded.
However, judging from the farewell ceremony held by Real Madrid for Ramos, the two sides still maintained respect, which was a friendly breakup.
