Real Madrid and Spain legend Sergio Ramos has landed in Seville to take a decisive step toward purchasing a controlling stake in Sevilla FC, the most successful club in UEFA Europa League history.
Accompanied by his brother, René Ramos, and renowned lawyer Julio Senn a former director at Real Madrid the veteran defender is reportedly pushing for a resolution to his ambitious takeover bid. Ramos is backed by an influential group of international investors determined to finalize the deal as quickly as possible.
A Record-Breaking Offer According to investigations by COPE, Ramos has already placed a staggering €400 million offer on the table to acquire the Andalusian club. This follows a previous attempt that received no concrete response from the current Sevilla board.
Despite the club’s “brand” being valued at approximately €160m–€190m by Brand Finance in 2025, Ramos’ total offer reflects the full enterprise value and the long-term potential of the fourth-largest club in Spanish football.
Player or President? Ramos’ Future Remains Uncertain While his off-field business moves dominate the headlines, Sergio Ramos, now 39, has not yet officially retired. Despite the ongoing European transfer window, the defender remains a free agent after recently rejecting an offer from Paris FC.
Sources close to the player suggest he is waiting for a project that truly excites him. If the takeover of Sevilla the club where he was discovered succeeds, it remains to be seen whether Ramos will take a role in the boardroom or potentially suit up for one last dance on the pitch at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán.
