Transfer Balls: Manchester United winners in Sergio Ramos poll
Transfer Balls: a look at today’s reporting on Real Madrid’s Sergio Ramos, apparently wanted by Manchester United.
Daily Express: “Real Madrid fans turn on Sergio Ramos and want him sold to Man United this summer”
Why do Real Madrid fans wants Ramos sold to Manchester United instead of, say, to a team they won’t face in the Champions’ League, like Spurs?
