Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos has revealed his desire to remain at the Bernabeu for the rest of his career.
The 24-year-old full-back, part of Spain’s World Cup-winning squad last summer, is currently in talks with Madrid over a new contract until 2017.
And Ramos told FIFA’s official website: “I've been here for seven years and I've absorbed the values of this great club by playing alongside legends like Zizou (Zinedine Zidane) and Raul.
“Now I'm sharing the captaincy with Iker Casillas and I have to set an example and help the newer players, who don't know the club so well.
“As for the future, you can never say what's going to happen in football, although I am happy here.
“I'm very grateful to Sevilla and Madrid for having moulded me as a player and a person.
“And what more can I ask for than to be with the best club in the world, in a fantastic city and with my family close by?
“I love it here and if they offer to renew my contract for life, I'd jump at the chance.”
