After 16 seasons, 671 games, 101 goals, five league titles and four European Cups, Sergio Ramos is set to leave Real Madrid. Where he goes from here -- the rumour mill has him turning up in the Premier League -- will matter not a jot back in Spain, the country which he conquered both domestically and on the international stage.
He has had a remarkable career and will rightfully go down as one of the best to defenders the game has ever seen and as tribute, EA Sports have awarded him a special End of an Era card in FIFA 21 -- two in fact -- which can be earned by completing a series of Squad Building Challenges.
