Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos has shrugged off reports suggesting that Premier League champions Chelsea are interested in signing him, and the Spain international has made it clear that he's very happy at Santiago Bernabeu.
Ramos commented to Fifa.com on his current situation in the Spanish capital: "I know I need to earn a few more stripes and I’m more than happy to accept that challenge. I’ve been here for seven years and I’ve absorbed the values of this great club by playing alongside legends like 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."
Former Sevilla stopper Ramos added that he'd be more than happy to stay at the club for the remainder of his career.
He remarked: "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."
