Spain great Sergio Ramos will leave Paris Saint-Germain after their final game of the season on Saturday, both player and club confirmed on Friday.
Ramos' contract, which is due to expire this summer, will not be renewed, making him available on a free.
"Tomorrow is a special day, tomorrow I will say goodbye to another stage of my life, goodbye to PSG," Ramos posted on social media. "I don't know in how many places one can feel at home, but without a doubt PSG, the fans, and Paris were one of them for me.
"Thank you for two special years in which I was able play in every tournament and give my all. I will face new challenges, I will wear other colours, but first, and for the last time: ¡#AllezParis."
🚨 Sergio Ramos has decided to leave Paris Saint-Germain as free agent. He will not sign a new deal. #PSG
"Tomorrow I will say goodbye to another stage of my life — and it's a goodbye to PSG", he announced.
Added PSG chairman and CEO Nasser Al-Khelaifi in a statement: "We would like to express our immense gratitude to Sergio Ramos for the two years he has spent with us.
"Sergio's leadership, team spirit and professionalism, combined with his experience at the highest level, make him a true football legend, and it was an honour to have him in Paris. Everyone at the club wishes him all the best."
Ramos, 37, joined PSG in the summer of 2021 after spending 16 years at Real Madrid, during which he won five LaLiga titles and four Champions League crowns.
A 2010 World Cup winner with Spain, the defender made 57 appearances and won Ligue 1 titles in both of his seasons at PSG but the club failed to to make it past the round of 16 in the Champions League.
Following another season of disappointment in Europe, PSG are expected to undergo a significant transformation this offseason.
Saudi league clubs have already started to approach Sergio Ramos in the recent weeks, while he was still discussing his contract at PSG. ⚪️🇸🇦 #transfers
PSG manager Christophe Galtier confirmed on Thursday that Lionel Messi will also leave when his contract expires this summer, while sources have told ESPN that Neymar and PSG are both open to the Brazilian forward departing.
Ramos also announced his retirement from international duty in February after making 180 appearances for Spain. As well as the World Cup, he also won the European Championship in 2008 and 2012.
PSG, who clinched the Ligue 1 title last weekend, will play their final game of the season at home to Clermont Foot on Saturday.

Sep 17, 2025, 9:16 PM
Full-time | Ajax 0-2 Inter
Last season's beaten finalists start in impressive fashion, Marcus Thuram heading both goals as Inter see off Ajax.
The Dutch side were unfortunate not to score when an excellent Yann Sommer denied Mika Godts' save before the opening goal, but Cristian Chivu's first experience of the UEFA Champions League as a coach produced a confident victory for the visitors.
Luis Enrique can’t have wished for much more. A swashbuckling attacking display that included four goals and a well-deserved clean sheet.
After a league phase campaign fraught with jeopardy last time round, Paris start their quest for a second consecutive Champions League crown in the most consummate of ways.
As for Atalanta, they toiled and stuck to their task, but will now focus on picking up their first points against Club Brugge in two weeks time.
Sep 17, 2025, 9:09 PM
Full time | Liverpool 3-2 Atletico
Liverpool found a way for a hard-fought three points in their league phase opener.
Atleti deserve huge credit for their response to falling 2-0 down. The hosts fashioned the better chances after the interval, with Mohamed Salah striking the post, but Marcos Llorente’s late volley was cancelled out by Virgil Van Dijk right at the end.
Sep 17, 2025, 7:53 PM
Half-time | Liverpool 2-1 Atletico Madrid
Liverpool could hardly have wished for a better start at Anfield after Andy Robertson’s fortuitous opener and Mohamed Salah’s fine effort, but Atleti have done well to gain a foothold and managed to half the deficit through Marcos Llorente on the stroke of half-time.
The hosts will need to hit the ground running in the second half, otherwise it might be back to square one for Arne Slot's team.
Sep 17, 2025, 7:53 PM
Half-time | Ajax 0- 1 Inter
After something of a shaky start, Ajax managed to find their way back into the game.
Ironically, they had the best chance of taking the lead – Yann Sommer saving expertly from Mika Godts – seconds before Marcus Thuram headed the visitors in front at the other end.
John Heitinga’s men will now have to commit more men forward in search of an equaliser, which could play into Inter’s hands.
Sep 17, 2025, 7:53 PM
Half-time | PSG 2-1 Atalanta
A consummate performance befitting of champions. Paris have started their European campaign in much the same vein they finished the last - in total control. In truth, Atalanta had done well to limit the hosts to Marquinhos’ close-range finish, with Marco Carnesecchi largely to thank, but Khvicha Kvaratskhelia eventually added a sumptuous second.
Bradley Barcola’s missed penalty is the only blemish, while Atalanta will be grateful for the half-time break.
Against Atletico Madrid, Andrew Robertson and Mohamed Salah have found the net for Liverpool within first 6 minutes of the match.
Sep 17, 2025, 7:08 PM
Full time: Praha 2-2 Bodo
What a contest we have witnessed! Both teams gave everything, competing all the way. Slavia earned a two-goal advantage thanks to a pair of strikes from Youssoupha Mbodji on his full debut, butBodø/Glimt displayed the character they so often showed during last season's run to the Europa League semi-finals thanks to substitutes Sondre Brunstad Fet and Daniel Bassi. A breathtaking evening, with both clubs showing why they play at this level.
Sep 17, 2025, 6:54 PM
Full time: Olympiacos 0-0 Pafos
Pafos make a memorable debut in the UEFA Champions League, taking a point despite having ten players for more than an hour. Olympiacos applied plenty of pressure around the opposition box but may feel their finishing could have been better, while the Cypriot club managed to disarm them and escape unscathed.
Up next, potentially greater hurdles for both sides: Olympiacos travel to London for their game against Arsenal, while Pafos play host to Bayern Munich.

Full-time: Real Madrid 2-1 Marseille
A pair of penalties from Kylian Mbappé helped Real Madrid turn a deficit into victory in Xabi Alonso's first Champions League game at the helm.
After withstanding early pressure from the hosts, Marseille struck first through Timothy Weah's emphatic finish, but Alonso's side were quickly level when Mbappé converted from the spot following a foul by Geoffrey Kondogbia on Rodrygo.
Although Madrid had Dani Carvajal sent off in the 72nd minute, Mbappé struck again with nine minutes left after Facundo Medina was penalised for handball.
Sep 17, 2025, 5:05 AM
Full time: Juventus 4-4 Dortmund
Borussia Dortmund and Juventus shared the spoils after an eight-goal thriller in Turin thatequalled the record for the highest-scoring Champions League draw.
Khéphren Thuram and Loïs Openda both went close for the hosts in the first half, before Karim Adeyemi’s 52nd-minute finish sparked the encounter into life.
Kenan Yıldız, Felix Nmecha and Dušan Vlahović all scored in a four-minute flurry before Yan Couto's powerful finish made it 3-2 to Dortmund.
The visitors looked to have sealed victory through Ramy Bensebaini's 85th-minute penalty, but Juventus rescued a draw in added time thanks to Dušan Vlahović's finish and a Lloyd Kelly header.
Sep 17, 2025, 4:58 AM
Full time: Benfica 2-3 Qarabag
Qarabağ claim a historic win here in Lisbon – and few can argue with the result. Benfica were 2-0 up after 16 minutes, but after Leandro Andrade’s goal, the Azerbaijan champions grew in confidence and made the most of their momentum to level and ultimately win it in the closing stages. Welcome back, Champions League!
Sep 16, 2025, 6:51 PM
Full time: PSV 1-3 USG
What an excellent performance by Sébastien Pocognoli’s men. Throughout the match they seemed able to absorb any pressure, remain calm when in possession, and now and again turn up the heat to inflict damage on the home side.
Great displays all round, with Anouar Ait El Hadj and Christian Burgess particularly impressive. An amazing start to the club’s UEFA Champions League career.
Sep 16, 2025, 6:48 PM
Full time | Athletic 0-2 Arsenal
Substitutes Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard strike to give Arsenal a winning start in a tight contest in Bilbao, where Athletic Club performed admirably on their much-anticipated return to the competition.
Sep 16, 2025, 5:39 PM
Half-time | Athletic 0-0 Arsenal
Arsenal have failed to score in Spain in the first half.
Mikel Arteta's men looked good but not sharp enough. Meantime Athletic have done well to defend and attack on the chances they got.
Important 45 minutes to come.

Dembele with a whipping, curling cross from the right, and Ramos was right in the middle to make everything level.
Chevalier would be disappointed with his, but Romero wins the space and header to extend the lead.
From a free-kick again, Romero was unmarked and had a free header at the far post. Romero's header bounced on the ground first, which made it difficult for Chevalier to make the save. But he should have done better there.

The Paris newcomer tips the shot from distance over the crossbar! Richarlison starts the move by winning possession, turning sharply and sending Mohammed Kudus away beyond the halfway line, the winger returning the pass to the forward in the right channel.
The No9 shifts to his right and fires in a fierce right-footed effort, taking a slight deflection before Lucas Chevalier uses his right palm to divert the ball behind. Tottenham's coaching staff show their appreciation.

Whenever a new transfer window arrives, with more money coming into the game, we see more spending and expensive buys from clubs around the world. However, along with experienced and proven footballers, football clubs always tend to buy new, exciting teenage footballers, even before they become stars.
Today, in this article, we will list the 20 most expensive teenagers in football transfer history.
20 Most expensive teenagers in football transfer history
Please note that the fee is based on Transfermarkt's data and is accurate as of August 7, 2025.
20. Javier Saviola – River Plate to FC Barcelona – 2001 – €35.90m (Age 19)
Image | FC Barcelona
Javier Saviola's transfer to FC Barcelona from River Plate was the record fee for any teenager till it was later broken by Wayne Rooney.
