Some people have drawn comparisons between the way in which Sergio Ramos and Iker Casillas, Real Madrid's last two captains, departed the club, but Florentino Perez views the situations as being very different.
The Real Madrid president made clear that Los Blancos made Ramos an offer to extend his contract, with a deadline included, but that the defender did not accept.
"I had a tough time at Sergio Ramos' farewell [event]. I love Sergio Ramos like a son," Florentino Perez said on El Transistor.
"I wasn't with him at the [farewell] press conference because I've never been to a press conference with any player.
"I have an adoration for Sergio Ramos, and I'm not going to talk about the bickering. He has been a legend at Real Madrid and that's what we Real Madrid fans are left with.
"We offered him a contract, we gave him a deadline and he didn't accept it. He was thinking about other things and life goes on.
"He will do very well for sure, and this is his home. I would be delighted if Sergio Ramos went to a club that offered him what we have not been able to offer him."
Regarding Casillas' departure from Real Madrid back in 2015, Florentino Perez seemed to pass some of the blame onto the goalkeeper, who is now back working for Real Madrid Foundation as assistant to the general director.
"Casillas didn't leave in a good way. I called him at night, I proposed a farewell event," Florentino Perez revealed.
"What happened is that, because of nerves, maybe the day before he hadn't been at his best. Everyone remembers him as what he was: one of the greats, a legend.
"It was a childish thing, and he understood that the people here have to say farewell in a good manner."

It's difficult. Both of the parties have opinion and logic. Perez feels Ramos might not add more value post a year. So he made this call. He could be right or wrong. But that guy thinks for RM which we all agree

if you want him to stay, you should give him more years, and already you sign Alaba to replace him while Ramos can defend, can score, can motivate players. Perez you are the problem of real Madrid. I advise you to resign if not many people begin to hate you, and I'm among those people because you are sending important to out of the club. currently real Madrid don't have finisher and you are there making noise pricing this one today and another one tomorrow. pls resign
alaba was bought coz ramos didnt sign the contract...now after alaba was signed ramos wants to agree with a contract then its nt the club fault...i agree ramos deserves the contract no matter what bt u cant blame madrid for it coz even if its football its a business...and they dnt wanna be in loss

Ramos is a beast He’s the best defender I’ve ever opportune to watch.. He’s great in all aspects A great leader and a goal scorer🤩🤍 He deserved world best player but unfortunately he’s playing in era of messi and Ronaldo.. He’s far better than van dirk💯💯 So consist and won everything a play will ever dreamed of 🏆
