The Europa League list was announced and Real Madrid captain Ramos was unexpectedly not among them, news that quickly ignited discussion among fans.
In the face of controversy, Ramos took to social media to speak out. He confessed, "In recent months I have not been in the best of shape, I have had a different experience this season, and now we have the Europa League. I've been training hard every day, giving my body and mind my all, hoping to be in top form for Real Madrid and the national team. However, life sometimes doesn't go as planned."
"It pains me deeply to not be able to contribute to the team and to be able to defend the Spanish team. But perhaps this time, the best option is to rest and recover fully in order to be back to my best next season. It is heartbreaking not to be able to represent your country, but honesty and sincerity are necessary."
"I wish my teammates all the best and hope that we will show superb strength in the Europa League. I will be cheering you on from home as part of the team. To everyone, long live Spain and go Real Madrid!"
