The Daily Express have Chelsea and Arsenal fans on the edge of their seats here in the Football Transfer Tavern after carrying quotes from one of their most high profile transfer targets.
The rather in-demand central defender in question is Sergio Ramos who appears to be losing patience with La Liga and could well take one of Chelsea, Manchester United or Arsenal up on a deal following previous flirtation.
After witnessing more decisions go against his side, the former Sevilla defender claimed: “The only thing I will say is that, with every passing day, I prefer the English Premier League.”
Add to this the fact that Ramos is also trying to re-negotiate his deal with Real Madrid and we think there could well be some potential for an English transfer to occur sooner rather than later.
Now as our punters note, players often sound off when they are annoyed and looking to put pressure on clubs or indeed officials but we think that Ramos would be perfect for the Premier League.
There is no surprise that both United and Chelsea are keen on the acquiring the goalscoring central defender.
