Getafe president Ángel Torres confirmed the club is in contact over a potential move for Sergio Ramos but stated signing the 40-year-old defender is not an immediate priority. Torres revealed the discussions during an appearance on Radio Nacional de España's 'Tablero Deportivo' programme, addressing the situation of the veteran centre-back who is currently a free agent. The side sits 15th in the table with 8 points from eight games, having recorded two wins, two draws and four losses.
"Ha estado hablando conmigo su agente, su hermano," Torres said, referring to Ramos' brother and representative, René. The president clarified, however, that the squad already has six central defenders and that manager José Bordalás had prioritised signing wingers. "We have six centre-backs. It's not a position we need right now... The boss wanted wide players," he stated. Torres left the door open for the future, noting Ramos is "on the list of future prospects" and did not rule out a move in the upcoming winter transfer window.
A potential deal would see Ramos reunite with former Real Madrid teammate Dani Carvajal, who signed for Getafe until June 2027. Ramos last played an official match on 6 December 2025 for Liga MX side Monterrey, where he made over 30 appearances and scored eight goals. Any move is considered as Getafe look to improve their standing, currently 15th in La Liga with 8 points from eight games, a full 19 points behind leaders Barcelona.
Bordalás's side enter the international break following a 1-1 draw with Universitatea Craiova, with Nemanja Gudelj scoring in the 81st minute after A. Al Hamlawi had opened the scoring. Their form over the last five matches reads one win, two draws and two defeats, a sequence that includes the 3-0 loss to Barcelona on 10 October and a 1-0 win over Malaga on 20 September. Next up is a significant Madrid derby at home to 14th-placed Rayo Vallecano this Saturday 19 October, a key clash between 15th and 14th place.
Beyond Ramos, the Getafe board is working on other targets. Torres indicated that negotiations to sign winger Jadon Sancho and midfielder Dani Parejo could be confirmed next week. The club aims to bolster an attack that has managed only four league goals so far this season, while conceding ten.
