AS quoted Sergio Ramos' brother and agent Rene Ramos, via Onda Cero. The agent claimed that Sergio Ramos wishes to play for Real Madrid as long as he can. He asserted that playing at the refurbished Bernabeu will be the ideal farewell for the 34-year-old skipper. Renovation work at the Bernabeu has already begun, with the proposed construction based on modern scientific lines.

The redevelopment work commenced with an investment of €572 million ($546 million). However, it will not see any further increase in the seating capacity of the stadium. In fact, the seating capacity will be reduced by a single seat. On the other hand, reports claim that the club's board has planned venue investment meticulously to avoid an impact on routine activities.
