Sevilla signing Ramos: PSG wanted me to stay

Sergio Ramos admits he rejected a new contract offer from PSG to re-sign for Sevilla.

The Real Madrid great has returned to Sevilla after 18 months away.

He said, "I've always moved for emotions and sensations. When they gave me the opportunity to choose a project is because I really believe in it. It's the first time I've appeared since I left Paris, where I had the opportunity to continue but I thought the cycle was over.

"It wasn't a matter of money or a contract, but a question of philosophy, mentality, feeling. At Sevilla we come together in these values."

Ramos added, "I had the opportunity to return home, do it as a leader with the hope of lifting a title. I wake up every day for this goal, I believe we can do it. We know it is very difficult, but the first thing we can do is believe in it."
