Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti has urged Spain to include his former captain Sergio Ramos in their World Cup squad.
Ramos, 36, is in fine form for Paris Saint-Germain in his second season at the club having joined from Madrid in August 2021.

“Without a doubt he should go to the World Cup because of the quality he has,” Ancelotti told reporters after Madrid’s 5-1 Champions League win over Celtic. “He is one of the best centre-backs in the world.”
Ramos endured an injury-hit first season with the French champions but has made 18 appearances across all competitions this campaign.
“Last year was tough because I had a lot of problems, as well as having to adapt to another club after almost a lifetime at Real Madrid,” Ramos said on Tuesday before PSG’s win over Juventus in the Champions League.
