A lucrative approach from Saudi Arabia was knocked back, while claims that Ramos also turned down the chance to pen a £73,000-a-week deal at Old Trafford.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
Ramos is back where it all began for him, with 50 appearances taken in for Sevilla between 2003 and 2006 – before he departed for an iconic stint at Santiago Bernabeu. He has been linked with United on several occasions down the years, but they have never been able to put an agreement in place.
