Ahead of the FIFA Club World Cup, the name Sergio Ramos has disappeared from many people's minds. Since leaving Sevilla last summer, the famous central defender has not appeared much in the media.

Sergio Ramos moved to Monterrey in February this year quietly, without much attention. However, in the first match of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, the 39-year-old center-back made everyone talk about him with a header against Inter Milan.
In subsequent matches against River Plate and Urawa Reds, Sergio Ramos continued to impress as Monterrey's defensive leader.
In a tournament where veterans like Di Maria and Thiago Silva have made a strong impression, Sergio Ramos has also become a shining star. Monterrey is not strong but they have a very good spirit. Partly thanks to the "old man" Sergio Ramos who always knows how to inspire the whole team.

Monterrey will of course have to play with their lives on the line if they want to stop Dortmund. The Ruhr side have been playing quite well in the group stage under new coach Niko Kovac. Notably, five of Dortmund's goals in the group stage were scored by five different players, showing the diversity the Croatian coach is aiming for.
In particular, coach Niko Kovac's system has a very fierce and disciplined pressing style. That makes Dortmund extremely uncomfortable. However, they may face a big challenge with Monterrey's "concrete" style of play led by Sergio Ramos.
