Sergio Ramos has just become a free agent, and Arsenal fans are keen for Andrea Berta to make a move to sign him.

Arsenal have suffered an injury crisis in defence this season, having now lost Gabriel Magalhaes, William Saliba and Cristhian Mosquera.

Mosquera is set to be sidelined for several weeks with a new issue he picked up, leaving the Gunners with Piero Hincapie and Jurrien Timber having to form a makeshift partnership.

Following the team’s defeat at Aston Villa, Arsenal fans have called for Andrea Berta to move for Ramos, who has just become a free agent.

Arsenal fans call for Sergio Ramos to be signed

Arsenal fans have taken to social media to call for Sergio Ramos to be signed following the team’s injury crisis.

Ramos has just left Mexican club Monterrey after announcing that he has now played his final game; however, he is keen to keep playing.

The 39-year-old is now on the free agent market and is ready to evaluate the offers that he receives from clubs.

Arsenal have lost Gabriel for around two months with the Brazilian having picked up a groin issue. Saliba and Mosquera have since joined him on the injury table.

Following Ramos becoming a free agent, one fan said on X: “Hear me out, Arsenal… Pay-as-you-play contract…”

Another added: “Señor Ramos, one last dance in North London at Emirates?”

“I’m being so serious, I’d get him in for this season,” claimed another fan.

A fourth stated: “He’s exactly what we need right now, Arsenal!”

Meanwhile, another fan joked: “Hincapie and Ramos for the festive season? Cards will be involved!”

Finally, one more Arsenal fan said: “Bring him. We need that winner’s mentality to be added to this squad.

It feels like Ramos playing in the Premier League could be a recipe for disaster, but having such a player in the dressing room could actually be huge for Mikel Arteta’s squad.

William Saliba is a massive fan of Sergio Ramos

One player who would love Ramos at Arsenal is Saliba, who named the legendary Spaniard as the best defender of all time.

The French international faced him and Sevilla back in 2023, with the Gunners winning 2-0 and 1-2 in the Champions League.

Would a prime Sergio Ramos have started in Arsenal’s 2003/04 Invincibles team ahead of Sol Campbell or Kolo Toure?

Back in March, Saliba told Mail Sport: “I wanted his shirt. But Gabriel also wanted his shirt. So I gave it to Gabriel because he wanted his shirt so badly. So I gave it to Gabriel. But yes, it’s the only thing that I spoke with him.

“Of course, for me, he’s the best in history. And there are some others, like Van Dijk, for me, who is unbelievable. Gabriel. There are some others as well.”
