Real Madrid Celebrates 500 games via Facebook Live

Real Madrid's strongest possible XI will face Napoli

After completing 500 games with Real Madrid Sergio Ramos is a happy man, and to celebrate the milestone the defender took to Facebook Live to answer questions and interact with his audience, which included the revelation that he hasn't ruled out changing his shirt number to 93.

Hundreds of thousands of supporters were online to view his answers.

"I don't know which goal is my favourite," he began.

"I have some good ones but they are like my children, I'm not sure I can pick just one.

"Maybe the equaliser in the Champions League final because it took us a lot to win and scoring in the last minute is special."

A change of short number was perhaps the biggest surprise.

"The '4' has given me a lot of luck and has accompanied me throughout my career with Real," he continued.

"But don't think that I haven't considered changing it for 93."

Asked by one supporter what it meant to wear the shirt, Ramos was unequivocal.

"We have to be aware of what the club badge entails," he said.

"We have to represent it and give the maximum, put sweat on the shirt to the very end."

Clearly he isn't ready to hang up his boots just yet.

"I still have years here as a player and I enjoy every day," he noted.

On reaching 500 matches, a mark very few manage, Real's captain was grateful.

"I am very proud of it and I did not expect it," he said.

"Many years ago I did not imagine that I could achieve such an important figure.

"I can enjoy it today but I want to continue to represent the best team in the world."

Finally he was asked what he would've done if he wasn't a footballer.

"If I had not been a footballer I would have dedicated myself to another sport," Ramos concluded.

"Tennis has always attracted my attention so I would've been fighting with Nadal."
