Real Madrid centre-back Sergio Ramos was baptised on Monday ahead of his summer wedding with Pilar Rubio, with it being impossible to get married in a Catholic church unless you have been baptised.

The wedding between the 33-year-old and Rubio, a reporter and TV presenter, will take place on June 15 at the Seville Cathedral.

Ramos was baptised at the Parish Church of Nuestra Senora de La Moraleja in Madrid at 21:30 CET on Monday, according to Confidencial Digital.

The ceremony was conducted in the strictest privacy and, by having it so late, the parish had already been closed to the public and, after, Ramos was able to celebrate with his family.
