With talks for a new contract for Ramos underway in the Spanish capital, Florentino Perez could have encountered an unexpected problem.

Ramos' brother and representative has been made aware of Bayern's interest. According to Vox Populi, contact was made during the international break as talks continue between Ramos and Madrid over new terms, although his current deal does run until 2017.

Xabi Alonso took the same route last summer, accepting Pep Guardiola's offer to move to Germany and the Catalan coach is now looking for a new central defender.

He knows Ramos' style well and is interested in signing him, if possible.

The situation with the Andalusian defender, though, is different to that which Alonso was in. Ramos wants to continue at the Bernabeu but he wants a galactico's contract to commit -- he believes his performances merit that.

Perez is not keen to pay so much money, with Ramos wanting as much as Gareth Bale is paid, which is around €11million net a season.

At the moment, Los Blancos aren't anywhere near that number and would prefer not to go above €8million. Bayern's interst could force them a little higher.
