Sergio Ramos: "We want to live in a free and democratic country"
Ramos came out with a surprising quote on Thursday
He also said his relationship with Pique is very good
Sergio Ramos turned into an unlikely backer for Catalonia when he appeared to criticise the way Spain handled the referendum regarding independence on October 1.
"As a Spaniard, I don't like the image Spain has shown to the world," saidRamos. "I hope it's solved as soon as possible and we can live in a free and democratic country."
Real Madrid's Ramos also said he has a good relationship with Barcelona defender Gerard Pique. He explained: "We are in the same boat. Geri already said it, we have a very good relationship, despite our characters and our way of feeling."
