Conte had reportedly been on the verge of taking over at Madrid, but it was reported in the Spanish Press that Ramos – a leader in Los Blancos’ dressing room – did not approve of the former Juventus, Chelsea and Italy Coach.

Conte had reportedly been on the verge of taking over at Madrid, but it was reported in the Spanish Press that Ramos – a leader in Los Blancos’ dressing room – did not approve of the former Juventus, Chelsea and Italy Coach.

“Sergio Ramos’ words? We must bring manners and respect with us wherever we go,” he said during Monday’s Panchina d’Oro ceremony at Coverciano.

“The same must also come from the players because when that fails, problems begin. Us Coaches have a great work ethic.

“When you come into a new environment, you can’t upset the apple cart. You must enter slowly.”
