Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos scoffs at Salah threat: Just another player

Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos insists there's no concern facing Liverpool ace Mohamed Salah in the Champions League final.

Ramos is set to come face to face with the 43-goal forward in the Champions League final in three weeks' time.

He said: "We have seen what Salah can do this season, but he will just be one of eleven players we face against Liverpool.

"Throughout my career, I have faced the best forward players in the world - many of them who are considered among the greatest ever.

"For me, there is never a fear. A respect, yes, but never a fear."

Ramos also told the Mirror: "We are ready to defend our title for a second time - we won't let it go easily.

"With all respect, maybe at the start of the campaign Liverpool were not the team people thought would be in the final. But they are here because they deserve to be here.

"We know as a team how to play finals - and we will be ready."
