- Ramos mocked by Ryanair after debut single release
- Ex-Real Madrid star responds with witty comeback
- Song ‘Cibeles’ sparks debate and social media buzz
Ramos’ first single immediately sparked debate across Spain, with supporters and media questioning his unexpected move into music. Ryanair, known for its cheeky online persona, responded to the song’s promotion. The post then invited the former Real Madrid captain to clapback at the Irish airline, who are known for their cost-cotting measures.
Reposting Ramos’ song announcement, Ryanair joked: “Petition to ban this song on our planes.”
Ramos was quick to hit back with a very witty reply, as he said: “You’ve put speakers in your planes now? I’ll let you use mine if you need it.”
The exchange was met with viral traction online, as both sides leaned into the banter.
Ramos has never shied away from controversy or attention, and his entry into music adds another chapter to his eventful career. The former Sevilla and Real Madrid star has previously hinted at ambitions beyond football, even joking about Grammy dreams on Spanish TV. His debut track, however, has largely been met with scepticism and amusement rather than acclaim.
The Spaniard is expected to continue promoting ‘Cibeles’ with more appearances and interviews, regardless of the criticism. Ryanair are unlikely to stop poking fun, given their reputation for playful social media antics. For Ramos, though, the focus will be on proving he can succeed off the pitch as confidently as he once did on it.
