Sergio Ramos rejoined boyhood club Sevilla over the summer and, based on the performance he put in against old club Real Madrid, he's still got it at the age of 37.
The veteran defender came through the youth team ranks at the Seville-based club, before leaving in 2005 to join Real and embark on a hugely successful 16 years at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Ramos won five La Liga titles and four Champions Leagues with Los Blancos, as well as two European Championships and the World Cup with Spain.

The defender departed Real in 2021 and spent the next two seasons in France at Paris Saint-Germain, before returning to his boyhood club this summer.
Yesterday in La Liga, Sevilla took on Real at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium, as Ramos lined up against the club for whom he made almost 700 appearances for.
The hosts looked like they were on course for three points after Real defender David Alaba put through his own net to give Sevilla the lead.

However, Dani Carvajal equalised not long after to ensure that the spoils were shared, with Real remaining at the summit of La Liga following the draw, while Sevilla rose a place in the table to now sit 13th.
Ramos played the entirety of the encounter, picking up a yellow card in the clash.
And judging by a compilation uploaded to social media, Ramos put a performance worthy of those he has put in over the years, putting in blocks, making clearances, going close to scoring with a header, and even getting involved in a spat on the pitch with Antonio Rudiger after Jude Bellingham went to ground after a tussle with the defender.

Fans have taken to social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, to acknowledge that the defender is still up there with the best in the world.
