Mourinho plays down Ramos dispute

The defender was dropped for their game with Manchester City in September, amid reports the two had fallen out again after a publicised spat earlier this year.

“My relationship with my wife is much better than that with Sergio Ramos, without doubt,” said Mourinho. “But my relationship with Sergio Ramos is much better than with people who I don’t know, who I don’t work with and share the day-to-day, with whom I don’t have shared ambitions and shared responsibilities. There is no problem.”
