Sergio Ramos on more goals than 6 of Europe's top strikers
Real Madrid's captain has scored 10 goals for his club and four goals for Spain. Eight of those have come from the penalty spot, the other six were headers.
"Sergio Ramos isn't a centre-back, he's whatever the kind of player he wants to be", Luis Enrique said during the half-time interval of Espanyol's league meeting with Real Madrid - after witnessing the Madrid captain find the net once again. Ramos' tally stands at 14 goals. Cristiano Ronaldo's departure has given Ramos free rein to satisfy his goal-scoring appetite.
