Sergio Ramos has said that he has developed a cordial relationship with Lionel Messi since joining PSG. The Spaniard and Messi joined the Parisians this summer. Ramos, a former Real Madrid captain, spent his entire career like seven-time Ballon d'Or winner Messi in Spain.

Messi rose through the ranks at Barcelona, and soon caught fire. Ramos and Real Madrid were often at the receiving end of Messi's brilliance. The 34-year-old regularly clashed with Ramos in umpteen El Clasicos.

However, things changed over the summer for both players. Messi had to leave his abode in the blink of an eye. Ramos also bid a tearful farewell to the club he loved. The two one-time arch-rivals were eventually united in Paris, with PSG convincing both players to move to the Parc des Princes.

Sergio Ramos has now opened up on sharing a dressing room with Lionel Messi. Speaking at a press conference, as relayed by PSG Talk, the Spaniard said that his relationship with Messi is based on mutual respect and admiration.

"Now we share a dressing room, and we have a very good relationship. We are trying to help PSG win. The objective is the Champions League, and both Messi and I will be able to contribute something. The relationship is one of admiration and respect on both sides," said Ramos.
