Club career

Born in Málaga, Andalusia, Ramos was a product of hometown Málaga CF's youth ranks. He made his first-team (and La Liga) debut at only 17 on 4 October 2009, playing almost the entire second half of the 1–1 draw away against Xerez CD.[1] He spent his first professional season, however, almost exclusively with the B-side, only appearing two more times in the league.

In December 2010, shortly after the arrival of manager Manuel Pellegrini, Ramos was deemed surplus to requirements alongside five other players.[2] On 5 January 2011, he was sent on loan to CD Leganés in the third division until the end of the campaign.[3]

On 11 July 2011, Ramos signed for Villarreal CF, with Málaga still having a buyback option for the player.[4] After starting with the C-team, he was soon promoted to the reserves in the second level, making his debut – as a starter – on 3 February 2012 in a 0−0 home draw against FC Barcelona B.[5]

Ramos scored his first goal for Villarreal B on 3 March 2012, in a 4−3 home win over CD Alcoyano.[6] He made his official debut for the main squad on 14 December of the following year, starting in a 1−2 loss at FC Barcelona.[7]

On 9 July 2014, Ramos moved to Albacete Balompié, newly promoted to the second tier.[8] On 13 July 2016, after the club's relegation, he signed for Córdoba CF.[9]

On 30 August 2018, Ramos moved to fellow second division side Cádiz CF on a one-year contract, with Córdoba holding a buy-back clause.[10] In May 2019, he agreed to a new two-year deal at the former.[11]

International career

Ramos represented Spain's under-17 team in the 2009 FIFA World Cup played in Nigeria, helping the nation to the third place.[12] On 17 August 2010, he was selected by the under-19s for the SBS International Cup in Japan.[13]
