Career

edit

Born in Rotterdam, Ramos has played club football for FC Dordrecht and RKC Waalwijk,[2] before he signed with Roda JC Kerkrade from July 2013.[3]

Despite being born in the Netherlands, Ramos qualifies for Cape Verde through parentage and received his first national team call-up in May 2008.[4] He made his international debut in a friendly match against Luxembourg on 27 May 2008.[5] He was named in the Cape Verde squad for the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations,[6] and spoke about his confidence in the team before the tournament began.[7] In 2014 Ramos sexually assaulted Aron Jóhannsson of AZ Alkmaar during a game.[8][9][10]

After a knee injury curtailed his career, Ramos spent two years as a free agent and spent time at the Team VVCS training camp.[11] He signed for Chabab Rif Al Hoceima of the Botola in Morocco in July 2018.[12]
