Real Madrid fear they are losing control of the Sergio Ramos transfer wrangle despite turning down a £35million bid from Manchester United for the Spain defender.
It is understood that Real president Florentino Perez took the unusual step of calling Ramos personally to reassure him that his contract dispute will be resolved after he returns from a holiday in America and before Rafa Benitez’s squad depart for a pre-season tour of Australia and China on July 11.
But Madrid are increasingly concerned that the player has made up his mind to leave the Bernabeu after 10 years and may ultimately have to be sold. They will try to put United off by slapping a £65m price tag on Ramos after rejecting the opening offer.

There is still a suspicion that the 29-year-old is using the situation to force a better deal out of his club, but United are determined to pursue their interest.
They are keen to keep the Ramos discussions separate to any approach from Real for David de Gea and will demand up to £35m – a world record for a goalkeeper – to let the 24-year-old go as both sides dig their heels in.
Old Trafford officials are not concerned by the fact the Spaniard only has a year left on his contract and can leave for nothing next summer.

The Spaniard wants his future resolved by the time he returns on July 10 for Real’s pre-season training tour

United are still to receive a bid from Madrid for David de Gea but are determined to strike a decent deal
They believe the value of keeping De Gea for another year far outweighs any bid below the £32.6m Juventus paid Parma for Gianluigi Buffon in 2001.
And they are looking for a fee of around £35m before they will entertain the idea of allowing the former Atletico Madrid man to leave.
De Gea joined the club for £17.8m in 2011 and has been heavily linked with a return to his home city.
