AS: Ramsey terminated contract with Cougars after falling into deep depression after his dog went missing

On November 1, "AS" reported that the 34-year-old Welsh midfielder Ramsey terminated his contract with the Mexican Pumas because his pet dog disappeared.

Ramsey packed his bags and left Mexico after his dog Halo disappeared in San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato state. The emotional trauma of the incident caused Ramsey to stop participating in team training, a situation that Pumas club management could no longer ignore. Therefore, the club chose to terminate the 34-year-old's contract, a decision that both parties agreed to.

According to German transfer data, Ramsey's contract with the Cougars was originally until June 2026. However, the emotional impact of losing Halo reportedly sent the player into a deep depression, prompting his decision to return home to Europe to be with his loved ones.

Currently, the Cougars will not issue an official statement regarding Ramsey's departure. Out of respect for his career and the contract terms cited by the player representatives, the club has decided to postpone any official announcement until the end of the 2025 autumn league season.

At this point, Ramsey’s short chapter in Mexican football comes to an end. The former Arsenal and Juventus star agreed to terminate his contract, expressing his desire to take a break and focus on his family following the loss of Halo in mid-October. Ramsey had offered a high reward for any information leading to Halo's whereabouts, but more than two weeks had passed and there was still no news.

Ramsey's time in Mexico lasted less than six months. He joined the Cougars as a major signing in the 2025 autumn league, but due to limited playing time, his impact failed to live up to expectations. He only made 6 appearances for the club, including 3 starts and scoring 1 goal. His last appearance in the Mexican League was on September 27 against Cougar America.
