Negotiations over a potential change of ownership at Spanish football club "Sevilla" continue, but in recent days the process has taken an unexpected turn linked to the name of Sergio Ramos.
According to İdman.Biz, Spanish media report that the 39 year old defender, a product of "Sevilla’s" academy, is involved in talks to acquire the club and is leading his own investment group. The proposal backed by Ramos is said to be the most favorable among all offers currently under consideration by the shareholders.
Previously, an American consortium represented by local businessmen Antonio Lappi and Fede Quintero had been considered the frontrunner to purchase "Sevilla". However, after a financial audit, the value of shares in their bid was revised downward, which ultimately led to the collapse of negotiations. Against this background, the project involving Ramos has moved to the forefront, with the former Spain captain viewed as the public face and a key figure in a possible new management model for the club.
It is also noted that Ramos, who left Mexican side "Monterrey" in December and is currently a free agent, has not retired from professional football and continues to consider a return to European competition. In the context of a potential change in leadership, a third return to "Sevilla" is not being ruled out, despite the fact that he previously described his last stint at the club as a farewell season.
Sergio Ramos began his professional career at "Sevilla" and later returned to the club in the 2023/2024 season, spending one year at the "Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan".
