Sevilla FC faces salary‑cap squeeze, must offload up to nine players
Sevilla FC must free salary space for as many as nine footballers to comply with LaLiga’s registration limits. The club’s one‑year registration method, used for players such as Rubén Vargas and Akor Adams, restricts the total wage bill and forces the team to consider selling or releasing those players along with others.
The Andalusian side began pre‑season training under manager Luis García Plaza after medical checks, featuring three new signings – Jon Guridi, Juan Iglesias and Arouna Sangante – and the loan extension of goalkeeper Odysseas Vlachodimos. Financial strain and the need for capital injection mean Sevilla is also looking to sell high‑value assets, with Vargas, Adams and youth prospect Oso listed as potential transfers.
Sevilla’s inability to secure a sale to the investor group led by Sergio Ramos adds urgency to the cash‑flow situation, highlighting the club’s broader economic challenges ahead of the upcoming season.
