It is not happening because the families that own Sevilla fc, who have been busy lining their pockets for years are refusing to accept that the value of their investments can drop aswell as rise.
They are bleeding the club dry by refusing to sell at a price that could well be the last chance of saving it.
All the shareholders now in alignment. They want Ramos to pay a penalty for changing the agreement. They filed a complaint against him. It seems Benavente is now fully in the camp with the rest of the families, Castro and Junior.
They just stretching the gum with this sale nonsense.
The fairytale return is dead, the bridge is incinerated, and the lawyers are warming up on the sidelines. Given the timelines, there is now zero chance of a sale for this season.
And club is acting more transparently sure when it comes to finances for the coming season. Iām almost wishing we had kept Corndog at this point. And grateful that we already have Garcia Plaza on the hook. Who would want to take a job in the SFC front office in the midst of the present situation? I mean, we could surely convince a @ChrisLail or @Edinho to take those two respective jobs, but Iām unconvinced any serious coach or sporting director will want to hop into this dumpster fire without some serious cash stakes. And we donāt have any cash.
I agree. We in such a mess. Unlikely to be a sale now. They donāt want to sell unless it for a ridiculous amount.
It the same old same old. The only question is now is if thereās a slight change to board, they bring more people on it or keep it the same. They desperately need more money pumped into club, a capital increase and maybe they want a bigger majority of shares. They not just worried club wise but what they really care their salaries. They need this to improve the financial situation all round. As the ruin is so bad and needs to be addressed before 30 June 2026. This might force a board change.
Junior is still president for now but wouldnāt surprise me if del nido senior came back either as president or at least on the board to some capacity. They may bring another shareholder or other people in as well. It seems they taking this route instead of a sale so can line their pockets and hold on to power longer. They all in it together. Time will tell what happens.
He does but the Sevilla shareholders/board are already calling him a liar. I feel the relationship between Ramos and Sevilla shareholders is broken. Iām not even convinced they want to sell. If they do it for a massive amount and they clearly trying to find faultline in Ramos and his groups bid and strategy.
Iām not sure who is right or wrong here. We do know though the current shareholders arenāt trustworthy at all. Then again it could be true in part for Ramos too.
At the moment this is the only hope for a sale. Lappi bid was rejected as too low ages ago and no one else in running. It either this is revived or we going ahead without a sale. It will be crazy and god knows how they going to get through this period without it. It must be chaos in Sevilla boardroom right now.
Buckle up, Sevillistas. Iāve said it for years, this club will not turn things around as long as the current leadership is in place. I wasnāt thrilled that a private equity group was lined up to purchase the club, but I was willing to give them the benefit of the doubt as long as it meant change in the boardroom.
If weāre stuck with the same ownership, weāll be treated to yet another season of disappointment and anxiety.
Iām not super well-versed in the total situation, but if Iām reading correctly, Ramos showed up with an offer that cut the share price in half. Iād be pretty pissed too and caught of guard. The board couldnāt accept that proposal.
Well there goes my pipe dream of the new ownership being able to convince Oliver Glasner to join Sevilla and bring the club back to Europe again with shrewd signings and sound tactics. Guess itās also time to pre-order Football Manager 2027.
