The Sevillista costume has gone from being one of the longest to have one of the lowest average ages of the competition
Juanlu, Kike Salas, Idumbo and small are the youngest players on the squad led by García Pimienta
When a project is exhausted there are symptoms. Because of very good resources, the passage of time, wear and exploitation end up putting a expiration date. He Seville Of the last five years he has lived on the rent of a good handful of settled players, with extensive experience in battles and with a tanned history in both homemade and international competitions. A group that under the orders of Julen Lopetegui They gave the Nervión Club one of the most regular times in the football elite.
The objective was to invest in soccer players who could give Sevilla one more jump, but the landing was not firm and the cimbronazo still feels. This, together with Bad economic management and the nefarious Sports results They led the club to make drastic decisions. Two years struggling for permanence, the decline in income from competitions and sales of players dragged Sevilla to a borderline. A panorama that remains more afloat thanks to the loan of 108 million euros that closed a year ago.
In this way, the Sevillista entity is following a plan of cuts and staff reconversion with the aim of taking firm steps towards sustainability. The goal is to be solvent again, comply with LaLiga and LaLe exploit the Sevilla brand Beyond sports. One of the legs to carry out this plan is to rejuvenate the template, not only to find talent, but also to generate capital gains that raise income.
In addition, during the last four planning, sports management has drastically reduced the cost of the workforce. And it is that Sevilla has been one of the Spanish clubs that More has spent on salaries In the last seasons. In fact, it has gone from investing around 200 million euros in files at the 110 million it currently costs.
29 to less than 26 years
This reduction in expenses has been the result of Player contracts (such as Tecatito, Papu Gómez and Idrissi), transfers at zero cost (Acuña, Óscar Rodríguez or Dmitrovic) and the non -renewal of soccer players of the entity of Rakitic, Fernando, óliver Torres or Erik Lamela.
Proper names that, on the other hand, also raised the average age of the Sevillist template. In fact, the Hispanic team last year took the most veteran eleven in the history of the Champions League. However, it was in the Season 2022-23 When Sevilla had the third leliga longeva template with about 28.6 years on average. A figure slightly higher than 28.2 that registered at 2020-21 and 2021-22.
And the Summer of 2023Monchi left, Víctor Orta arrived and the Board of Directors activated the regeneration plan. The first year of the Madrid served to release ballast and patch holes, the Middle Ages descended at age 28.
During the second summer of Orta, the changes were deeper and were made up to twenty operations between inputs and exits of players. Signed a Little22 years, for four million euros and paid another four for 50% of Lucien I trimmed (23 years). He repeated to Carmona23 years after two seasons assigned and incorporated as a free agent to Chidera Ejke27 years old, now Álvaro Fernández26. Saul (30) E Iheanacho (28) They were the older players who arrived at the club this summer.
In December, Jesús Navas retired And, with him, the most veteran footballer left the squad. His decline (and that of Ocampos) was supplied by Rubén Vargas during the controversial winter market. The Swiss is 26 years old, one more than Akor Adams, the striker chosen by Orta to rectify the choice of Iheanacho.
These changes significantly modified the Middle Ages of the Sevillist template, which is currently in the 25.9 years. Almost three years below that two campaigns ago. In this way, it has been established within the six youngest templates in LaLiga, only behind Barcelona, Valencia, Real Sociedad, Espanyol and Valladolid.
The quarry, one more leg
An objective that has also been fulfilled thanks to the Utrera road. Sevilla already warned that the Canteranos were going to be an essential leg in this process and the level of the lower ranks of the club is giving the size. García Pimienta has made a total of six players from the first team with the first team Seville Atléticobut not only that, but Juanlu, Kike Salas, Isaac Romero and Carmona They are holders.
Kike Salas has received his dorsal from the first team this year, while Juanlu has been promised on the 16th of Navas for next June. On the other hand, Idumbo is also in dynamics of the first team, although its prominence has descended in recent weeks.
In this way, the younger players of the Sevillista squad are currently Idumbo, small, Juanlu and Kike Salas. While the most veterans are Nyland (34), Gudelj (33), Saul (30), Marcao (28) and Lukebakio (27).
