Sevilla FC’s Financial Stability and Future Plans

The sale of Sevilla FC remains a prominent topic in the coming months, with the situation still unfolding. Meanwhile, the organization is following a strategic roadmap aimed at stabilizing its financial position and adhering to deadlines to achieve budgetary balance within this season.

In an interview with Palco23, a media outlet focused on economic information in the sports sector, President Del Nido Carrasco expressed optimism regarding reaching the break-even point and covering all expenses. He noted that this milestone could be achieved as early as this year, largely due to the expedited repayment of a €178 million loan to Goldman Sachs: “We executed this faster than our initial three-year timeline.”

The club anticipated losses, estimating it would operate at a deficit for three years due to poor sporting results in recent seasons. However, the president dismissed the notion of following in the footsteps of clubs like Cádiz: “Our strategic plan does not include taking Sevilla FC public.” Additionally, he indicated that the club has not considered bringing in an investor to purchase equity that would allow for representation: “Sevilla as a club has not evaluated the option of an investor acquiring a portion of the social capital.”

Regarding other matters, the president stated, “We are growing across all lines of business” and highlighted the new Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán stadium: “It will allow for an increase in ordinary revenue, thanks to a commercial area operational 365 days a year and VIP seating.” He also noted the need to “seek more efficient squads.” The president acknowledged that “with three loaned players and those not counted on by the coaching staff, which cost us €27 million, we are effectively working with a squad costing €58 million.”
