After a meeting on Monday of almost ten hours, Ramos, together with his trusted lawyer, Julio Senn, and the CEO of Five Eleven Capital, the Argentinian Martin Inx, had a new meeting this Tuesday with representatives of the owning families of Sevilla (Del Nido, Carrión, Alés, Castro and Guijarro) who have culminated in a “total agreement”, confirmed to EFE negotiation sources.
The agreement reached, which still must be signed in a notary's office and be authorized by the CSD, establishes the sale of, approximately, 60% one hundred of the share capital of the club, which has been valued at something more than 400 million euros (about $470 million dollars), according to the sources.
The first approach of the ex-Spanish international to the ownership of Sevilla took place in the last days of 2025 and the negotiations intensified from March, when the two parties signed a letter of intentions (LOI, by its acronym in English), which provided for exclusivity for the possible buyer until next May 31st.
Although the intention to carry out the purchase-sale was firm on both parties, the delicate economic situation of Seville caused a point of friction not in the valuation n of the company, between 400 and 450 million euros ($470-$528 million dollars), but in how it was going to affect the enormous debt that it has the disbursed price per share.
The ‘due diligence’ (sales audit) done by the international consulting firm KPMG confirmed the most optimistic forecasts of the board of adminis tration, which put the entity's debt at about 85 million (about $100 million dollars), which has finally unlocked the operation.
After noon this Tuesday, Sergio Ramos, former Sevilla, Real Madrid, PSG and Mexican Monterrey footballer, has left the hotel in Seville (southwest of Spain) where the conversations took place nriente and responding with thumbs up to the question of whether the purchase-sale of Sevilla had been substantiated, which was confirmed to EFE both by the Camas surroundings and by sources close to the club.
The possibility of Sevilla, a team that dismissed Argentine coach Matías Almeyda in March due to poor results, relegated to LaLiga Hypermotion (Second Division espa ñola) has been considered during the negotiation and is an eventuality that would entail a notable reduction in the acquisition price, the negotiation sources pointed out.
Sevilla is thirteenth, with 40 points, three more than the penultimate classified of LaLiga EA Sports (First), which marks the line of relegation, with three missing days for the conclusion of the tournament, in which Luis García Plaza's team must measure Villarreal (3rd in the table), Real Madrid (2nd) and Celta (6th).
