Sevilla welcomed Akor Adams back to training at the Ciudad Deportiva José Ramón Cisneros Palacios on Friday, marking his return while his future with Venezia is being settled. The striker listened to Luis García Plaza's briefing before heading to the physio team, amid talks that could see a contract running until June 2030.

What happened in Friday's session?

The squad completed its fifth training day of the week, gearing up for the friendly against Juventud Torremolinos on Saturday at 21:00 in the Estadio Jesús Navas. Besides Adams, the biggest news was Chidera Ejuke, who passed his medical and is now training normally with the rest of the group.

How does this impact the squad?

Adams' return bolsters the attack, but Alfon González's fibular rupture will keep him sidelined for at least two months. Andrés Castrín continues preventive work due to pubic issues. Meanwhile, Joan Jordán, Fábio Cardoso, Fede Gattoni and Rafa Mir are still training away from the first team while seeking new clubs after their contracts.

What does the competitive picture look like?

Sevilla sit 13th in La Liga with 43 points after 12 wins, 7 draws and 19 losses from 38 games; recent form is LLWWW, the last defeat being a 1‑0 loss to Celta Vigo on May 23. The club has scored 46 goals and conceded 60, leaving a -14 goal difference and sitting 51 points behind leaders Barcelona.

What comes next for the club?

Next Saturday Sevilla will face Juventud Torremolinos, a key test to fine‑tune tactics before the season starts. Meanwhile the board continues talks with Venezia to finalize Adams' sale, a move that could ease the wage bill and free a spot for new signings.

Who remains out of the squad?

Rafa Mir, whose legal troubles complicate his status, is still looking for an exit before his contract ends. The other out‑of‑squad players keep training at their respective locations, awaiting offers that will keep them playing.
