Sevilla eyes Skhiri and Raíllo as transfer targets
Sevilla is considering moves for Ellyes Skhiri and Antonio Raíllo, but these depend on the potential departures of Lucien Agoumé and Marcao in the final stages of the transfer window. According to Zona Mixta, Skhiri is being considered if Agoumé accepts an offer from Neom SC in Saudi Arabia. Agoumé has yet to respond, while his agent, Niang Djibril, is in Sevilla seeking a sale that could bring between 25 and 30 million euros to the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán.
Who are Skhiri and Raíllo?
Ellyes Skhiri, 31, has been relegated to Eintracht Frankfurt's second team, and his future in the Bundesliga looks uncertain. His contract expires next summer, which could facilitate a transfer in this window. Meanwhile, Antonio Raíllo, a 34-year-old central defender from Córdoba, remains in José Ignacio Navarro's plans if Marcao leaves. Raíllo is entering the final year of his contract with RCD Mallorca.
Why are they important for Sevilla?
Sevilla aims to strengthen its squad to maintain its position in La Liga. Currently, the team is in third place with 3 points, following a win in its first match of the season. With 2 goals scored and 1 conceded, the team seeks to consolidate its place at the top of the table. The potential signings of Skhiri and Raíllo could be key to achieving this goal.
What comes next?
Sevilla's next match will be against Osasuna, currently in 16th place. This game, scheduled for February 28, 2027, will be an opportunity for the team to demonstrate its strength and continue its positive streak. Meanwhile, Sevilla's management continues to work in the transfer market to secure the necessary reinforcements.
