Sevilla decides Alberto Flores' future after Vlachodimos' arrival
Sevilla is evaluating options for Alberto Flores, whose contract runs until 2027. After losing both starting goalkeepers last season, the club re-signed Odysseas Vlachodimos and now seeks an experienced backup. Flores, though valued, does not meet the urgent profile the team requires.
What options does Alberto Flores have?
With Vlachodimos as the undisputed starter, Flores has three paths: convincing coach García Plaza to be the second-choice keeper, renewing and going on loan, or being transferred with buy-back clauses. His current contract allows him to negotiate with other clubs from January 2027.
Why isn't he a priority for Sevilla?
Sevilla seeks an experienced goalkeeper at low cost, but if the budget is exhausted elsewhere, Flores could stay. However, loaning him without renewal would be unusual, as his current contract provides some security.
What does the club say about his future?
While nothing is decided, the priority is finding an affordable but reliable backup. If that fails, Flores could be the internal option, though his lack of minutes and the need for a secure backup for Vlachodimos complicate his situation.
