La Liga
Alfon González, a 27-year-old winger and, currently a player for Sevilla, has been pushed aside in Luis García Plaza's plans after playing only 10 minutes in the first four LaLiga matches. If his participation does not increase in the coming months, a new departure in the January transfer market emerges as a possibility even though his contract runs until 2028.
The player returned this summer after spending the second half of last season on loan at Villarreal, but an injury suffered at the beginning of preseason affected his early weeks under the new coach.

Alfon González, last in a position with four alternatives
Physical recovery has not solved Alfon González's main problem. Sevilla has gathered players to perform on the left side, leaving the player behind Chidera Ejuke, Rubén Vargas, and Félix Correia in the initial allocation of minutes.
The situation changed significantly towards the end of the transfer window. The club completed the signing of Félix Correia and at the same time, kept Rubén Vargas, whose departure had been considered during the summer.
García Plaza also has Ejuke, who started last Sunday against Espanyol. Even Julio Díaz has appeared in more advanced positions, increasing the options available to the coach for that area of the field.
The match on September 6 provided an additional signal. Alfon was on the bench in the draw against Espanyol, but did not play even though Vargas was absent due to knee discomfort and Correia had only recently joined the squad.
Luis García Plaza has only given him 10 minutes in LaLiga
The numbers reflect Alfon González's current role. He has played only 10 minutes during the 2026/27 season, all of them against Atlético de Madrid on August 29, and has yet to score or provide assists.
Consequently, he is the outfield player with the fewest minutes for Sevilla at the beginning. He once again did not play against Espanyol, a match in which Luis García Plaza started with Ejuke and had other offensive options on the bench.
The coach explained after the game that he had intended to use Félix Correia during the match, but the circumstances of the game altered the substitution plan. Alfon was not among the initial options considered to replace Ejuke.
His contractual situation does not require the club to make an immediate decision. The winger is tied to Sevilla until June 30, 2028, and his market value is currently estimated at €3 million.

January could once again open the exit door
The most recent precedent occurred precisely during the last season. After struggling to gain continuity in Nervión, Alfon was loaned to Villarreal on January 27, 2026, where he completed the second half of the campaign.
There are still several months before the transfer market reopens, and the hierarchy can change with injuries, suspensions, or decisions by Luis García Plaza. However, the competition on the left wing and his current 10 minutes in LaLiga force Alfon González to gain ground before January. If his participation remains the same, a new loan is likely to be considered again to secure playing time.
