Asane Sow, a 20-year-old winger from Basilea, has entered the Sevilla's transfer list for upcoming markets after the club sent scouts to watch him live against Young Boys. The Swiss team, which paid 600,000 euros for him this summer, aims to earn between 8 and 10 million euros in a future sale.

The monitoring is still in an initial phase. There is currently no offer or open negotiation, but the LaLiga club has started gathering information about a player who is also being scouted by Napoli.

Asane Sow impresses Sevilla with 4 goals and 3 assists

Sevilla sent representatives to Stadion Wankdorf to witness the 3-3 draw between Young Boys and Basilea on August 29. Sow started the match, played the full 90 minutes, and scored his team's second goal in the 37th minute.

This match reinforced the interest based on his statistics. The winger has 4 goals and 3 assists in seven official matches since the start of the season, considering his appearances in the Super League and the Cup.

His most productive game came against Thun on August 9, where he scored 2 goals and provided 2 assists in Basilea's 4-2 victory. He then scored against Young Boys and assisted against Sion in the 1-2 defeat on September 3.

Sow primarily plays as a winger. He is right-footed and can start from the left to drift to central positions, although Basilea is also utilizing him on the right side. This versatility expands the positions from which he could fit into a LaLiga team.

Asane Sow, Sevilla's target

Basilea sets a price range between 8 and 10 million

The progress of Asane Sow has led to a change in his financial situation just two months after his signing. Basilea paid 600,000 euros to Pro Vercelli in July 2026 to bring in the player, whose contract runs until June 30, 2030.

Now, the Swiss club's aim is to secure a future sale between 8 and 10 million euros. This would mean a more than thirteen-fold increase on the initial investment if the deal eventually closes at the lower end of that range.

Napoli is also in the race in this scouting process. Scouts from the Italian team were present at the Young Boys-Basilea match, and like the Spanish club, they are currently collecting data before deciding on a potential deal.

The planning does not require immediate action either. Sevilla currently has players for the wide positions such as Félix Correia, Rubén Vargas, Chidera Ejuke, and Alfon González, and the tracking of Sow is planned for future transfer windows and the evolution of the squad.

The next step with Asane Sow will be to see if he can maintain his form in the coming months. Basilea has the player secured until 2030 and does not need to sell in the short term, while Sevilla will continue monitoring his progress before deciding whether to turn the tracking process into a concrete deal to strengthen their LaLiga squad.
