Djibril Sow, a 29-year-old Swiss midfielder, has caught the interest of Genoa and is preparing to leave Sevilla FC during this summer transfer window. The Andalusian club will entertain offers but aims to receive an amount close to the €10 million it paid for his signing in 2023.

The Italian team's monitoring has not yet translated into an official offer. Sow has just joined the preseason training camp in the Netherlands after participating in the World Cup and is under contract with Sevilla until June 30, 2029.

Genoa Keeps an Eye on Djibril Sow's Situation

Genoa has listed Djibril Sow as one of the options to strengthen their midfield. The Serie A club is awaiting his initial summer training sessions but has not yet presented a financial offer to Sevilla's offices.

Sevilla FC is putting the player on the market along with other squad members. The need to generate income and reduce the wage bill leads the sports management to consider any deal that could fund new signings in August. His departure has accelerated following the sale of Juanlu to Bournemouth.

However, the Seville entity does not foresee a sale due to his current valuation of €7.5 million. This amount falls below the investment made three years ago and would limit the financial margin of the transaction.

Sevilla paid around €10 million fixed plus three million in variables to Eintracht Frankfurt when the player had one year left on his contract. The outstanding amortization still exceeds five million, so the final price must cover that amount and leave room for a capital gain.

Sevilla FC Aims to Recoup Its Investment

The contractual situation allows Sevilla FC flexibility. Sow recently extended his deal until 2029 by agreeing to a delay in part of his financial terms, a measure that helped the club enroll other squad members in LaLiga.

This contract prevents Sevilla from accepting a low offer. The sports management will listen to Genoa and any German or Italian club, but their financial benchmark aligns with the expenditure made in 2023.

Sow featured in 35 official matches during the last season. The midfielder scored five goals, provided four assists, and accumulated 2,289 minutes, although he did not maintain a starting position throughout the campaign.

His prominence diminished after a change in the coaching staff towards the end. Following his substitution at halftime in the first match under Luis García Plaza, he only played a few minutes against Atlético de Madrid and Levante before regaining space in the final matchdays.

Preseason Will Determine Future Moves

The Swiss international joined the training camp in Garderen alongside Rubén Vargas. Both will accompany the team until the friendly against Bayer Leverkusen, scheduled for August 8, although their recent return may limit their playing time.

The midfielder's performance during these sessions will allow the coaching staff to assess his fit in the new squad. Sevilla aims to bring in a playmaker, a move that could further reduce Sow's prospects in LaLiga.

The next steps depend on Genoa, who must decide whether to translate their interest into an offer. Sevilla FC expects an amount close to €10 million and does not plan to hasten Djibril Sow's departure unless a proposal covers the outstanding amortization and creates wage bill flexibility.
