Lucien Agoumé, a 24-year-old French midfielder, has established himself as one of the great successes in Sevilla's transfer market after his continuity was in doubt during the summer transfer window due to a proposal from Saudi Arabia close to 30 million euros. Five matchdays later, the team has 10 out of 15 points, and the player is a regular for Luis García Plaza.

The Frenchman's performance has reinforced the club's decision to keep him in the squad. Agoumé has been a starter since the beginning of LaLiga, and his influence has increased in a midfield that was renovated during the summer.

Lucien Agoumé justifies Sevilla's bet

The departure of Lucien Agoumé became a real possibility in the last weeks of the transfer market. A proposal from Saudi Arabia between 25 and 30 million euros emerged, an amount that would have allowed Sevilla to make one of its major sales of the summer.

However, the operation never progressed due to the player's stance. Agoumé has now confirmed that his intention was to stay in Nervión and continue his growth at the club, a position he maintained even when the Saudi interest reached significant figures.

His response on the field has been immediate. The midfielder has played in the first five LaLiga matchdays, a start that has left Sevilla with 10 out of 15 possible points and has reinforced his position as a regular in Luis García Plaza's system.

The most recent example came against Valencia. Agoumé had an impact on the midfield organization and also took on responsibilities in the locker room, where he started the pre-match pep talk before the coach completed the message to the group.

Luis García Plaza finds a fixed piece in the midfield

Luis García Plaza has kept Agoumé as one of his references despite the acquisitions made in that position. The arrival of Youssouf Fofana has added competition and, at the same time, has allowed a partnership that has already shared minutes during this season's start.

The Frenchman believes that Fofana can complement his characteristics and has highlighted the new signing's ability to increase the team's options. Sevilla has also incorporated other profiles for the midfield, but Agoumé has retained his place in the starting eleven.

His continuity also has an economic aspect. The club had completed the acquisition of most of his rights from Inter Milan over the past year and currently has the player under contract until June 30, 2028, so there was no immediate contractual obligation to sell.

Despite the good start to the season, Agoumé has called for caution. The midfielder recalled that Sevilla also started well last season before facing difficulties later on, so he considers it necessary to maintain consistency in the upcoming matchdays.

The market left open the possibility of earning close to 30 million euros, but the start of the season has provided sporting reasons for the decision to keep him. The next step for Lucien Agoumé will be to maintain his position as a starter and confirm over the next few months that his stay was one of Sevilla's right decisions in the last transfer window.
