Luis García Plaza has a roster with a salary cost of around 50 million euros, but the latest news from Sevilla FC suggest that there are additional 22 million euros linked mainly to players who are no longer part of the sporting plans. The bill raises the total cost to 72 million euros despite the profound remodeling carried out during the summer transfer window.

The issue directly affects the club's economic capacity in LaLiga. Tanguy Nianzou, Joan Jordán, Rafa Mir, Adrià Pedrosa, and Federico Gattoni account for approximately 30% of the total salary cost still being borne by the entity, even though the sports management has managed to remove these players from the squad.

Luis García Plaza has a squad worth 50 million

AS points out that the difference between the team led by Luis García Plaza and the actual expenditure helps to understand the issue. The players available for competition represent about 50 million euros, whereas commitments from previous operations add another 22 million euros to the salary balance.

During the summer, Sevilla FC managed to reduce part of these burdens through the departures handled by José Ignacio Navarro, appointed sports director last June. The remodeling concluded with 16 departures and 11 signings, although some contracts still have an economic impact despite the players no longer being part of the squad.

This salary savings were also crucial for making new signings. José María del Nido Carrasco explained that LaLiga's financial rules allow for a higher reinvestment percentage when reducing a player's cost compared to when the income comes exclusively from a profits from a player transfer.

Based on the figures provided by the president, saving one player's salary enables using approximately 70% when it's a key player and 60% in other cases. In profit from player sales, the available percentages drop to 35% and 20%, respectively. Meanwhile, Sevilla is already considering its first departure in the January market.

Sevilla FC needs another 4 million before June 30

The economic situation also explains much of the strategy followed this summer. The club generated around 50 million euros in sales, after reaching about 70 million euros the previous year, but the reduction in spending has had a greater impact in expanding the available margin.

The net debt has also decreased over the recent months. The organization estimates the reduction at approximately 30 million euros, from about 90 million to 60 million euros, as part of a process aimed at correcting the imbalance accumulated during the last seasons.

The next goal has a specific amount already set. Sevilla needs to generate around 4 million euros by June 30, 2027, either through a market operation or new commercial revenues. If they achieve this amount, they could finish the fiscal year without losses for the first time in four years.

While the financial management seeks these revenues, Luis García Plaza will have to compete in LaLiga with a roster whose actual cost is notably lower than what appears in the accounts. The next step for Sevilla FC involves further reducing the inherited commitments and finding these 4 million euros before the fiscal year's end to complete the first balanced budget since the start of their current adjustment period.
