Sevilla FC continue to show interest in signing Boubakary Soumaré, the current Leicester City player who impressed last season during his loan spell with the Sevilla side. Despite the player’s outstanding performances in LaLiga, where he showed his ability to impose his physical presence and control the tempo of the game, the Andalusian club are facing serious financial difficulties to make his permanent transfer a reality.

On the other hand, Leicester City are willing to negotiate Soumaré’s departure for a sum close to 20 million euros. The young Frenchman has been deemed indispensable to the English club’s plans, which aim to restructure their squad after a season of ups and downs in the Premier League. Although the price of 20 million is reasonable compared to other transfers, Sevilla’s financial situation complicates any attempt to complete the deal.

Despite his limited success at Leicester, where he failed to secure a regular place in the starting XI, Soumaré proved during his time at Sevilla that he has the quality to shine in European football. The player showed his strength in midfield and his ability to contribute both defensively and in distribution, earning the trust of the coaching staff and Sevilla fans.

The amount requested by Leicester is beyond Sevilla’s reach.

However, Sevilla’s delicate financial situation, exacerbated by the effects of the pandemic and the lack of income from European competitions, has limited their capacity to make signings. Sevilla are still exploring ways to finance the deal, but if they cannot improve their financial situation, they could miss out on the opportunity to strengthen their midfield with Soumaré.

The player’s future appears to depend not only on negotiations with Leicester but also on how Sevilla manage their finances in the coming months. Competition for his signing could intensify if other clubs enter the fray, putting more pressure on Sevilla’s management.
