Sergio Ramos Nears Stunning Sevilla Takeover Deal

Former Sergio Ramos is on the verge of becoming the new owner of Sevilla FC after reportedly completing the process to acquire the Spanish club.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the deal has been agreed, with only final legal formalities and regulatory approvals remaining before an official announcement is made.

Romano disclosed via his social media platform that Ramos and his brother, René Ramos, have led negotiations for the takeover, which is believed to include the club’s existing debts.

The agreement is reportedly valued at approximately €450 million.

“Sergio Ramos has completed the process to buy Sevilla and become the new club owner,” Romano stated.

The report added that the former Spain captain was personally involved in lengthy negotiations, including a marathon 10-hour meeting on Monday before concluding decisive talks on Tuesday.

Investment fund representatives are also believed to be part of the consortium backing the takeover.

The development marks a remarkable new chapter in Ramos’ long-standing relationship with Sevilla, the club where he began his professional football career.

Ramos emerged from Sevilla’s famed youth academy before making his senior debut in 2004. He left the club a year later to join Real Madrid, where he established himself as one of the greatest defenders of his generation.

During his illustrious spell at Madrid, Ramos won numerous domestic and international honours, including four UEFA Champions League titles, multiple La Liga crowns, and several FIFA Club World Cups.

He later enjoyed a stint with Paris Saint-Germain before returning to Sevilla for a brief second spell in 2024.

Should the takeover be finalised, Ramos would transition from club legend to boardroom leader, joining a select group of former footballers who have gone on to own the clubs where they once played.

The deal, however, still requires approval from the Spanish Sports Council (CSD) and other relevant regulatory bodies before it can be formally completed.

No official statement has yet been released by Sevilla, but reports in Spain suggest that the transaction is in its final stages.

The proposed takeover comes at a crucial period for Sevilla, who have endured financial challenges and inconsistent performances in recent seasons despite their rich European pedigree
