Sevilla coach Quique Sanchez Flores to leave club at end of season, club wants to keep departing captain Jesus Navas
Sevilla confirmed on Saturday that coach Quique Sanchez Flores will be leaving the club at the end of the season. The club, currently in 12th place in La Liga, was in a relegation battle when Sanchez Flores took over in December.
Sanchez Flores’ contract was set to expire in June 2025, but both parties have agreed that he will depart. Sevilla president Jose Maria del Nido Carrasco praised the coach for turning the club’s fortunes around with hard work.
In addition to Sanchez Flores’ departure, the club also announced that captain Jesus Navas will be leaving at the end of the season. However, Navas released a statement on social media criticizing the club for not contacting him about renewing his contract, which expires in June.
Despite the misunderstanding, the Sevilla president expressed his desire to offer Navas a lifetime contract to stay at the club. He emphasized that Navas deserves to be at Sevilla for as long as he wants, both as a player and potentially in a future role at the club.
The news of Sanchez Flores’ departure and the potential offer of a lifetime contract to Navas has sparked interest and speculation among fans and pundits alike. Sevilla will be looking to make the necessary changes to ensure a successful future for the club.
