Sergio Ramos Agrees To Purchase Sevilla, Pending Signature and Csd Approval

Former footballer Sergio Ramos, on behalf of the 'Five Eleven Capital' fund, and the majority shareholders of Sevilla reached an agreement this Tuesday for the sale of the Seville-based club, pending the signing of documentation and the approval of the operation by the High Council for Sports (CSD).

Following a meeting on Monday that lasted nearly ten hours, Ramos—alongside his trusted lawyer, Julio Senn, and the CEO of Five Eleven Capital, Argentine Martin Inx—had a new encounter this Tuesday with representatives of the families that own Sevilla (Del Nido, Carrión, Alés, Castro, and Guijarro), which culminated in a “total agreement,” negotiation sources confirmed to EFE.

The agreement reached, which still must be formalized before a notary and authorized by the CSD, establishes the sale of approximately 60 percent of the club's share capital, which has been valued at just over 400 million euros, according to sources.

The former Spanish international's first approach to the ownership of Sevilla took place in the final days of 2025, and negotiations intensified starting in March, when both parties signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) that provided exclusivity for the potential buyer until May 31.

Although the intent to carry out the sale was firm on both sides, Sevilla's delicate financial situation caused a point of friction—not in the company's valuation, estimated between 400 and 450 million euros, but rather in how the club's massive debt would affect the final price paid per share.

The due diligence (sales audit) conducted by the international consultancy firm KPMG confirmed the board of directors' most optimistic forecasts, which placed the entity's debt at approximately 85 million euros, a finding that has ultimately unblocked the operation.

Shortly after noon this Tuesday, Sergio Ramos—former player for Sevilla, Real Madrid, PSG, and Monterrey—left the Seville hotel where the talks were being held smiling and responding with a "thumbs up" when asked if the sale of Sevilla had been finalized. This was confirmed to EFE by both the entourage of the man from Camas and sources close to the club.
