Given their ongoing financial options, Sevilla are often looking to sign players on low-cost operations. This will continue to be the case as they look to turn their fortunes around in the second half of the season.
Free agent signings are commonplace, and they look to be eyeing up another. Fabrizio Romano has reported that Stanis Idumbo Muzambo is on Los Nervionenses’ shortlist, with the young Ajax star expected to leave at the end of the season when his contract expires.

However, Sevilla are facing stiff competition to sign the 18-year-old. Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur are also keen, with both clubs expected to present contract offers in the coming weeks.
Muzambo would be a very shrewd piece of business for Sevilla, especially so given the aging nature of their current first team squad. However, it’s far from certain that they will be able to better Spurs’ offer, given the money that exists in the Premier League compared to La Liga.
