Potentially set to lose both Diego Carlos and Jules Koundé in the summer, Sevilla are going to have to replace their centre-backs.
Newcastle are after the Brazilian, while Chelsea appear to have made the Frenchman their top target, and so, armed with the money from those sales, the La Liga club could attack other clubs, like Wolverhampton Wanderers, around Europe to buy their players.
We mention Wolves because Hespress are reporting that Monchi and his staff are ‘following’ Romain Saïss, currently an almost immovable object at Molineux.
A regular under Bruno Lage when fit and not playing for his national team, the 31-year-old’s contract will run out in the summer, meaning he will be a free agent.
It’s said the Morocco international is ‘in the sights’ of the aforementioned director of football, and the fact he hasn’t renewed with Wolves ‘suggests he would like to try a new adventure elsewhere, especially in La Liga’.
We’ll have to see if a move is made, but with his contract situation what it is, Lage might have to wave goodbye to one of his pillars sooner rather than later.
