Of the nest, culpable, Yeah, but…

José María Del Nido has been found guilty of crimes of embezzlement and prevarication and sentenced to seven years in prison. A decision of the Supreme Court that has cost the top Sevilla leader his job, after eleven years of management at the command of the Andalusian ship. Although his actions in his private and professional life may be overshadowed by his connection to the corruption plot of the Marbella city council, The truth is that during his stay as president of Sevilla, Del Nido has offered more lights than shadows.

Not just lights, But it can be said without risk of being wrong that José María del Nido has been the best leader in the history of Sevilla and one of the best in Spanish football.. This is supported by the number of titles and the club's accounts in these 11 years. He 27 May 2002, date of your choice, The Nervión team was a team immersed in scandals with sporting problems (had consummated his promotion to the First Division after a passage through the hell of the Second), continuous changes in the presidency and a debt that exceeded 350 millions of euros. In titles, only two Copas del Rey a league in the years 40 He was among the winners of a record that lacked international cups.. The illusion of lost fans and a team that had a serious identification problem were the greatest dangers faced by a club that many considered dead..

Eleven years and six months later, Sevilla FC is something else. Under his mandate two more Copas del Rey have been won., two UEFA Cup, 1 European Super Cup, The club has been declared the best team in the world for two years by the IFFHS. The team has been fighting on many occasions for the League and side by side with the greats of Europe. In part thanks to his knowledge of selling and buying. From the hand of Monchi, in addition to strengthening the quarry, He has made hundreds of millions for players like Reyes (30), Baptist (25), Ramos (27), Alves (40), Negredo (25) or Navas (20) and has invested little money in potential figures such as Kanouté in their day., Luis Fabiano, Adriano, Poulsen o Rakitic.

The team is recognized worldwide. Rare is the place where Sevilla is not known, it is included, The first lady of the United States has confessed to being a Sevilla fan, maybe, partly, because the club's anthem has become a world reference for good taste and the good combination of music and football.

sports success, but also economical. Del Nido leaves one of the healthiest teams in Spain along with Villarreal CF and a more than notable financial management. The club has returned to the path of annual surplus despite two bad campaigns marked in part by the lack of income as a result of the absence in the Champions League and a television cast always considered “unfair” for him.

Pepe Castro will be his replacement. A trusted man of the maximum leader. Without much personality, He will be in charge of following the path left by Del Nido. Difficult task, without doubt.
