Who are they the worst signings in the history of Sevilla? In the first decades of the 21st century, the Seville team was characterized by the signing of unknown players, at very low cost, which gave great performance, as Dani Alves, Adriano and Keita. However, It has not always been so, and there have been big mistakes, as Koné, Acosta from Machlas. He even returned to his old ways with the third decade of the 21st century.. From Colgados we will make a small selection of players who did not give the expected performance with the Sevilla shirt.

Some of the worst signings in the history of Sevilla

Rony Lopes

The most expensive signing in the history of Sevilla and to date, possibly the biggest failure of the Nervión club in terms of incorporations. Monchi decided to sign in 2019 to this player from Monaco for 25 millions of euros. Juice 14 parties, he got 2 goals and ended up on loan at Nice and Troyes where it didn't work either. In the summer of 2023, when he had one year left on his contract, was 'gifted'’ to Braga for the remaining salary of his contract and 500.000 euros. Without a doubt a real economic-sports disaster.

Luis Muriel

summer of 2017. Sevilla paid 20 millions of euros (the most expensive at that time) in the Colombian forward who had just broken it in Seria A with Udinese and Sampdoria. Its first year left a figure of 9 goals and 4 assists. In the second he ended up transferred to Atalanta where he recovered his level.

Quincy Promes

In 2018 It was Quincy Promes who became the most expensive signing in Sevilla's history after paying for him 21 million to Spartak Moscow. Athletically, it lasted a year where he played 33 games and scored 2 goals. was transferred 1 year later for 20 millions to Ajax losing at least alone 1 in the operation. In 2023 He was arrested for various crimes, among them 'stabbing’ to his cousin.

Oscar Rodriguez

Monchi decided to pay 13,5 million euros to Real Madrid for the rights of this footballer who had broken his 2 years in Leganés. He also gave him a long contract.. His first two years added 44 matches and a couple of goals and from there on loan to Getafe and Celta de Vigo to leave practically for free in September 2023 back to Getafe. A bad operation, one more in recent years.

Isco Alarcon

The man from Malaga arrived generating brutal expectation and euphoria in the Pizjuán in the summer of 2022 and ended up being defenestrated in January 2023 and becoming a villain when after 6 months without equipment, signed for free by the city rival, Real Betis, to go on to be reborn in a big way as a footballer dressed in green and white. At least it didn't cost money in transfer but it left a very bad taste in the mouth.

Lautaro Acosta

Con 20 years, Sevilla signed for a 7 million to one of the players with the greatest of league Argentina, a slight playmaker who blunted in Lanús. Just 29 matches and a goal (Al Athletic de Bilbao, in Copa del Rey) They are the baggage of a signing that ended out very expensive. After two assignments to Racing Santander and Boca Juniors, He ended again in Lanús, where did this season 6 goals in 30 parties.

Tom De Mul

An example of the failure to adapt to a new country. The signing of Belgian 2007 made illusion sevillismo, sold as the new Pearl Ajax. Nothing could be further from the truth. We must say in his favor that he met the best band right hand of Europe at the time (Alves-Navas), but only 9 matches in the 5 seasons belonged to Sevilla is something that is not acceptable.

Petros Marinakis

The Greek, long straight hair (with a strong resemblance to Mario Vaquerizo), He landed in Seville in summer 1996 to complement the best player that Sevilla, the also greek Tsartas. 11 parties and more than a heart attack to some sevillista fan touched the ball when his career was in Nervion. It is therefore, what Petros Marinakis is undoubtedly one of the Sevilla's worst signings in its history.

Aaron Koné - The Best Of Aaron Koné

Rather than quality football (He could barely play between injury and injury), Koné inclusion in this selection is due to bad luck. Los 12 million euros paid by the Ivorian (most expensive signing until Negredo's arrival some time later) They were a hard slab for a player who was just beginning in this football. Again, match Kanoute and Luis Fabiano did him no good, and after several serious injuries, He ended up scoring a lot of goals for Levante and being signed by Wigan.

Also to make matters worse, He had a goals clause in his loan from Levante to automatically renew where he was one away from renewing because he gave up playing the last few 3 parties. Later he renewed for Levante in gratitude for having rehabilitated him and it was the granotas who took the transfer to the English team. Definitely, a bad operation in relation to price in the history of Sevilla.

André-Jöel Eboue

"The goalkeeper rubber". With that nickname, saw coming was not going to end well the story. Not a single party in Nervion in that 1997/1998, after competition with Monchi and Casagrande, and little to tell this stranger who shared Cameroonian home with Lucio Wagner both being killed in the winter.

Lucio Wagner

Come and say in his presentation that was "new and improved version of Roberto Carlos". That was the best thing he did this Brazilian left back in Nervion. Housemate of said Eboué, 9 games played for Sevilla (including friendly, yes indeed) and low in the winter federative.

Axel

Another signing of that season 1997 in which Sevilla FC descended to Second Division. A year in which he played 24 of the 42 league matches, only finishing 13 of them and scoring a goal is the baggage of Brazil in Nervion, plus a nickname, "The Cobra", even remembered at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan-.

Cristian Colusso

He came in 1996 nicknamed “the new Maradona”. Everyone knows that comparisons are odious, but this comparison must have had jail felony. 6 games played for Sevilla after the big amount of the transaction (being the most expensive signing several years) and a great scandal lio commission for the club representatives and scams.

Jean-Manuel Thetis

Billion pesetas (some 6 millions of euros) It is what paid the French defense Sevilla this happened with much more pain than glory for Nervion. Twelve games with the Seville club was his career in the Spanish League, and more meaningless kicked an opponent. Just one goal, yes indeed, in a friendly against San Fernando, It was his offensive contribution.

Frederick Magellan

Uruguayan forward-looking telenovela heartthrob who spent more time watching the game from the bench in the field. Be the worst signing of several teams can make you rethink your football career, but the lanky striker has the honor of playing at Real Madrid, Sevilla FC or Torino, For example. 5 matches played in Sevilla, He is very remembered two goals he scored against Racing Santander in Nervion. It was all he did in Seville. Frederick Magellan sumo 5 career declines.
