“New Sergio Ramos” to sign three-year Sevilla contract with €30m release clause
In recent weeks, Sevilla has been working on contract extensions for the first team. Right-back is a position that needs to be reinforced due to the impending retirement of Jesus Navas, who will be hanging up his boots at the end of 2024. The club has taken an important step towards establishing the club's long-term planning. position.
Jose Angel Carmona has mainly occupied the right-back position this season and will likely remain as a starter in the future. His current contract expires next summer, but according to Diario AS he has now agreed to extend his stay with Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan until 2028.
Carmona, who has been compared to former Sevilla favorite Sergio Ramos, will also see his release clause rise from €20 million to €30 million. He almost ended up at Sporting CP in the summer, but now wants to stay at Los Nervionenses for many more years.
Carmona has been one of Sevilla's most consistent players this season, so tying him down to a new contract is a good move. He's also only 22, so there's plenty of room for him to improve further.
