Matías Almeyda has finally given Sevilla a stable and recognizable identity. This was missing entirely before his arrival. The team now trusts its plan for the full ninety minutes.
The Argentine coach aims to play proactive football whenever the opponent allows it. Yet the limited quality in midfield makes it difficult to execute his ideas with real continuity.
Despite the progress in structure and mentality, serious gaps remain in the squad. The midfield still looks unbalanced, with three players sharing almost the same skill set. This overlap restricts Almeyda’s tactical options and slows the team’s ability to control matches through possession.

The offensive department is also far from complete. Sevilla depend heavily on the creativity of Rubén Vargas, who is delivering the performances expected of him.
They also rely on the clinical finishing of Isaac Romero, who works well as a secondary striker. However, he does not appear ready to carry the burden of scoring fifteen goals in a season.
Winter market plans focus on Jonathan David
Because of these weaknesses, the sporting management is preparing moves for the winter transfer window. Their priority is strengthening the attack. The most appreciated option is Jonathan David reports TuttoJuve.
The Canadian striker enjoyed an excellent previous season at Lille. His current campaign at Juventus has been disappointing, despite repeated opportunities under Igor Tudor.
With Luciano Spalletti now in charge, Dusan Vlahovic seems to have reclaimed an important role. This development makes a loan deal for Jonathan David increasingly plausible.

Sevilla view him as the ideal addition. His movement, acceleration, and instinct inside the box could complement Almeyda’s system. He would also give the team a profile they currently lack: a forward able to stretch defenses and attack space with conviction.
His presence could help Vargas find more freedom between the lines and allow Romero to operate in more comfortable areas.
However, Juventus do not intend to sell the player. The club still believes in his long-term potential. They see the current situation as a temporary adaptation issue rather than a sign of permanent decline.
A loan remains possible only if it does not include an obligation to buy and if it aligns with Juventus’ strategic plans. For now, Sevilla wait with interest. Almeyda hopes for reinforcements that match his football vision.
