Benoit Badiashile, possible replacement for Jules Kounde

Sevilla are preparing for the biggest sale in their history. An amount that could mean the opportunity to invest more than they have been doing in players of a higher level. The idea would be to go one step further and opt for already established players, without losing the good eye for signing that the famous Monchi has.

According to the newspaper 'L'Equipe', as soon as Jules Kounde's departure to Barcelona, who is the one with the most options, becomes official, Sevilla will go all out for Benot Badiashile, a 21-year-old French centre-back who plays for Monaco. The young player is valued at around 35 million euros. A figure that could be reached by the Andalusian club after the sale of the Sevilla player.

Badiashile has already been linked with other clubs, such as Bayer Leverkusen and Barcelona, when they still had several options to reinforce their defence. The French side would not let the player leave for less than 50 million euros. However, from the sporting direction of Sevilla, they would negotiate for a lower amount, taking advantage of the fact that he only has two years left on his contract.

Therefore, all that remains is for Barcelona and Sevilla to reach an agreement for Kounde so that the Andalusian club can go all out to sign the future leader of their defence.
