Sevilla eyeing free agent swoop for Espanyol star

The powers that be at Sevilla have identified a member of the attacking ranks at La Liga rivals Espanyol as a leading transfer target for the summer of 2025.

That’s according to Relevo, who point towards Javi Puado as the player in question.

Frontman Puado, for his part, is fresh off a productive opening to the campaign in Barcelona.

All told, across Espanyol’s nine La Liga outings, the 26-year-old has featured from the off in all but one, impressing on his way to a haul of three goals.

And such endeavours, it would appear, have not gone at all unappreciated on the part of the board at the aforementioned Sevilla.

As per a report from Relevo, amid their search for attacking reinforcements for next season, Sevilla have earmarked Puado as a leading option.

The frontman’s Espanyol contract is due to expire in the summer of 2025, with the Nervionenses ‘closely following’ Puado with a view to a potential free agent swoop.
