“He can't go” – Garcia Pimienta begs Sevilla to offer new contract to in-form defender

Sevilla's squad has changed drastically over the past two seasons, although two players who have stuck around are right-back options Jose Angel Carmona and Juanlu Sanchez – although he has played more in midfield this season because of the impressive form of the former.

The impending retirement of Jesus Navas means that Carmona and Juanlu will rise to prominence in the coming months. However, their cases are complicated, as their contracts expire in 2025 and 2026 respectively.

Sevilla coach Francisco Javier Garcia Pimienta is determined to have both players tied down to new contracts, and that's especially the case for Carmona, who he spoke about this week (via Relief).

“He can't go. He is pure and simple fan of Sevilla. He has to fight for his and I hope and I want him to stay with us.

In the case of Carmona, he is desperate to renew before his contract expires at the end of this season. However, Seville they put the situation on ice for now, which could complicate things.
