Rodrigo Zalazar damages knee ligaments — 38 days out
The words a physio says slowly. 38 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

A fracture rules Andrés Castrín out for 68 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Sevilla will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Business is business: Nacho Miras goes
Valencia paid $2.8M and Sevilla took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Sevilla turn down Castellón for Manu Bueno
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Words exchanged at Sevilla
Isaac Romero and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Izei Serrano steps up from the Sevilla academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Izei Serrano has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

One of our own: Gonzalo Guerrero joins the Sevilla first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Gonzalo Guerrero is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Chidera Ejuke was unplayable
Successful dribbles: 18. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.
In brief
- Player ratings Ninety minutes of Peque at his very best
- The dugout José Ángel Carmona gets picked when it counts
- Match Honours even between Sevilla and Atlético Madrid
