Transfer Market: Sevilla Negotiating Joan Jordán's Exit to Portugal

Sevilla is reportedly in talks with a Portuguese club regarding the transfer of Joan Jordán. This move aims to alleviate the Andalusian club's wage bill, as Jordán currently earns a substantial €3.6 million annually. While caution prevails, significant progress is being made towards the departure of the Catalan midfielder, who commands one of the squad's highest salaries.

According to Spanish media, the player has been sidelined from the first team, as he is not part of coach Luis García's plans, making his exit a priority for Sevilla's management.

Offloading his high salary has always been a complex task, primarily due to the player's initial reluctance to forgo his contract, which runs until 2027. However, the situation has shifted. As reported by Estadio Deportivo in late May, Jordán has become more receptive to a summer departure, having understood he is not in the club's new technical project.

In this context, the possibility of a move to Portugal has emerged. The specific club's name remains undisclosed, but it is expected to be a top-tier team capable of covering the midfielder's salary, as Jordán is unlikely to accept just any destination.

Discussions appear to be well underway, though the Nervión club is maintaining a cautious stance. On the player's side, his inner circle remains tight-lipped on the matter.

The fact that the player has given his approval to explore this avenue is seen as excellent news for Sevilla, who hope the operation will reach a successful conclusion.

Weeks ago, it was reported that Joan Jordán's agency considered filing a complaint against Sevilla with the AFE (Spanish Footballers' Association) after the player was allegedly prevented from training with the rest of the squad, a situation that caused him considerable distress. However, this measure did not alter the club's decision, which remains determined to conclude the midfielder's tenure with the team.
