Eduardo Mangles renews with Sevilla FC D and enters his third season

Sevilla FC D has completed the renewal of Eduardo Mangles, who will remain with the team for another season. The player will therefore enter his third season as a Sevilla FC player, further establishing himself as one of the key members of Óscar Olomo’s squad.

Mangles joined Sevilla FC D in January 2025 from Elche CF, becoming the team’s first winter signing. From his first months in Nervión, the attacking midfielder demonstrated his ability to adapt to the squad and make an impact in the final third.

Last season, the player took another step forward in terms of his role within the team, finishing as Sevilla FC D’s top assist provider. His performances stood out particularly for his ability to create chances, find space and contribute to the team’s attacking play.

His talent, pace and technical ability, qualities already highlighted by the player upon his arrival, have progressively allowed him to become an important figure within the Sevilla FC D squad.

A player established within the project.

This renewal represents another step in a journey that began in January 2025. Following an initial period of adaptation and a first renewal, Mangles now enters his third season with Sevilla FC D, continuing to grow in importance within the team.

The attacking midfielder is part of a squad that combines international talent, youth and continuity, within a project designed to provide its players with a competitive environment in which they can continue developing as footballers.

With this renewal, Eduardo Mangles will continue wearing the Sevilla FC D shirt, ready to contribute his quality and attacking ability during another season and to continue developing within the Sevilla FC project.

Sevilla FC expands its international project with the arrival of its Academy on the East Coast of the United States

Sevilla FC continues to advance its international growth strategy with the expansion of its development model in the United States. Following the consolidation of different initiatives in other parts of the country, the club is now preparing to establish its presence on the East Coast of the United States, where the new project will begin operating in summer 2027.

The initiative will bring the Sevilla FC training methodology to thousands of young footballers, offering development programs based on the model established within the club’s youth academy. The project aims to promote player development, talent identification and football education, while further expanding Sevilla FC’s international sporting presence.

The first phase of this expansion will feature official Sevilla FC Academy programs across four major metropolitan areas on the East Coast: Raleigh, Washington D.C., Philadelphia and New York. Each location will host activities focused on the development and training of young players.

The programs will be led by official Sevilla FC coaches, who will bring to the United States the principles and training methods used throughout the club’s youth development structure. This methodology has contributed to the development of top-level footballers and is represented by players such as Sergio Ramos and Jesús Navas.

Beyond the summer camps, the project will progressively expand its range of activities across the United States. Future initiatives will include programs focused on talent development, coach education and international experiences designed to help young footballers continue their development within the Sevilla FC environment.

This new stage will be made possible through the collaboration between Sevilla FC and Global Sports Development Group, the club’s strategic partner for the development of Sevilla FC Academy on the East Coast of the United States.

With this new expansion, Sevilla FC continues to extend its development model beyond Spain and strengthen its presence in one of the world’s fastest-growing football markets. This expansion will allow the club to share its values, identity and methodology with new generations of footballers across the United States.

Nacho González Signs Contract Extension

Since joining the club, Nacho has consistently demonstrated that he embodies the values of Sevilla FC. His work ethic, sense of responsibility, and daily commitment have made him one of the most respected figures in the dressing room, playing a key role both on and off the pitch.

Last season represented one of the greatest challenges of his football career. A serious injury sustained at the beginning of the campaign kept him sidelined for much of the season, preventing him from competing with the consistency he had hoped for. However, rather than distancing himself from the team, Nacho approached his rehabilitation with exemplary professionalism, supporting the squad in every training session and every match, demonstrating his leadership from the sidelines and becoming a constant source of encouragement for both the coaching staff and his teammates. His commitment throughout this period perfectly reflected the values that define Sevilla FC: hard work, perseverance, resilience, and a strong sense of belonging.

In addition to his defensive qualities, Nacho brings the ability to contribute in attack, an excellent understanding of the game, and extensive experience within the Sevilla FC structure—qualities that will continue to be invaluable to the development of Sevilla FC D. With his recovery now well advanced and his focus firmly set on the new season, Nacho begins this new chapter with great enthusiasm and the determination to once again enjoy football at the highest level.
