Sevilla FC Academy strengthens its commitment to the United States for the 2026/2027 season

World football is looking to North America. And so is Sevilla FC Academy. That’s why, coinciding with the World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico, we at Sevilla FC Academy are announcing that the 2026/2027 season will mark the largest presence of our sporting projects on U.S. soil to date.

Starting this very summer, we will bring our official camps to cities across the United States. Thousands of boys and girls will train the way we train in our youth academy — with our methodology and our values. The will and the way. Dreaming big and working every day to earn it. We speak the same language, even if in two different tongues. But we won’t stop there. Our teams will cross the ocean to take part in various events, in response to the rising level of North American football.

American talent already wears red and white

The United States is not a new market for Sevilla FC Academy. It is already part of our present history. Today, more than 15 American players are part of our academy — and we expect many more to come. Young players who arrived with a dream and the determination to chase it every day. They couldn’t have chosen a better home: at our Academy, ambition is not an option. It’s a requirement.

That’s why we will keep backing the United States as a priority market. To grow together. To develop the footballers of tomorrow. To bring together two cultures that share what matters most: the conviction that the only limit is the one you set yourself.

NEVER SURRENDER.

Sevilla “D” draws in Gerena

Sevilla “D” faced a demanding away fixture in the penultimate league matchday, travelling to face Unión Gerena, a side positioned just above them in the table. Coming into the game on an impressive run of results, the Sevilla team aimed for a victory that would allow them to overtake their opponents, having already secured a 2-0 win in the reverse fixture at the José Ramón Cisneros Palacios Training Ground.

Although the Sevilla side enjoyed the majority of possession, the hosts managed to create dangerous openings. Mamour Sené produced two important saves to keep the score level during the first half.

However, in the 32nd minute, a recovery in midfield allowed the home side to launch a swift attacking move, leaving their striker one-on-one with the goalkeeper before calmly finishing to make it 1-0.

Sevilla “D” reacted immediately to the setback. Just three minutes later, Álvaro Perea restored parity with a well-taken finish following a positive attacking sequence from the visitors. The sides went into halftime level at 1-1.

After the break, the Sevilla side displayed greater composure and control, dominating possession while limiting Unión Gerena’s attacking opportunities. The visitors created several chances before finally taking the lead in the 73rd minute, when Fidel Morán struck a powerful left-footed shot from the edge of the box into the far corner to make it 1-2.

The hosts responded quickly, though, and equalised just five minutes later from a corner kick situation.

In the closing stages, Sevilla “D” continued pushing forward in search of a winner, while Unión Gerena attempted to disrupt the visitors’ attacking rhythm. Despite several late opportunities, the score remained unchanged, and the match ended in a competitive 2-2 draw, allowing Sevilla “D” to extend their strong run of form in a challenging away fixture.
