Imminent departure? Sevilla goes directly for the signing of Pau Víctor

Pau Víctor continues to attract suitors for the summer market that opens this week, thanks to the Club World Cup 2025. The FC Barcelona forward seems to be the first reinforcement chosen by a Sevilla that prioritizes improving its attack.

The Hispalenses closed LaLiga 24/25 with just 42 goals in favor in 38 matchdays, saving the category by just one point (17th place). Although the team has not yet defined who will be their next coach, the board already has several names on the table for the summer.

The first on the list is the one from San Cugat del Vallés, whose contract ends in 2029 and, although he had little to no part in Hansi Flick's rotation plan, the club only contemplates his departure on loan. In 24/25, the '18' culé only played 379 minutes spread over 29 appearances where he added 2 goals and 1 assist.

Sevilla wants to secure the loan of Pau Víctor this week

In that sense, the latest information indicates Sevilla's interest in closing, this week, the loan of the Catalan forward. The Hispalenses know the interest of several LaLiga clubs (Betis, one of them) in the culé attacker and do not want to waste time to secure his signing.

In addition, Sevilla seeks to take advantage of the special pass advantage for the Club World Cup. From June 1 to 10, any club can make incorporations, as long as its financial situation allows it, regardless of whether it participates in the tournament to be held from June 14 in the United States.

For LaLiga, Atlético de Madrid and Real Madrid will be the Spanish representatives, one as European champion in 2022 and 2024, the other (Aleti) thanks to their points accumulated in the ranking from 2020 to 2024.

Barça is in no hurry to resolve Pau Víctor's future

Understanding that his departure will be resolved through a simple loan, without an option to buy, Barça is in no hurry to resolve Pau Víctor's departure. The forward, however, does prefer to define his future as soon as possible to carry out the entire preseason with his new team.

If from now until the return to work of the azulgrana squad (July 13), the one from San Cugat del Vallés has not closed his departure from the club, Hansi Flick will continue to count on him in training and for the Asian preseason tour.

Barça hopes to play three friendlies at the end of June in Japan and South Korea, with which Pau could have the opportunity to add quality minutes to improve his market. In the 2024 American tour, the '18' was a figure and scorer of the team, scoring against Manchester City and Real Madrid.
