Sevilla FC are facing a hectic transfer window where the sale will determine the club’s ability to strengthen the squad. Although they have secured their place in La Liga, the Andalusian club now have to sell key players to balance their finances – and one of the most in-demand players on the list is Dodi Lukebakio.
Impressive season – but the future is very open
Despite being one of the few bright spots in an otherwise disappointing season, the Belgian striker could disappear from Sánchez-Pizjuán this summer. His achievements, characterized by explosive speed, technique and physical strength, have not gone unnoticed. Several clubs from La Liga and abroad have shown interest, and FC Barcelona are already considering him as a potential replacement for Raphinha.

The club’s financial situation is strained. According to internal sources, the sale of players such as Lukebakio and Loïc Badé is a top priority to raise the necessary funds. The Belgian winger is likely to bring in around €30 million, a significant sum given the club’s current situation.
Sporting director Víctor Orta is also under pressure. Although he has received public support from President Del Nido Carrasco, his leadership has been criticized by both supporters and the media. His future is uncertain, and it could affect the club’s strategy in the transfer market.
