The sports director of the Seville, Ramón Rodríguez Verdejo, ‘Monchi', once used social networks to publicly congratulate his players after the great season carried out by the squad coached by Julen Lopetegui, which finished the League in fourth position, since he tied five days in advance, and surpassed the historical record points in a single campaign, leaving it at 77.
“77 POINTS !!! Historical record to close a difficult, intense and exciting season. Proud of these guys, real crazy in the head. Starting tomorrow, the 21-22 season begins. And whoever wants to, can steal our illusion … ”, wrote the one from San Fernando on his Twitter account along with a photo of the group on the Sánchez Pizjuán lawn.
The manager from Cádiz has been one of the architects of the great season carried out by the Nervionenses, who since his return after his adventure as sports director of Roma, have qualified twice as quarterfinals for the Champions League, have won a Europa League, have touched a Cup final and have even dreamed for several days of fighting with the greats for the league title.
Monchi already worked together with Lopetegui in the construction of the squad with which Sevilla wants to take another leap next season.
