Former Sevilla president José María del Nido has not attended this Wednesday at the oral hearing held in a Commercial Court in Seville by the lawsuit that José Castro once filed against him, current maximum representative of the entity, for breaking the governance pact signed last December between all the large shareholders and requesting the holding of an Extraordinary General Meeting to completely change the members of the board of directors.
Del Nido, supported by foreign investor who entered the club in 2019, raised an assault on power just in the best sporting moment of Sevilla with an alliance with the American partner, who owns just over 6% of the capital and who, curiously, entered the club of the hand of the current managers.
The former president has not attended the oral hearing, although his lawyers, who have participated in the session together with his own Castro as plaintiff, and other members of the club, such as the CEO, José María Cruz, and Del Nido's own son, José María del Nido Carrasco, as vice president and witness for both parties in dispute.
Castro has even requested in the lawsuit presented the disqualification of the vote of Del Nido's shares in the next Shareholders' Meeting and now it will be the courts that will decide the future of the cause and if the celebration of the Extraordinary Meeting, which must be held within two months of its request, and the Ordinary one coincide.
The governance pact signed by the large packages guaranteed the alternation of the presidency in the next 8 years, with the turn for the Del Nido family in 2023, but the former president has wanted to take command now.
