Monchi: “We want Seville at the forefront of European football”

Monchi reviewed in the official media of Seville what has been this year since his return, and also the news of the Nerviano club: “Everything has been very fast and intense. I think many of the things I had in mind on the day I returned have been fulfilled. The club has grown a lot while I was in Rome and now we are looking forward to continue growing in the future and to put Sevilla at the forefront of European football “.

“I saw Sevilla who was clear about where the club could go in the future and eager to do new things. I got on that car to mount my experience and my knowledge. Nuances are missing, but I think we are on that line“added the sports director, who is leading the project to put the Nervión club in a few years in the 500 million budget.

The current situation excites him: “This project that begins with my return is to cement an important future, to lay the foundations to continue growing in sports success. A first foundation was the current season, in which I am satisfied with what has been done until now. This could take time to curdle and I think it has caught on with some important bases to be excited about the future. The coach's work has been key fitting the pieces in such a short period of time. The President and the Council were also key to face all this revolution. Now, what lies ahead is exciting and we are on that path. “

Monchi believes that not going to the Champions League would not be a failure: “The demand cannot be lost, but neither can it be transformed into frustration. Not going to the Champions League would not be a failure. I want to go, I wake up dreaming about it every day, but staying fifth is not a failure, it is something that can be improved. “

King Midas of world football nuances the club's model: “Selling in order to grow has to be nuanced. We try to have templates that cost more than our income allows. To generate surplus value there is a job behind. Players with affordable prices that increase their value to be able to sell them. This business model does not generate trauma for me, it is a successful model. We are going to build a broader model that leaves us the possibility of deciding at all times whether to sell or not to sell to players. “

And he spoke of some of the improvements he is implementing: “The club's involvement in the data is growing in a beastly way. We have a large R&D department in which we are investing. I don't know if we are at the forefront, but I am very proud of what the club is doing in that line. This department supports everyone in the club, it is focused on the sports field now but in the future it will support the rest. “
