Ex-Argentina midfielder Almeyda named Sevilla coach
Sevilla announced the appointment of former Argentina international Matias Almeyda as the Spanish club's new coach on a threeyear deal. The 51-year-old Almeyda joins Sevilla after three seasons with Greek side AEK Athens, where he won a league and cup double in 2022-23. He also had a spell in Major League Soccer with the San Jose Earthquakes after coaching River Plate and Banfield in his homeland, as well as Mexican club Guadalajara. Almeyda returns to the club he represented as a player almost three decades ago. He played for Sevilla in 1996-97 before stints with Lazio, Parma, Inter Milan and Brescia in Italy. The former midfielder made 40 appearances for Argentina.

Sevilla finished 17th in LaLiga and just one point above the relegation zone.

Sevilla appoint former player Almeyda as manager
Sevilla have appointed Argentine Matias Almeyda as manager, the LaLiga club said on Monday, with their former player signing a three-year contract at the side which battled relegation last season. Almeyda spent one season at Sevilla when he joined from River Plate in 1996, before moving on to play with Lazio, Parma and Inter Milan in Italy. After ending his playing days back at River Plate, he began his managerial career there. The 51-year-old spent the last two seasons in charge at Greek club AEK Athens where he won the domestic double in his first campaign, having earlier parted ways with San Jose Earthquakes in the MLS. Sevilla avoided relegation by one point last season, with manager Garcia Pimienta sacked in April and Joaquin Caparros appointed until the end of the season, a campaign which saw angry fans storm the club's training ground last month.
