🤝 Real Betis extend their partnership with hummel for another decade
Real Betis Balompié has announced news for its fans this Wednesday: the extension of its collaboration with the prestigious Danish sports brand hummel for a period of ten years. This new agreement marks a milestone in the history of the Sevillian club, consolidating a relationship that promises to transform its presence in the textile market and bring the brand even closer to the Béticos. Advertisement Within this new framework of collaboration, it not only reaffirms the mutual trust between both entities, but also opens the doors to an ambitious project: the club seeks to enter the textile industry with the aim of increasing the variety of official garments available for its followers. This means that Real Betis, hand in hand with hummel, will assume an active role in the development of its products. From the choice of raw materials to final production, the club plans to diversify its offer, including not only the classic game shirts, but also collections of casual, sports clothing and even lines of footwear and formal garments. The agreement, which will extend until 2035, reflects the club's confidence in hummel's experience, a brand with a rich heritage in football and a previous track record with Betis between 1987 and 1990.

Cordovan designer Alejandro Gómez Palomo's firm is advancing its growth strategy. After operating since its founding in the Cordovan town of Posadas, the designer's birthplace, Palomo Spain is moving its headquarters to the capital. As part of its consolidation plan, the firm is launching its first women's ready-to-wear capsule within its Resort 2026 line. Palomo Spain is relocating its headquarters to Madrid to centralize operations. The move will take effect in July. The company will reveal the exact location closer to the opening. The new women's collection, "Cocoon," showcases the brand's signature DNA with a romantic aesthetic and functional design. The pieces reinterpret classic silhouettes and take inspiration from the south of Spain, featuring floral prints and polka dots. "The admiration for women has been present in Palomo since the beginning. Although we focus on offering men an aesthetic that has traditionally only been accessible to women, women have always been part of our universe. Now, that infatuation is renewed and becomes the center. It opens up a path of possibilities, enjoyment and beauty that we want to explore more than ever," said the Cordovan designer about the new collection. The new line, which will complement its men's offering, features fabrics such as fluid silks and embroidered velvets. It also includes a series of feather headdresses designed by the Sevillian firm Vivas Carrión, specializing in handcrafted hats and headdresses. "Cocoon" will be available from mid-October at selected points of sale and in Palomo Spain's online store.

🚨 Police investigate Kike Salas for betting on his own matches
This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇪🇸 here. Sevilla FC's homegrown player, Kike Salas, is being investigated for alleged illegal betting. The bets are related to yellow cards in Sevilla's matches during the 2023-2024 season, according to El Confidencial. Kike Salas usó cuentas falsas para apostar a sus propias amarillas: "Le metio 50 a Isco; son 300 mios".La Policía encuentra en el móvil mensajes que demuestran que forzó las amonestaciones en partidos de Primera División para efectuar apuestas ilegales — El Confidencial (@elconfidencial) May 22, 2025 According to the digital publication, the Police have found messages on the Sevillista's phone that indicate he forced yellow cards in five matches to benefit from bets. In addition, they have discovered that people close to him, such as a contact identified as "Richi", also profited from these activities, even using fake accounts to place the bets. 🔴Kike Salas, jugador del Sevilla FC por cuyo fichaje en este mercado andaba interesada la Lazio (podía ofrecer 15M€), detenido por la Policía por estar presuntamente implicado en una trama de apuestas futbolísticas ilegales por forzar tarjetas amarillas 👇 — Pepe Elías (@Pepelias17_) January 14, 2025 The investigation began in January 2025, when the National Police intervened in a Sevilla FC training session and Kike Salas was taken in for questioning, although he exercised his right not to testify. Sevilla FC then issued a statement showing respect for the judicial process and the presumption of innocence, but condemned any fraudulent conduct in sport. According to several Sevillian media outlets, it was this case that halted his transfer to Lazio in the last winter transfer market. The investigation indicates that, although Salas did not profit directly, his entourage did. LaLiga, for its part, contemplates severe sanctions in these cases for both the players and the family members or entourage involved. 📸 Fran Santiago - 2025 Getty Images

A Gen Z guide to Seville: the place to be for €2 beers, tapas and affordable-luxe hotels
Barcelona, Madrid, Ibiza and Marbella are where my generation tends to flock for a good time in the sunshine on semi-decent dime. All fantastic Spanish cities in their own right, though I'm here to tell you why you should trade-up these over-tourist and rather pretentious cultural capitals and jet-set to Seville instead. Steeped in fascinating culture and religious history, Seville is unlike anywhere else in Spain. It's not obsessed with trendiness and locals seem to have their own thing going on. They're more traditional, always smiling, endlessly helpful and making the quintessentially Spanish, laid-back style of living seem more appealing than ever. This is particularly refreshing given that other cities in the region such as Málaga, Granada and Cádiz face backlash from locals for overtourism. First and foremost, in case no one has ever warned you, don't go to Seville in the high summer. It's often referred to as the Iberian Oven during this period due the sweltering winds which blow in from North Africa, combined with its inland location on the dry plains of Andalusia away from the cooling influence of coastal winds. Instead, opt to fly over at the tail-end of winter or beginning of spring. Sure, the locals will gawk at your flowing dresses and shorts while sporting puffer jackets themselves, but 16 to 18 degrees C with the sun shining is any Brit's post-winter dream. Most importantly, you'll find the Sevillian oranges in full bloom. Moorish rule of the Iberian Peninsula in 711 to 1492 is the reason for the expansion and cultivation of orange trees in Seville, as they believed planting them brought happiness. Indeed, all over the city in every direction, orange trees offer leafy spots of glorious shade and a colourful hit of dopamine. Just don't grab one for an afternoon snack — not only do they belong to the Sevillian government, but most of the trees grow bitter oranges. Here's how to spend a long weekend in The Pearl of Andalusia. If Seville is the Pearl of Andalusia, The Mercer Plaza is its diamond. Luxurious, immaculately finished and filled to the brim with smiling staff who are super attentive. This gem of a five-star hotel is perfectly positioned in Plaza de San Francisco, which is just minutes away from the Catedral de Sevilla, Hospital Los Venerables and the Royal Alcázar of Seville by foot. My partner and I were in the Spanish city as he had decided to run the marathon there. Given Seville's marathon is said to be the flattest in Europe, it seemed like the perfect location for a first-time racer. On our first night we were unsure of where to grab a bite, so one of the lovely concierge team walked us over to a nearby tapas restaurant, got us a table, and practically ordered for us before bidding us a lovely evening. If that isn't old-school luxury, I don't know what is. The hotel also has a rooftop bar, simply referred to as the terrace by staff, with ample seating, a glorious view of the square below, and a cooling plunge pool — perfect for those brave enough to visit during the Sevillian summertime. Head to Delatribu Coffee next door for the perfect oat flat white to kickstart your morning. This hotel is surprisingly well priced given the sheer level of luxury. Who said Gen Z can't treat themselves to a luxury stay in a city where beers are essentially capped at two euros? This four-star hotel takes the cake for location if you're in Seville for tapas, and tapas exclusively. It's seconds away from a street called Calle Álvarez QuinteroIt which features countless bars serving classic tapas next door to one another, with varied menus. It's also perfect for Gen Zs who love a good party and don't particularly mind if said party prevents you from getting a full night's sleep. The rooftop features a large pool with lots of deckchairs, while the bar stays open till roughly 1:15am and has live flamenco performances with fantastic views of the city at sunset. The hotel is actually leased from the church, as it was once part of the Archbishop's palace, which is why you'll spot preserved Roman ruins in the dining room and stone arches in the bedrooms. Rent bicycles from reception for trips further afield. The heart of Seville is in its belly. To truly experience the wonders of the city, head to hundreds of authentic tapas bars and premium restaurants scattered throughout. It's known as the tapas capital of Spain for a reason. La Fatouch: A charming Lebanese restaurant offering vibrant Middle Eastern flavours and fresh mezze, flavoured with aromatic spices in a warm, welcoming setting. The falafel is crispy and flavourful, and their Sevillian orange signature non-alcoholic cocktail is immensely refreshing. Not sure what to order? Tell them how hungry you are, and they'll do all the work for you. Restaurante El Pintón: A stylish and modern eatery tucked away in a historic courtyard, serving creative Andalusian cuisine with a contemporary twist. The grand dining room with lofty ceilings and stylish interiors make for Instagram-worthy snaps. Bar Alfalfa: A cosy, buzzing bar blending Spanish and Italian influences, where locals and visitors gather over generous tapas and quality wine. It's absolutely tiny and always packed, so if you can't get in for lunch, try heading over for breakfast and grab their Pan con Tomate and café morning deal for €2.50. La Taberna: A no-frills, authentic Andalusian tavern offering simple yet delicious tapas, best enjoyed with a cold beer or a glass of sherry. Perfect for those looking to avoid fellow tourists at all costs. El Rinconcillo: Dating back to 1670, El Rinconcillo is the oldest tapas bar in Seville, where history practically seeps from the wooden beams as you savour traditional dishes like Jamón Ibérico and Espinacas Con Garbanzos. Bar Casa Morales: A historic bar adorned with giant wine barrels, which is known for its relaxed atmosphere and superb selection of cured meats, cheeses, and sherries. The Sangria here is delicious, and you can grab a hearty Pepito sandwich if you're feeling particularly hungry. Bodega Diaz-Salazar: A classic old-school bodega with a laid-back feel, perfect for unwinding with a glass of fino and some simple, well-made tapas. It's vintage shops galore over on Calle Feria, which is a few short minutes away from La Fatouch. Pop into Antro Vintage, Wonder Vintage or Mosaico Vintage to find some sartorial Andalusian treasures. This street is also home to the Mercado de la Calle Feria — the oldest market in Seville — which is on from Tuesday to Sunday at varied times. There's something oh-so Loewe about the handcrafted ceramic fruits, veg and general vessels sold at Armando Arts & Crafts, located in the glorious historical neighbourhood of Santa Cruz. Seville's commercial heart is Calle Sierpes. Most of the shops are classic European high street retailers like Berksha and Mango, though it's worth popping into Flabelus' flagship shop for some Venetian velvet pumps (though not exactly Spanish, they're cheaper in the EU). I also loved the eclectic selection of boho garments at Pan con Tomate, which has a couple of shops across Seville. La Carboneria: An unpretentious, intimate venue where you can experience raw, heartfelt flamenco, often with impromptu performances and an artsy crowd. Get your 'ticket' by buying a drink at the bar — a jug or two of Sangria if you're with a group. Royal Alcazar and gardens: A marvellous Moorish palace adorned with intricate carvings, stunning patios, and lush gardens, offering a glimpse into Seville's rich history. Stay for a while and you might catch a peacock or two. Plaza de España: A magnificent, semi-circular plaza with ornate tilework, grand bridges, and a tranquil canal where you can hire a rowboat for a peaceful ride. Stick around and you might just catch a free Flamenco performance under the balustrades. Seville is the flattest city in Europe, which makes walking is a breeze. There are also great city bikes should you need to cross the river or want to cycle over to the breathtaking Plaza de España. The bike-share system is called Sevici and you can snag a 24-hour pass for around €3 — perfect for riding through 190+ km of cycle paths in the city. There are old-school horse and carriage rides which start at either the Plaza De España or the Catedral for the romantics, and an easy to navigate bus system which takes contactless payments and costs €1.40 for a one-way ticket.
