La Liga
Sevilla FC is close to finalizing the departure of right-back Gonzalo Montiel, who has sparked interest from PSV Eindhoven. Despite several clubs from England and Argentina closely monitoring the defender, the only team that has shown concrete interest and directly contacted Sevilla is the Dutch side.
As reported by 'Marca', PSV, having just transferred their right-back Jordan Eze to AS Monaco, sees Montiel as the ideal replacement to cover that position. However, negotiations are not easy. While Sevilla is seeking a complete disassociation from Montiel through a sale or, at least, a loan with an obligation to buy, PSV is only willing to accept a loan with a purchase option.
The final details regarding the economic aspect need to be ironed out
The main obstacle in the discussions lies in the wage terms. The Andalusian club insists that PSV cover the player's entire salary, but the contract amortization would still be Sevilla's responsibility, complicating the deal.
Sevilla's sporting director, Víctor Orta, would prefer a sale, even at a reduced price, to free up space in the wage bill and close Montiel's chapter in Nervión. However, so far, no satisfactory offers have been received for the Argentine international, who was recently called up again by Lionel Scaloni for the national team. The most likely outcome appears to be another loan, allowing Sevilla to free up salary and focus on strengthening other areas of the team, especially the midfield.
