Premier League clubs on alert as Champions League outfit make entire squad available for sale.
There could be trouble ahead in the current transfer window for one particular Champions League club that have been forced to put their entire squad up for sale, and their apparent pain could see Premier League club’s gain handsomely.
According to a tweet from Radio MARCA, La Liga side, Sevilla, winners of the Europa League last season, are mired in debt and are being forced to consider offers for every player.

Before the start of the new season, players like Ivan Rakitic, Youssef En-Nesyri, Erik Lamela, World Cup winners Gonzalo Montiel and Marcos Acuna, among others, may have no choice but to look for different work.
The Sun reports that sports director Monchi’s decision to transfer to Aston Villa was motivated by the situation the Andalusians are currently in.
At this point, neither how Sevilla came to be €90 million in debt nor why the team doesn’t seem to be able to pay it off have been explained.
After all, current La Liga champions, Barcelona, have a debt which reportedly far exceeds that of their Spanish top-flight opponents but are still managing, just about, to get transfer business done.
If there really is no other option for the club, expect the vultures to come circling quickly, keen to make an absolute killing in the market whilst the opportunity remains.
