Sevilla left threadbare during break, the seven players Luis García Plaza loses | OneFootball

Sevilla will work with a reduced group during the extended international break, as seven regulars head off with their countries, including Nico Guillén with Spain Under-19s.

According to Zona Mixta, the absences will shape Luis García Plaza’s plans over a 23-day pause. Sevilla enter the break fifth in LaLiga despite defeat to FC Barcelona.

Both senior goalkeepers are away. Odysseas Vlachodimos is set for Greece’s opening UEFA Nations League fixtures, while Fran González could see his first minutes of the season with Spain Under-21s.

Gabriel Suazo, Chile’s captain, has three friendlies as his national team rebuilds after missing the last World Cup. Kochorashvili is on Nations League duty against Northern Ireland, Ukraine and Hungary.

The window also brings first call-ups for Arouna Sangante and Robbie Ure. Sangante links up with Senegal after a start in which he has not yet reached top form, and Ure steps up to Scotland’s senior side after youth levels.

Guillén will be with Spain Under-19s under Paco Gallardo from 21 to 24 September, missing part of Sevilla’s mini pre-season. The club are planning six matches in under a month, five in LaLiga and one in the Copa del Rey, plus the Trofeo Antonio Puerta on 2 October against Aston Villa and Unai Emery.

The staff hope to regain options before domestic action resumes. Rubén Vargas, Marcao and Stassin should be fully available by then.
