Sevilla ‘to weigh’ Saudi bid for Lucien Agoumé as player resists exit | OneFootball

Sevilla are assessing an offer worth more than 25 million euros for Lucien Agoumé, although the midfielder is not currently minded to leave Nervión.

Cadena SER reports that the bid from Saudi football is between 25 and 30 million euros, a potential summer-defining sale that could reshape Sevilla’s plans.

Zona Mixta states that Agoumé’s representative, Niang Djibril, visited the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán at the weekend to discuss the situation and relayed the proposal. The player has yet to accept a move.

Sevilla need to generate funds to finalise their squad. The club believe a sale of this size would ease the books and enable several moves before the window closes, and are trying to persuade Agoumé to consider an exit.

El Pespunte reports that Inter Milan still hold 10% of Agoumé’s rights, so that share would go to the Italian club in any deal. A fee close to 30 million would remain highly lucrative.

Agoumé joined on loan from Inter in January 2024 after time with Sochaux, Spezia, Stade Brestois and Troyes. Sevilla made the move permanent that summer, tying him down until 2028.

He has brought balance, ball recovery and physical presence more than attacking output, becoming a regular option despite some dips. The decision now rests with player and club as the window approaches its finale.
