While Sevilla is walking with a more uncertain step than desired, at least there is a key figure who is willing to get fully involved in these dangerous times: their coach, Luis García Plaza. Although he has been in the game with nothing more and nothing less than the future of the property, and everything else has passed to a second or third plane, the coach has had a proposal from Osasuna on the table in recent days, which after the departure of Alessio Lisci is looking for a coach. Luis García Plaza was already an option when Jagoba Arrasate left the Navarrese club. It's a name that has always sounded in the offices of El Sadar. Now, three-quarters of the same. The Madrid coach has rejected the proposal because he has a contract in force — the penalty to be paid would have been the least of it — and because he wants to stay in Nervión. The coach wants to have weight in the planning of Sevilla. There are already continuous contacts between the coach and the sports director, José Ignacio Navarro, a figure about which the club has not yet said anything. That is, after Cordón's departure, he has not announced him in the position or ratified him. The good thing about Luis García Plaza is that he knows the 'poor market', the only one that Sevilla will have access to this summer. He wants to participate, propose names of loaned or free players and reduce the number of effective players in the squad. He is used to living summers like this, working in clubs with very limited economies. In Levante, where he coached between 2008 and 2011, he made a master's degree in player strikes due to unpaid wages, creditor contests, meetings with the AFE, cheap signings... The reality is that Luis García Plaza has not managed a project like Sevilla's, although the entity is in very low hours. Without a doubt, it is the club of greater dimension that he has directed and if finally he succeeds with four or five top players, it is normal that the year will be calm. It is worth remembering that Getafe has qualified for Europe. The level in the upper zone is not high. It has also been possible to go to the hole with 42 points, the case of Mallorca... Perhaps in the knowledge of the situation of the bench lies the advantage of Sevilla with respect to last summer. Luis García Plaza knows how to fight in such conditions, while Almeyda debuted in Spain and got lost. Until he was fired. Without a doubt, economic conditions dictate and without any money it will be complex to assemble a team that takes off.
