Racing Santander fails to meet Sevilla's demands for Peque

Racing Santander is looking to re-sign Peque, the striker who played for the Cantabrian team before being transferred to Sevilla. The president of Racing Santander acknowledged that they wanted to re-sign the striker, but also assumed that it would not be easy to reach an agreement with Sevilla.

What happened?

Sevilla paid four million euros for Peque's transfer in the summer of 2024. Now, the Nervionense team wants to continue reducing the cost of its squad and expects to close some sales after which it can continue to close signings.

Why is it important for Racing Santander?

Racing Santander has just been promoted to the First Division and wants to count on the player to strengthen its squad. The Cantabrian team has already put on the table the possibility of closing a loan that would allow the player to return to Santander.

What comes next?

Sevilla remains firm in its position of not letting Peque leave on loan. Only a transfer is contemplated, although if the possibility of letting Peque leave on loan were to be explored further, they would only accept if the club where he would play accepted to pay the full fee for the Catalan.

Racing Santander is in a good position in the standings, with 82 points and a 5-point lead over Deportivo La Coruna. The Cantabrian team is in good form, with 3 wins and 2 draws in their last 5 games.
