Capel Infuriates Sevilla

Spanish sports paper, Marca, had stated this morning that Sevilla's left winger, Diego Capel, was "happy at the club".

Yet, in a strange turn of events, Capel has made a u-turn on this mornings comments by telling his agent to "get him a move to another club before the start of the season", according to Marca.

These remarks have angered Sevilla president, José María del Nido, to the point where he has gone on record to state that "Diego Capel has been fined 15 days pay, and has been asked to remain at home tomorrow and on Wednesday."

The firery Sevilla president also went on to say that "Tottenham Hotspur made an enquiry a few weeks ago. We declined to even talk with them as there are ongoing legal matters that need to be addressed between the two clubs (possibly the Juande Ramos move to Spurs).

"Another club also enquired about Diego. Many clubs enquire about a lot of our players. This is natural as we have a lot of talent in our squad.

"Diego Capel is a Sevilla player and will remain a Sevilla player until May 2012 as that is the contract expiry on his current agreement with us. Diego may even stay at the club longer than his contract expiry, who knows?"

What was the response of Diego Capel's agent?

"Diego [Capel] has made his mind up on where he wants to be playing his football next season. I can say that it will not be with Sevilla FC."

Rene Ramos also went on to add;

"There are a lot of formalities that we will have to look at before Diego [Capel] can leave Sevilla. Diego wants to progress in his profession and feels that the time is right for his training to advance to another level".

We just hope that Diego Capel has decided to come to Spurs.

As a lot of clubs have come to realise (especially this summer), you can't hold onto a player when they clearly do not want to play for you.

Hopefully Diego wants to play for Tottenham Hotspur.
