Sevilla Players Forced to Spend Night at Training Ground by Supporters

Sevilla players were forced to spend the night at the club’s training ground on Saturday after a group of angry supporters protested outside, attempting to confront the team following their 3-2 defeat to Celta Vigo.

The defeat, which left Sevilla 16th in the table and just six points above the relegation zone, sparked outrage among the club’s fans, with around 100 gathering outside the training facility to express their discontent.

However, the protest quickly turned violent, with some “ultras” attempting to break into the facility and the bus carrying the players and support staff being pelted with projectiles.

The players were subjected to a barrage of insults and abuse as they arrived back at the training ground, with some fans even attempting to storm the facility.

Police were forced to intervene, preventing the most aggressive protesters from accessing the building.

In a statement released on Sunday, Sevilla condemned the violent protests, saying: “Sevilla will report to the relevant authorities the unusual violent attacks on its employees, players, technical staff, and management upon their arrival at the training complex.

“These attacks forced the Sevilla first team to spend the night at the facilities.”

The club’s statement continued: “Sevilla expresses its absolute condemnation of any protest that involves violence and criminal acts like those seen this Saturday. The club understands the disappointment and frustration of the fans, but it cannot tolerate any behavior that puts the safety of its employees and players at risk.”

The team is now preparing to face Las Palmas on Tuesday in a crucial match at the bottom of the table.
