Djibril Sow Returns to Sevilla Squad for Crucial Clash Against Barcelona After Injury Layoff.
Sevilla FC is set to receive a significant boost as midfielder Djibril Sow returns to the squad ahead of their crucial La Liga fixture against Barcelona on October 20, 2024. Sow, who has been sidelined due to injury, is rejoining the 23-man squad in what could be a defining moment for Sevilla’s season. This game is crucial, not only because Barcelona is currently leading the league, but also because Sevilla has struggled with consistency throughout the campaign.
The Swiss international’s return comes at a pivotal time. Sevilla has had a challenging start to the 2024/25 season, with mixed results in La Liga and European competition. Sow, who joined Sevilla in the summer of 2023 from Eintracht Frankfurt, has been a vital part of the team’s midfield, offering both defensive stability and creative support in the attack. His absence was felt in recent games, and his return is expected to bring much-needed balance to Sevilla’s squad.
Sow’s fitness will be closely monitored by manager Diego Alonso, who will hope to have him fully fit for the high-stakes encounter at the Camp Nou. Barcelona is currently in top form, making this match a daunting task for Sevilla. However, with key players like Sow returning, the Andalusian side will be looking to stage an upset.
This match could define the direction of Sevilla’s season. If they manage to secure a positive result against the league leaders, it could provide a much-needed confidence boost as they look to climb the La Liga table and progress in European competitions
