St. Croix SC Overview

The RFEF Competition Committee has handed down a significant punishment to Sevilla head coach Matias Almeyda following the chaotic scenes that unfolded during last Saturday's La Liga clash against Alaves. The Argentine tactician has been hit with a seven-game ban after being sent off and subsequently engaging in a heated confrontation with referee Galech Apezteguia. While the automatic suspension for the red card accounts for the start of the penalty, the committee decided to add a further six matches due to the gravity of the incidents that followed his dismissal.

Neal Maupay has gotten involved with some social media shenanigans with new club Sevilla, as he was pictured putting a colleague in a headlock over historic tweets that mocked him. The ex-Brighton man has joined the Spanish club on loan from Marseille until the end of the season. Sevilla's official X account had posted a joke at Maupay's expense during a pre-season friendly in August.

Real Madrid legend Sergio Ramos has taken a huge step towards completing a takeover of his boyhood club. The World Cup-winning defender has not announced his retirement from playing, with a new team being sought at 39 years of age, but he does form part of a consortium that are bidding to take control of La Liga heavyweights at Sevilla, where he began his career.

Dele Alli has been a free agent since being released by Serie A side Como in September 2025, but he reportedly has four offers from La Liga clubs on the table. The former Tottenham and Everton midfielder has been working on keeping himself in shape and may decide to take on a Spanish adventure after seeing a troubled Italian job cut short.
