Salvador "Salva" Sevilla López (born 18 March 1984) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Berja, Province of Almería, Andalusia, Sevilla finished his development with local club Polideportivo Ejido. He made his professional debut on 12 October 2003, starting in a 2–2 away draw against Ciudad de Murcia in the Segunda División.[2]

Sevilla was loaned to Atlético Madrid in summer 2004, but only appeared for its B and C sides. The following year he joined another reserve team, Sevilla Atlético also of the second division.[3]

On 10 July 2008, Sevilla moved to UD Salamanca in the same league.[4] He scored a career-best 11 goals in his second season,[5][6] and joined Real Betis shortly after.[7]

In his first year with the Verdiblancos, Sevilla contributed three goals in 33 matches to help his team to return to La Liga after a two-year absence.[8] He made his top-flight debut on 27 August 2011, featuring 86 minutes of the 1–0 win at Granada CF.[9]

Sevilla scored his first goal in the Spanish top tier on 18 September 2011, through a penalty kick in a 3–2 away victory over Athletic Bilbao.[10] His second came in the same fashion against Real Zaragoza (4–3 win, home),[11] and he finished the campaign with 19 starts and 1,446 minutes of action as Betis retained their league status.[12]

On 13 March 2014, in only his seventh career game in the UEFA Europa League, Sevilla came on as a second-half substitute for Rubén Castro in the round-of-16 tie against former club Sevilla FC, and netted the last goal in the 2–0 away win.[13] He signed a three-year contract with RCD Espanyol as a free agent in the summer,[14] scoring the first goal of 2015–16 which was the game's only one at home against Getafe CF.[15]

On 28 August 2017, 33-year-old Sevilla joined RCD Mallorca of Segunda División B on a free transfer.[16] He was an undisputed starter for a side that achieved two consecutive promotions under Vicente Moreno,[17] culminating with the 3–0 defeat of Deportivo de La Coruña on 23 June 2019 in the play-offs to overcome a 2–0 deficit from the first leg, with him scoring in the 62nd minute.[18]

On 28 May 2022, Sevilla agreed to a one-year deal at Deportivo Alavés, recently relegated to division two.[19]

Personal life

[edit]

Sevilla's older brother José Antonio was also a footballer. A central defender, his most notable club was Poli Ejido.[20][21]
