Victor Orta could be set to haunt Leeds United with one of his first acts in his new role at Sevilla. Orta was appointed sporting director at Sevilla earlier this week having left Elland Road at the start of May.
The Spaniard spent time working as a technical assistant at the Andalusian club earlier in his career and he has now returned to take on one of the most high profile positions. It’s a step up for Orta, given Sevilla are set to compete in the Champions League once more next season and as he begins to make his mark on his new squad, he could find himself looking to familiar faces.
Rodrigo is one player he knows well, having signed him for Leeds, of course, and it seems the pair could be reunited in southern Spain this summer. Rodrigo’s agent has already publicly admitted that Sevilla would be a move that interests the forward, who was a part of the Spain squad that won the Nations League earlier this month.
