Ramos had also assured the club that payment guarantees would be provided, but the sudden revision of the terms caught everyone off guard.

The situation changed when Ramos appeared at a key meeting with a new representative and a revised bid worth around €220 million, effectively cutting the original valuation in half.

Sevilla's ownership immediately rejected the proposal, viewing the revised terms as unacceptable and potentially damaging to the club's future.

The collapse brings an end to months of intense negotiations and leaves the ambitious takeover project in ruins.
