Jesús Navas praised Nemanja Gudelj, a 34-year-old Serbian defensive midfielder, and his role as captain. Gudelj's contract with Sevilla ends in June. There is positive sentiment within Sevilla regarding Gudelj's continuity, especially due to his performance under Almeyda. It is mentioned that Gudelj's salary should be reduced and the contract extension would only be for one more season. The atmosphere is described as positive, and what seemed to be Gudelj's final period at Sevilla now suggests an additional season. Gudelj has made 23 appearances and scored one goal in LaLiga this season. The Serbian international has 74 caps for his country and, according to Transfermarkt, has a current market value of €2.50m.
