Sunderland is among the clubs interested in Sevilla's 27-year-old Swiss winger, Rubén Vargas. Bournemouth and Leeds United are also mentioned as interested parties. The Swiss international has 58 caps and 11 goals for his country. This season, he has provided 3 goals and 4 assists in 12 LaLiga appearances. He was previously close to moving to Villarreal at the end of August, but Sevilla's director, Antonio Cordón, rejected their €15 million offer, considering it insufficient. Vargas joined Sevilla from FC Augsburg in January 2025 for a fee that was reported to be €2.5 million, and his contract is valid until 2029. According to reports from December 2025, Leeds are preparing a €20 million offer for the player. His Transfermarkt valuation is €12 million.
