Vlachodimos was the only player to start for Diego Simeone's side. He wants to stay but it remains a complicated operation for Sevilla, as the Magpies have already started receiving offers.
Diario de Sevilla made no mention of the clubs that had submitted offers or gave details of the offers. Either way, it will be difficult for Sevilla to retain him.
Our opinion: Magpies must sell
Odysseas Vlachodimos is unlikely to have a future at Newcastle United, where he is under contract until 2028.
If that were to happen, Eddie Howe's team would have to sell and avoid sending him out on loan again in the summer.
Both the player and the Premier League side are likely to accept one of the offers on the table.
