“The president and first vice president have aligned the direction of the vote for this point of the day”. These words have been repeated by the president of Sevilla, Pepe castro, making use of the governance pact signed in 2019 between Castro himself and del Nido Benavente, in the points on the annual accounts and the rest, having to listen to the former president from his seat qualifying as a “lie” that he could vote with his shares. Each vote had a very high number of abstentions, which They came from those actions of Del Nido, who could not break the pact signed for the millionaire compensation that he would have to face. In other words, he has not been able to vote in the way he wanted. Or they haven’t let him.
This unleashed the anger of those close to the lawyer and of El Nido himself: “I want to show that again my right to vote is curtailed with a number of actions that could overturn the proposal to change the current Board of Directors. I propose to all the grouped shareholders to abstain on this point “. The lawyer wanted to measure his real forces with the opponents in a hot spot, which was to kick out the current advisers. A war that will continue later because Del Nido will prosecute what was experienced this afternoon at the Palacio de Congresos in Seville. At that point exactly he was not allowed to vote because his shares are grouped in the aforementioned pact. More than 47,000 shares voted against the removal of the Board.
All points requested by Sevillistas Unidos 2020, the foreign investor, were rejected by the current Board of directors (removal of said Council inclusive), without the votes of Del Nido, again unleashing the wrath of the attendees, those close to the former president. An open war that was known to be harsh and bloody. Pepe castro it made it clear that the “economic responsibilities” for breaking the pact would be requested through the courts. Castro, Del Nido Carrasco (eldest son of former president Del Nido) and their partners will continue to govern the Seville ship. They have more shares and more support. But the fact that Del Nido Benavente has not been able to use his shares in the desired direction (not being able to vote freely) opens a new wound in the sports society Sevilla FC.
