Moving to a new country involves an adaptation process for any player that goes far beyond the football pitch. Language, culture and the surrounding environment are also part of their experience as a footballer. For this reason, since the 2024/2025 season, Sevilla FC has maintained a partnership with Carlos V Education, a centre specialising in language teaching and international education programmes.
Through this partnership, Sevilla FC’s international players have the opportunity to take Spanish courses, adapted to their needs and their integration process in the city and at the club. Each season, between 10 and 15 international footballers attend classes at Carlos V Education to improve their language skills.
This training is also particularly relevant during the integration process of players arriving from other countries. Carlos V Education offers services including visa management and student support, as well as different Spanish language programmes at its headquarters in Seville.
Language training thus becomes another tool in the players’ adaptation process, helping them communicate in their daily lives and integrate both into the dressing room and their new surroundings.
Carlos V Education’s headquarters in Seville, located in Los Remedios, is also accredited by the Instituto Cervantes for teaching Spanish as a foreign language and offers Spanish programmes across different formats and levels.
This partnership reflects Sevilla FC’s commitment to the comprehensive education of its players, supporting them beyond the football pitch and providing tools that contribute to their personal, academic and professional development.
Sevilla FC and Carlos V Education continue working together to ensure that language also becomes a tool for integration and growth for footballers arriving in Nervión from different parts of the world.
