Two Saudis in Spain: the promotion of the Al-Jaarafi brothers at Sevilla

Promotion of the two brothers to Sevilla C for the 2026-2027 season

Brothers Abdullah and Khalid Al-Jaarafi turned out for Sevilla D last season. Now they've earned a step up, joining the side that competes in the Spanish fifth division (Tercera RFEF).

Both will stay at Sevilla for the 2026-2027 campaign, their second with the club, and a promotion to Sevilla C awaits before the new season kicks off.

For the past few weeks, the pair have trained under head coach Marco Garcia as they prepare for life in the Spanish fifth division.

The Al-Jaarafi brothers stood out in their debut season, shining for Sevilla D, the club's international team set up as part of the Sevilla academy project.

Impressive displays under Oscar Olumo earned them another rung on the ladder. They now begin competing at the fifth level of Spanish football with Sevilla's second reserve team.
