Levante has made one of the biggest sales in its history. The sale of Carlos Espí has earned the club 25 million euros, courtesy of the agreement reached with Real Madrid, which has taken the Spanish forward for the future due to his credentials in the elite. The case is that this sale is the second most important that the blue and white club has made in its history, behind the 30 million euros that Colombian Jefferson Lerma left in the bank when he was transferred to Bournemouth. This income was unthinkable a year ago for a player who had not even debuted in First Division and whose previous coach, Calero, did not see him playing in First Division at the time, so he tried to give him minutes in another team. But he stayed and achieved what he wanted under the mantle of another coach, Luís Castro, who arrived at the Granota house in mid-season and gave him the alternative. It is there when the Valencian striker exploded. Analyzing the transfers that Levante has achieved, Real Madrid has a very prominent role. Because it is the club that has earned the most money for the blue and whites in its history. Between Keylor Navas and Espí, they sum up 35 million euros. The Costa Rican left 10 million euros in 2010 and now the Valencian forward has left 25 more in the bank... To this, we must add that Antonio Calpe passed from Levante to Real Madrid in 1965 for a sum of 1,650,000 pesetas (approximately 10,000 euros at the time). The official operation, sealed on June 26, 1965, also included the celebration of a friendly match between the two clubs at the Vallejo Stadium. The Betis follows, with Alberto Rivera and Camarasa, which triggered an income of 10.5 million, and the third is Valencia with 4.8 million by Vicente Rodríguez in 2000, to which we must add the transfer of Pepelu for 5 million in 2023, to which we can add the transfer of Juanfran García for 240,000 euros in 1997, with a total amount of 10 million euros. Levante has made one of the biggest sales in its history, with Carlos Espí going to Real Madrid for 25 million euros. The blue and white club has earned 35 million with Keylor Navas and Espí. Levante has finished the 2024-25 season in 19th place in the league, with 29 points and a goal difference of -15. However, the Granota club has a great opportunity to improve in the next season. Levante will play its next home game against Deportivo La Coruña on February 28, 2027.
