Former Sevilla coach Jose Caparros admits he has big concerns about his old club.

Sevilla are currently sitting just above the dropzone.

Caparros told Canal Sur: "We are worried. It seems like we were on a streak... but hey, Sevilla has a great squad, a coach who already knows his players and I think that in the remaining games they will get out.

"This year they will get there, but the important thing is also to prepare for next year.

"There is a saying that says that he who plays with fire, gets burned. Last year we were fortunate to be champions with Mendi (Mendilibar) and at the classification level we were also saved. This year we have gone backwards. That is why I insist: he who plays with fire will get burned, we must use all means and have peace off the pitch to achieve good results."
