The 1992-93 campaign delivered a sensational and turbulent season for Sevilla as Los Nervionenses secured a solid 7th-place finish in La Liga under the watch of manager Carlos Salvador Bilardo. The season was defined by the legendary, yet often tumultuous, presence of global icon Diego Maradona, who took the emerging Croatian star Davor Šuker, whose 13 goals were vital, under his wing. It was a memorable year that saw the side defeat rivals Real Madrid and featured the burgeoning talent of Diego Simeone, remaining a unique chapter in the club's history.
