# 2023–24 Sevilla FC season

The 2023–24 season was Sevilla Fútbol Club's 134th season in existence and 23rd consecutive season in La Liga. They also competed in the Copa del Rey, the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Super Cup.
Sevilla suffered a poor first half of the season, being eliminated in the Champions League group stage without a single win and languishing in the lower half of the league table, leading to the sackings of two managers (first José Luis Mendilibar and then Diego Alonso) before the new year. The club would finish the season in 14th, its worst placing since gaining promotion to the top flight in the 2000–01 campaign. Sevilla also failed to qualify for any European competition for the first time since 2002–03.
