Club career
[edit]Born in Moscow with Armenian descent, Sevikyan joined Levante UD's youth setup in 2017 from FC Lokomotiv Moscow, after travelling to the city of Valencia to visit his mother, sister and brother.[2][3]
On 22 June 2019, while still a youth, he signed his first professional contract after agreeing to a three-year deal.[4] Sevikyan made his senior debut with the reserves on 19 January 2020, coming on as a second-half substitute for Álex Blesa in a 0–1 Segunda División B away loss against CE Sabadell.[5] He was handed his first start seven days later, and scored his team's second in a 3–1 away defeat of Hércules.[6] Sevikyan made his professional – and La Liga – debut on 5 December 2020, replacing goalscorer Jorge de Frutos late into a 3–0 home win against Getafe CF.[7]
On 6 July 2022, Sevikyan signed a three-year contract with Russian Premier League club Pari Nizhny Novgorod.[8] He made his RPL debut for Pari NN on 9 October 2022 against FC Torpedo Moscow.[9]
Ferencváros

On 24 April 2024, he scored the winning goal against Nyíregyháza Spartacus FC in the semi final of the 2023–24 Magyar Kupa season [13][14] On 20 April 2024, the Ferencváros–Kisvárda tie ended with a goalless draw at the Groupama Aréna on the 29th match day of the 2023–24 Nemzeti Bajnokság I season[15][16] which meant that Ferencváros won their 35th championship.[17][18]
On 15 May 2024, Ferencváros were defeated by Paks 2–0 in the 2024 Magyar Kupa Final at the Puskás Aréna.[19][20]

International career

Having talks with both the Armenian and Russian federations he stated that he still needed time to decide.[27][28] He made his debut for Russian under-21 team on 3 September 2021 in a Under-21 Euro qualifier against Spain that Russia lost 1–4.[29]
