The Seville ended his stay in England with the second friendly in the Island, in the penultimate before the start of the League, with a match against leicester (7:00 pm) where Lopetegui’s team will try to forget the humiliation they suffered this Saturday at the Emirates Stadium, where they were beaten by Arsenal with a score of 6-0 and where the Andalusian team left signs of their incompetence and sowed many doubts before the beginning of a difficult period.
“We felt that we were not ready to start the competition”, the Basque coach left as a phrase in his subsequent press conference, where he remembered that the result “was painful, but it will help us learn”.
In another team, with players who did not play against Arsenal such as Papu Gómez, Ocampos or Joan Jordán, Sevilla appeared at the King Power Stadium with their coach waiting for reinforcements and with the specter of absence left in the team by one of the best central couples in Europe, Koundé and Diego Carlos. So far, only the Brazilian Marcao has strengthened the team, but the former Galatasaray central defender has yet to make his debut as he arrives with less physical speed than his teammates. He was the main casualty along with Rafa Mir, who had discomfort, where Sevilla arrived in this match reminiscent of the clash in the Champions League round of 16 of the 16-17 season, when the English team, after winning the Premier with Claudio Ranieri, eliminated Sampaoli’s Sevilla at this very stage due to Nasri’s own dismissal.
This week, a central defender and a left back will arrive
Nervionense sporting director, Monchi, promised for this week the arrival of two additions, a center back and a left back, which will begin to activate the chapter of signings with the economic injection of the transfer of Koundé to Barcelona.
The English team, with Bernard Rogers as coach and Jamie Vardy as a leading striker, did not make any additions and is now preparing for the competition, which starts this week in the Premier League.
