“Two important players left (referring to Koundé and Diego Carlos), the club knows and we will try to find the best solutions for those positions and for others that we understand could be improved. We know that the club is working and will try to give us the best possible team”, explained Lopetegui. “The market times do not coincide with the competition times. When the market closed, four days of LaLiga had passed, fittingly it’s not very healthy, but you have to live with it”, lamented the Sevilla coach.

In its part, Alex said He said his first words as a new player for the Seville team in the club’s media statements. “I am very happy to be here. I have teammates with whom I play who had already told me that the club and the city are spectacular,” said the Brazilian full-back on loan from Manchester United.

Respect to Antonio Puerta

Lopetegui also wanted to highlight the Antonio Puerta Trophy: “We are excited for the first match in front of the public. Despite being friendly, there is a responsibility to be the home trophy and, above all, the name and surname of Anthony Door, his memory and the permanent tribute to Puerta ya Jose Antonio Reyes”, highlighted the Basque coach.

Antonio Puerta, Sevilla’s hero for being the player who qualified the team for its first European League final with his goal against Schalke-04 in 2006, he died on August 28, 2007 of heart problems, while José Antonio Reyes, another Nervión icon, lost his life on June 1, 2019 in a traffic accident.
