Sevilla signs Brazilian fullback Mariano Ferreira

The 29-year-old Brazilian fullback Mariano Ferreira will become a Sevilla player in the next few hours, once Girondins and the Sevilla entity iron out the last details of an operation that gained momentum on Thursday evening while Sevilla played its first pre-season friendly against Lorca.

After the impossibility of signing Chilean Isla, with whom Sevilla reached an agreement that could not be finalized due to Juventus' high demands (over ten million euros), Monchi went for the second choice on the list, Mariano Ferreira, who would have been out of contract next June and will leave for an estimated price of between three and four million euros.

In this way, Sevilla's squad planning is practically finished, as Emery has 22 players in the first team, with two specific players for each position. Sevilla is still allowed to sign one more player according to UEFA's regulations, but the club will now ease off and wait for the market to evolve and for Emery to identify any deficiencies in the squad, although everything indicates that another attacking player will arrive.
