Sevilla chief Oscar Arias has cast doubt on keeping hold of Sandro Ramirez.

The Everton striker is on-loan at Sevilla to the end of this season and has spoken of signing permanently with the Champions League quarterfinalists.

But Arias says: "Sandro is a fantastic player, he has a huge future, he's very young, he has not had enough continuity to prove his ability, except in Málaga.

"With the necessary support he will end up becoming a very important player, I am sure.

"But it is true that he does not differ much from the characteristics of the other players that we have."
