Sevilla coach Flores happy with Veliz introduction

Tottenham loanee Alejo Veliz is getting a chance to show his quality during his spell at Sevilla in Spain.

Veliz made his debut for the club during a 0-0 draw against Valencia in La Liga on Saturday.

The 20-year-old came off the bench in the 86th minute and nearly scored for his loan team.

Veliz will be hoping that he can push on in the coming games, with manager Quique Sanchez Flores stating pre-game: "Alejo Veliz has trained in an extraordinary way this week.

“He is tremendously hungry and does everything we ask of him.

“He will surely be ready for [the game]. He's a boy who is going to mark a clear path of what the team needs again."
