Sevilla midfielder Suso admits Mendiibar row: I told him I will not run

Sevilla midfielder Suso admits arguing with coach Jose Luis Mendilibar about a positional switch.

Suso has recalled rejecting Mendilibar's request to play at wing-back.

He explained on Onda Cero, "He said that if I wanted to play on the right, I had to run more.

"We talked and I told him I didn't like it because, honestly, to tell you the truth, I have never run. I'm not going to run now either. I run with the ball. I can't run the same as Fernando.

"Each one has his characteristics and conditions and each one does what he does on the pitch. I didn't like what Mendilibar said but I spoke to him and everything is clear.

"He said it to motivate. He is a good man and he is working well."
