Sevilla have swooped for Espanyol fullback Sergio Sanchez.
Frustrated over talks with Malaga for Jesus Gamez, Sevilla moved swiftly yesterday to land Sanchez in a £2.5 million deal. The defender has agreed terms over a four-year contract.
"I'm very happy," said Sanchez, "because I'm joining a famous club which is known around the world.
"To play for titles and in the Champions League is something every player strives for."
