Jesus Corona delighted playing for Sevilla coach Lopetegui again

Jesus Corona is delighted with his move to Sevilla.

The former Porto midfielder was presented to the local media and fans yesterday, having featured in the Copa del Rey defeat to Real Betis.

"I have many emotions in my stomach, very positive. Very happy to be here and to have played the first few minutes," said Corona.

"Thank God I have had to participate in some derbies. It was not the way to start, perhaps with the wrong foot. It was a very strange subject, it is the feeling that we all have. The derby is over. The team is united and we are going to fight in the future. And that's where we're looking."

Corona was signed by Sevilla coach Julen Lopetegui for Porto and added: "When a player is valued in this way by the coach, the only thing left for him is to restore confidence. A year and a half ago I already knew that they loved me. I have had talks with him during this time. That made my desire to come stronger here."
