Sevilla summer signing Joan Jordan admits West Ham offered him 'a lot more money'

Sevilla summer signing Joan Jordan admits he came close to joining West Ham.

The midfielder left Eibar for Sevilla last month.

Jordan recalled: "When Sevilla called me, I knew that I wanted to come, I had almost done it with a team from the Premier.

"I would've earned a lot more money, but my family, my wife and my parents bet on this. My father especially.

"I didn't care about the rest of the teams and what they offered me, I wanted to come to Sevilla."
