Left-back Marcos Acuna joins Sevilla from Sporting CP

Madrid, Sept 14, 2020 (AFP) - Argentine left-back Marcos Acuna has signed for Europa League champions Sevilla on a four-year deal from Sporting Lisbon, the Spanish club said Monday.

Acuna, 28, has played 27 times for Argentina and spent the past three seasons in Portugal following a move from Racing Club.

Reports in Portugal suggest the transfer fee was around 10 million euros ($11.9 million).

Sevilla, who beat Inter Milan last month to win the Europa League for a record-extending sixth time, begin the new La Liga season on September 26-27 against promoted Cadiz.
