Chidera Ejuke spoke at his unveiling on Wednesday. The Nigerian attacker highlighted how he felt in his first hours at the club: "Thank you for the welcome. I am feeling very good, the last few days have been great and I am very happy to be here. I can't wait to get started and the exciting moments that I know this club will give me. I am ready for what is to come." In terms of his playing style he said "as a player I like to have the ball, dribble, be direct and score goals. I like to help the team achieve its aims." 

Ejuke also spoke about the club: "Sevilla are a big club and they have a big football culture. I can't wait to meet my teammates, I know that the project is a big one and that they want to do as well as possible and I am very excited." He was asked about his relationship with Lukebakio, who he played alongside in Berlin. "I really want to get playing to be able to get out on the pitch. I spoke with Dodi because he is someone that I knew and I am excited to experience everything he said in person." 

"I hope to contribute with my performances, showing the courage and bravery that all Nigerians have" 

He also spoke about the club's achievements in Europe: "Sevilla are a big club, they want to get back to playing in Europe. They have won seven Europe League titles and the aim is to get back there and to where Sevilla belongs." It is for that reason that the Nigerian thinks it is a good moment to come to the club now. "Coming to Sevilla is the best decision I have made up until now and I hope to play in front of the fans in the next few weeks and wear the shirt. I can't wait to get started and I hope to contribute with my performances, showing the courage and bravery that all Nigerians have." To finish after switching clubs he underlined the stability he is now looking for in Nervión: "The changes of club have happened due to circumstances that can change, but I am only thinking about Sevilla and I love the idea of stability and I know that I am coming in to help the team."
