Sevilla FC have submitted their first squad for the qualification round of the UEFA Europa League - due to take place on Thursday the 26th at 21:45 CET at the Sánchez-Pizjuán. Sevilla will play Újpest, who defeated Neftchi to get through the Q1 round last night.
The impressive preseason of Pejiño has not gone unnoticed by Pablo Machín, who has shown enough faith to include the academy youngster in his preliminary squad. Sergio Rico, Borja Lasso and Jesús Navas are also selected as homegrown Club talents, while Nolito, Sarabia, Escudero and Roque Mesa qualify as homegrown domestic talents.
The 17 other players to make the preliminary A-list are as follows: Amadou, Arana, Banega, Ben Yedder, Ganso, Corchia, Correa, Kjaer, Carriço, Mercado, Muriel, Nico Pareja, Vaclik, Franco Vázquez, Marc Gual, Pejiño and Fede San Emeterio.
In the B-list, the Nervionenses coach has included more academy players in: Lara, Berrocal, Javier Díaz, Yan Eteki, Mena, Pozo, Genaro and Juan Soriano.
Two changes can be made to list-A until midnight of the night before the tie, meaning that if Sevilla were to make any signing beforehand, new players could be included. It should also be noted that Sevilla can submit a totally different squad for the next round, should they get through.
