SEVILLA FC NOW PREPARING FOR THURSDAY'S CUP GAME AGAINST VILLANOVENSE

Sevilla returned to training this morning after enjoying a day off on Monday. The team trained under Machín's orders in a session marked by the intense rain that has been hitting the Andalusian capital since the early hours of the morning.

Maxime Gonalons continues his training with the group and is in the final stages of his recovery and will soon be available to play. The team are now preparing for Thursday's match against Villanovense in the first match of the Copa del Rey this season.
