"He can bring quality in the last third of the pitch, dribbling, overlaps, goals"

Sevilla FC's Sporting Director, Monchi, spoke this morning at Suso's official presentation press conference. "The loan lasts until June 2021, after which there is an option to buy the player, exclusively for Sevilla FC, and an obligatory option to buy if some collective and team objectives are met, not individual".

"I've wanted to buy Suso five or six times before as a Sporting Director. It's also something that the manager wanted as he knows him. He can bring quality in the final third, dribbling, overlaps, goals from the playing as winger etc. We've been trying to do this for a while now. We don't have a player like him at the minute and he's a great addition to what we already have".

"It took a long time to get resolved because Milan wanted to sell him and then a mandatory purchase option in its entireity. The will of the player, the willingness shown by the Board and the goodwill between all parties has meant that this has ended in a good way. It has been a long time coming".
