The page vamosmisevillafc.com, which provides the latest information related to the Andalusian club, announced that “Sevilla and Marius Marin have reached an agreement“Grande” spoke about the transfer and said that he was contacted by representatives of the Spanish club, to whom he gave positive references about Marius Marin.
“A very good transfer! A huge step for him. I have no doubts! The scouts at Sevilla asked me and I spoke to them about him. I told them it was the right thing to do. Sevilla would have a very good player in the midfield who is excellent at passing, rebounding and so on. It would have more quality. I am very happy for Marius Marin.
Sevilla is looking for such a player, he is also a Romanian international. I think it fits perfectly into what the people there want, it's their style. It is sensational for Sevilla that he comes free of contract. It's a club that is now facing big financial problems, but Marius Marin will meet a fantastic audience there.
I hope that Sevilla will not be relegated, but those from Pisa have long been relegated to the second division in Italy. On the other hand, you cannot compare the two clubs”, said Gică Craioveanu, according to prosport.ro.
