How Anthony Martial is fitting in at the La Liga club
Sevilla midfielder Oliver Torres has spoken on how ex-man United star Anthony Martial is fitting in at the La Liga club.
Torres told Mucho Deporte: “Considering players of his calibre choose Sevilla says a lot about Sevilla.
“He’s shy. Little by little we’ll have to get him into the banter here. He [has shown signs] of the great player he is.
“He’s only been here for a few days. We train here at a very high pace, and he’s realised it. He said ‘there’s a lot of running here’.
“In front of goal, if he has the chance, he buries it and that makes the difference.”
Julen Lopetegui a major role in recruiting Anthony Martial
Sevilla director of football Monchi has revealed that the club’s boss Julen Lopetegui played a major role in recruiting Anthony Martial.
Mochi said to La Colina de Nervion: “It has been intense because bringing in two players like Martial and Tecatito is not easy because the competition was so great.
“Different situations, with a high market profile, but very coveted pieces of the market. We have spent a lot of time convincing and acquiring these players.
“If the Sevilla coach wasn’t Lopetegui, it wouldn’t have been so easy for Tecatito and Martial to be here. The willingness of the players has helped a lot in that sense.”
