After 5 years at Real Madrid where he played very little (84 matches, 12 goals), Mariano Diaz left for Sevilla FC. The now 30-year-old striker has signed a two-year contract and hopes to revive a somewhat stalled career. In an interview given to Seville Diaryhe explains that he could have returned to Ligue 1 this summer because OM contacted him but he made the choice of the heart by joining the Andalusian club.
“Marseille was there too. But Sevilla is a club that I have always loved, I always wanted to play here. For me the important thing was not money, but other things and I think Sevilla is a great club. We opted for all that. There’s a very good staff, I was very excited to come here and that’s how it happened.”rewinds the one who still scored 21 goals in 45 games in the OL jersey in 2017/2018.
