Eduardo Berizzo is relishing the challenge of keeping Sevilla among LaLiga’s frontrunners after replacing Jorge Sampaoli at the club.
Sevilla will begin work on signing Stevan Jovetic permanently as well as bringing Nolito and Jesus Navas back to LaLiga after confirming Eduardo Berizzo as their new head coach.
Berizzo has taken over at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan from Jorge Sampaoli after he left to become head coach of Argentina.
The 47-year-old took Celta Vigo to the Europa League semi-finals last season, where they were beaten by eventual champions Manchester United.
There is also a change at board level, with Oscar Arias replacing Monchi, who has left for Roma, and the new sporting director has set his sights on at least three high-profile arrivals, including the permanent signing of Jovetic, who scored seven goals in 24 games on loan from Inter last season.
On Jovetic, Arias told a news conference: “Nothing has changed, he is a player that interests us and we are in contact with his agents.
“We are aware that it will not be easy to afford both the transfer fee and salary, but we will make every effort for him to continue with us.”
