Lucien Agoume admits choosing Sevilla over Marseille

Lucien Agoume is delighted joining Sevilla.

The midfielder arrives on-loan from Inter Milan to the end of the season.

Agoume said at his presentation: "I'm very happy to be here. It is a huge opportunity for me. I know some French players like Nianzou, Soumaré and Badé, so the integration will be easy.

"My teammates have simplified the first days and this morning's training for me."

"Before coming I already spoke with the coach. I understand what he wants from me, what he wants me to do on the field. The sensations are good and I am prepared to play and give my best."

He also stated: "There were some contacts with Marseille, but with Sevilla and Víctor (Orta) we had been talking for a long time and making the decision was easier.

"I have a lot of respect for Marseille, but coming was the best decision."
