Sevilla sports chief Victor Orta has welcomed their Champions League group draw.

Sevilla will face PSV, Arsenal and Lens this season.

Orta said: "First, Arsenal, which has a great team, better than last year, with the signing of Rice, who will give them balance, the return of Gabriel Jesús after a long injury, with Bukayo Saka too, who for me is of the best players in the world. It is a very tough opponent.

"Of the other two rivals, in which Lens had a great tournament last year, they have lost their great player, like Openda, who has scored almost 60 goals for them in the last two years, and that is not easy to replace. They are in that process. They concede few goals and play with a line of three. In their field it is a heated atmosphere.

"At PSV there are old acquaintances like Luuk (de Jong), but they are in a process of regeneration and can also bring a good show to the group. They were very good against Rangers. We have to be effective away from home. It is a fun group."
