Football - PSG loans goalkeeper Sirigu to Spanish side Sevilla

French champion Paris Saint-Germain has loaned goalkeeper Salvatore Sirigu to Spanish club Sevilla until the end of the season. PSG said in a statement on Friday that Europa League winner Sevilla has an option to buy Sirigu at the end of his loan spell. Sirigu will compete with Sergio Rico for the starting job on a Sevilla side being rebuilt under new coach Jorge Sampaoli. The 29-year-old Sirigu, who has played 17 times for Italy, was a mainstay in the PSG side until Kevin Trapp replaced him as No. 1 last season. Sirigu made 190 appearances for PSG after joining in 2011, winning four league titles, two French Cups, and three League Cups. But his chances looked even more limited this season, with PSG recalling ‘keeper Alphonse Areola from a loan spell in Spain with Villarreal.
