Seville, Spain – Sevilla have completed the signing of midfielder Sebastian Cristoforo from Uruguayan club Atletico Penarol, the La Liga outfit announced on Monday.
Cristoforo, 19, makes the move from his native Uruguay for a reported 2.25 million Euro transfer fee after putting pen to paper on a new five-year contract.
"I have arrived at a big club in Sevilla," Cristoforo told the club's official website. "This is a great opportunity for me, I am very happy and I can't wait to start."
