Tigres midfielder Pizarro to undergo Sevilla medical

Having sold Vicente Iborra to Leicester City, Sevilla have looked to the Mexican top flight for his replacement.

Guido Pizarro is on the verge of a move to Sevilla after the club confirmed the Tigres midfielder is scheduled to undergo a medical in Andalusia.

Argentina international Pizarro will provide a direct midfield replacement for Vicente Iborra, who departed for Leicester City this week.

Pizarro joined Tigres from Lanus in 2013 and won two Liga MX titles and the Copa MX, though he was twice a runner-up in the CONCACAF Champions League and suffered defeat in the 2015 Copa Libertadores final.
