He starts to move transfer market at PSG.
the spanish meta Mallorca“>Sergio Rico, the team’s third goalkeeper after the Costa Rican Keylor Navas and the Italian Gianluigi Donnarumma, arrived in the Balearic capital this Thursday to sign the transfer contract that will link him to Mallorca until June 2022.
Rico must pass the medical examination this Friday and could even participate in the training of his new team and be part of the squad for Saturday’s match corresponding to the twenty-first day of the Santander League against Villarreal at the stadium of Ceramics.
The signing of the first Mallorcan reinforcement in the winter market had been in the making for several days. The main obstacle in the negotiations between PSG, from Ligue 1 in France, and Mallorca was the high record of the Sevillian goalkeeper. Finally there was an agreement and Rico, former Sevilla goalkeeper, will defend the vermilion goal in the second round of LaLiga.
His arrival makes him Luis García Plaza’s first choice in a position in which the coach had until now the veteran Manolo Reina, the young Leo Román and the Slovakian Dominik Greif.
In the last matches of LaLiga and Copa del Rey -Mallorca is qualified to play the quarterfinals of the cup tournament- Leo Román defended the goal, with Reina on the bench and Greif injured.
The PSG of the Argentine coach Mauricio Pochettino agreed to loan Rico to give him minutes, since he had two very experienced goalkeepers ahead of him, such as Navas and Donnarumma. Let us remember that like the other experienced players, the Spaniard was part of his team between 2015 and 2017.
