Sevilla have rekindled their interest in striker Lucas Perez, who is keen to move on from Arsenal this summer. 

Perez had been wanted by Sevilla last summer, but Deportivo La Coruna were not willing to negotiate on price and insisted the striker could only leave if his €20m release clause was met, something Arsenal did.




Following a season of limited game time at the Emirates Stadium, Perez wants to leave Arsenal.

As a result, Sevilla are rekindling their interest in the striker, according to Spanish daily AS, with the hope they may be able to sign the man they missed out on last summer.
 


Despite being at the peak of his powers, the 28-year-old was given just 265 minutes of action in the Premier League this season by Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger.

He did manage to score a league goal however and also netted once in the FA Cup, three times in the Champions League and twice in the EFL Cup, to finish the campaign with a creditable seven goals.

Perez was an unused substitute in Saturday's FA Cup final, which saw Arsenal beat Chelsea 2-1.
