Sevilla FC has reinforced its squad for the upcoming season with the addition of the French-Cameroonian midfielder Lucien Agoumé. The 21-year-old player, who was already on loan at the Seville club last season, returns permanently to the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán in a deal that marks Sevilla's sixth signing in the current transfer window.
Sevilla has agreed with Inter Milan to transfer 50% of the player's rights for 4 million euros, with the option to acquire another 40% next summer for the same amount. This could total 8 million euros, the originally agreed-upon sum during the previous loan. Agoumé has shown great interest in returning to Sevilla, turning down offers from other clubs and expressing his desire to continue his career at the Andalusian club. "I only wanted to come back here to continue being part of this club," Agoumé told Sevilla FC's official media.
Last season, Agoumé played 13 matches with Sevilla, split between LaLiga and the Copa del Rey, accumulating nearly 800 minutes of play. His performance left a positive impression, leading the club to secure his signing for four seasons, until June 2028.
A reliable player who wanted to return to the Pizjuán
Agoumé's career began in the youth system of FC Sochaux-Montbéliard, where he debuted at a young age in Ligue 2, drawing the attention of Inter Milan. His experience includes stints in Serie A with Spezia and Ligue 1 with Stade Brestois and ESTAC Troyes before his return to Sevilla.
Internationally, Agoumé has featured in the French youth national teams, excelling in the U-17 European Championship and World Cup. More recently, he made his debut for the French U-21 national team under the guidance of Thierry Henry.
Agoumé's addition to Sevilla joins other reinforcements like Ejuke, Peque, Lokonga, Saul Ñíguez, and Iheanacho, showcasing the club's ambition to remain competitive in domestic and international competitions. With his youth and talent, Agoumé promises to be a key piece in the coach's strategy and a valuable asset for the club's future.
