Lukebakio makes Sevilla move permanent

Belgian forward joins Spanish side on a four-year deal

23-year-old has impressed since joining Sevilla on loan in January

Belgian forward Yannick Ferreira Carrasco has made his loan move to Sevilla permanent, the Spanish club has announced.

The 23-year-old joined Sevilla from Chinese Super League side Dalian Pro in January and has impressed during his time in Spain, scoring four goals in 13 appearances.

He has now signed a four-year contract with Sevilla, which will keep him at the club until 2025.

Carrasco is a versatile forward who can play on either wing or as a central striker.

He has been capped 12 times by Belgium and was part of the squad that reached the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup.

Sevilla are currently ninth in La Liga, three points behind sixth-placed Real Betis.

Carrasco will be hoping to help Sevilla qualify for European competition next season.
