It’s the early stages of Lopetegui’s 4th consecutive season at Sevilla, with Tottenham as our first pre-season test. The squad has been training in Seoul for a week, preparing for the friendly match in Suwon for the Coupang Play Series. The entire squad is in South Korea, minus Kounde who’s still recovering from surgery last month (or anticipating a transfer.) The group also includes new Brazilian signing Marcão, who Lopetegui confirmed will not be taking part in Saturday’s friendly, despite being in every session since his arrival. Therefore, with the exception of a few academy players, the team will have a rather familiar look against Conte’s Spurs, as no other new faces have yet to come.
