Sevilla have confirmed that the club's director of football Monchi will leave at the end of the season.An agreement was reached between both parties and a press conference will be held on Friday at 12:30 CET with president Jose Castro for him to announce his exit.
Following training on Thursday, Monchi met with technical secretary Oscar Arias to discuss his exit and at 14:00 CET, the Executive Committee met, without Monchi in attendance, to determine how best to deal with his departure.
On Thursday evening, following a board of directors meeting chaired by Pepe Castro, the club confirmed Monchi's impending move.
Monchi is expected to take over as sporting director of Serie A side Roma following 17 years at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan and is set to sign a three-year deal at the Giallorossi this summer.
Negotiations between the director and Roma started a long time ago and are already at a very advanced stage, with the signatures on the contract being all that is missing.
