Sevilla and Inter 'honor' Banega's European adventure

They couldn't have prepared it better: Éver Banega will leave European football honored by Sevilla and Inter, the last two teams on an adventure on the other side of the pond that began for him almost 13 years ago, in January 2008, when he arrived at Valencia from Boca Juniors, he changed 18 million euros. Éver was not yet 20.

Months later the team che He yielded to Atlético de Madrid to play the 2008-2009 there. He did not stay at the Calderón and at Mestalla he never had the confidence of the coaches. After another six-month assignment at Newell's, in his native rosario, in the summer of 2014 Monchi saw a bargain in his signing and for 2.5 million he took him to Sevilla, where Unai Emery was waiting for him, who already had him as a Valencian player. The Basque coach trusted him from the beginning and Banega began to give Nervión the best years of his sports career. He won two Europa Leagues (the third in three years for Sevilla) but his contract expired in 2016 and he went precisely to Inter.

In Milan he was not happy. He did not adapt to the city, nor to the way of playing Italian football, nor to the team … And after a season, at Sánchez Pizjuán they saw the possibility of rescuing him in exchange for 7 million. It was worth them. In three more seasons, he has continued to rule the Nervionense midfield and wants to put the finishing touches to his Sevilla career with one more title, on Friday, in Cologne. Then he will go to Al Shabab in Saudi Arabia.
