River wants to raise its offer for Montiel and is getting closer to reaching an agreement with Sevilla

He Seville remains immersed in the search for players who will increase the level of the squad while also managing future departures from the team that allow the arrival of these new names, as has happened with Rubén Vargas, the first winter reinforcement of the red and white team, who He will be presented on Tuesday as a new Sevilla player after having already added some minutes against Valencia last Saturday in the tie of the 19th league matchday.
