Navarro coy on talks with Sporting: we'll see | OneFootball

Sevilla sporting director José Ignacio Navarro was asked about interest in Giorgi Kochorashvili, but chose not to confirm any negotiations with Sporting, although he did not deny that talks may be ongoing.

"Talking about players from other teams makes no sense. We are working with the players available to our coach at the training ground. We have to focus on Saturday’s match against Rayo Vallecano in La Liga, and then we’ll see. These are names that keep coming up, some with a certain degree of truth to them, others not so much," he said.

The official still left the door open for the market to bring developments before it closes: "We are focusing on those who are here, because they are the ones who will play on Saturday. After that, we will keep working while the market remains open," he added at a press conference.

Kochorashvili is indeed on Sevilla’s radar, and the club wants to sign the Georgia international on loan with an option to buy. However, negotiations with Sporting have not progressed significantly, so there is still no agreement between the clubs.

The 27-year-old midfielder is not part of Rui Borges’ plans for the new season, and Sporting are looking for a solution for his future. The player is also open to a return to Spanish football, after his spell at Levante.
