Atlético de Madrid has reached an agreement with Sevilla FC for the transfer of Kévin Gameiro.
The striker will sign a four-year deal and will travel to Madrid this evening. The transfer is contingent to the French player successfully undergoing the medical examination.
Gameiro, 29, made his debut with Racing Strasbourg in the French Ligue 1 in 2005. In 2008, he signed with FC Lorient with which he would score 56 goals in three seasons, an effectiveness that would catch the attention of PSG and make him debut with the French senior national team. After two seasons in the Parisian club, with which he scored 23 goals, he joined Sevilla.
In the Sevillian squad, Gameiro was key in the winning of three Europa Leagues. In total, the French international scored 67 goals and gave 17 assists in three seasons to become one of the more destabilising strikers of LaLiga.
