Sevilla FC left-back Julio Díaz completed his first training session with the club under manager Luis García Plaza at the José Ramón Ciudad Deportiva Cisneros Palacios, following his arrival as the club’s fourth signing for the 2026–2027 season. The 21-year-old defender joined from Atlético de Madrid on a four-year contract after Sevilla acquired 50% of his economic rights for a base fee of one million euros plus another half-million in potential performance add-ons.
The morning session allowed the young defender to meet his new teammates and integrate quickly into the squad’s preparations under García Plaza. Born in San Fernando de Henares, Madrid, and developed through Atlético de Madrid’s youth academy, Díaz arrived at the sports city visibly motivated and eager to begin this new chapter in his professional career.
