Laurent Blanc confirms Kevin Gameiro will leave Paris Saint-Germain

Paris Saint-Germain coach Laurent Blanc has revealed that Kevin Gameiro is close to joining Spanish outfit Sevilla.

Reports surfaced on Tuesday that the 26-year-old is nearing a switch to the La Liga club.

"I have appreciated this player for a long time, but it is his choice to leave and that choice seems to be compatible with the club's choice," Blanc told L'Equipe.

"A new adventure should start for him in Sevilla, if his transfer will be finalised."

It is believed that Sevilla will part with £7m for his services.
