Sergio Rico

left Paris Saint-Germain on a loan deal with La Liga club Mallorca. The 28 years old goalkeeper agreed to a short loan until the end of the season. Sergio started his professional career at his hometown team Sevilla. Rico made his debut for the senior team in 2014. He made his European debut days after that and eventually ended the season with 37 appearances.

Rico won two consecutive Europa League titles as Sevilla goalkeeper in 2014-15 and 2015-16. Rico was capped once for Spain's national team in 2016 during a friendly match against South Korea. In 2017-18, his spot as the main goalkeeper was challenged by David Soria. Rico was loaned to Premier League club Fulham for the 2018-19 season. He appeared in 29 Premier League games for Fulham. After the West London club was relegated, Sevilla loaned him to Paris Saint-Germain. The French side had the option to buy Rico out in the season-long loan deal.

PSG signed him as the substitute for Keylor Navas and he had a total of 10 appearances in the first season. PSG made his deal permanent with a €6 million buyout clause. Rico played in 10 Ligue 1 games during the 2020-21 season, meanwhile, PSG signed Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma for the 2021-22 season. As the third option goalkeeper, Rico was not likely to play for PSG and it was time to go on another loan. Returning to La Liga may help Rico restore his form.
