Sevilla manager Garcia Pimienta has revealed that injuries to Sambi Lokonga and Lucien Agoume forced him to keep Kelechi Iheanacho on the bench during Monday’s 1-1 draw with Osasuna.
Pimienta explained that he would have liked to bring on more players, but the injuries limited his options.
Iheanacho, who joined Sevilla on a free transfer in the summer, has made seven league appearances for the Rojiblancos this season.
Pimienta praised the performance of Saúl, who came on to help the team in a difficult situation.
