Djibril Sow will continue his career with Genoa after the Italian club announced an agreement with Sevilla for the Switzerland midfielder’s transfer. Sow, who moved to the Spanish club in 2023, spent the past three years with Sevilla before securing a move to Genoa.
The agreement was confirmed by Genoa’s press office, which announced the new arrangement between the two clubs. The Italian side did not provide further details about the terms of the deal in its announcement.
Sow is an established member of the Switzerland national team and has made 56 appearances for his country to date. His international experience will add to Genoa’s squad as they prepare for the beginning of the new Serie A campaign.
The 29-year-old midfielder’s arrival brings an end to his three-year spell with Sevilla. He joined the Spanish club in 2023 and has now been invited to continue his career in Italy, with Genoa confirming that he will represent the club.
The move comes shortly before the start of the new Italian championship season. Serie A is scheduled to begin on 22 August, when Genoa will face Napoli in the opening round.
Napoli finished as runners-up in the previous Italian championship, meaning Genoa will begin their campaign against one of the leading sides in the competition. The fixture will provide Sow with an immediate opportunity to make his first appearance for his new club, although the announcement did not specify whether he will be involved in that match.
For Genoa, the transfer represents a significant addition ahead of the new season, while Sow will now leave Sevilla after three years in Spain. His record of 56 Switzerland appearances underlines his status as a regular international player and gives Genoa an experienced midfielder as they prepare for their opening league fixture.
The Genoa announcement formally informed the public of the agreement with Sevilla and confirmed the Swiss international’s next destination. With the opening round of Serie A approaching on 22 August, attention will now turn to Sow’s first involvement with his new team and Genoa’s meeting with Napoli.
