Sevilla president Jose Maria Del Nido has lashed out at Paris Saint Germain alleging the Ligue 1 club of treating them badly during the transfer of Kevin Gameiro.

The striker was recently unveiled at the club after completing his move for €7.5 million plus addons to be paid in several instalments. 


Del Nido told the club website, " We were treated badly and that's putting it mildly.


"One problem followed another. Fortunately, the player really pushed to arrange things.


"It's the worst transfer (negotiation) I've had to work on in my career."


The Ligue 1 club however, rejected Sevilla's claims and released a statement of their own in their official website. 


"Paris Saint-Germain respect the rules of courtesy and professionalism in all negotiations.


"When it comes to player transfers, it is legitimate and normal to demand bank guarantees from the buying club.


"Paris Saint-Germain have done everything to facilitate the move and allow Sevilla to add Kevin Gameiro to their UEFA (squad) list."
