Álvaro Fernández, who is 27 years old, has joined Deportivo La Coruña after his contract with Sevilla was terminated. Fabrizio Romano confirmed the move. The goalkeeper joined on a free transfer and signed an agreement that is valid until June 2027. The contract termination was officially announced by Sevilla. This occurred after Fernández became fourth in the goalkeeping hierarchy under coach Matías Almeyda. Fernández had not played any minutes in La Liga this season, even though his contract was extended last year. Deportivo, a club that aims for a return to La Liga, had previously been interested in signing Fernández during the summer. The player will be reunited with coach Antonio Hidalgo, his former mentor.
