Sergio began his career at Sevilla, where he twice won the Europa League while appearing in 170 competitive matches. He signed with PSG in 2019, initially on loan and permanently in 2020.
Rico made his senior international debut for Spain in 2016 and was chosen for the year’s European Championship.
Rico and Sevilla teammate, Aleix Vidal were the two players called up to the Spanish national team for the first time, ahead of a friendly with Costa Rica and a UEFA Euro in 2016 qualifying match against Belarus, but he did not play in either fixture.
