Marius Marin is one step away from signing with a La Liga powerhouse. The Romanian international is scheduled to undergo a medical next week.
The 27-year-old defensive midfielder is reportedly very close to agreeing terms with Sevilla, according to Muchodeporte. His current contract with Pisa expires on June 30, 2026, meaning he would transfer as a free agent. If the extensive medical tests go well, the Andalusian club will register him for the 2026/2027 season. Sevilla has already signed right-back Juan Iglesias and defender Arouna Sangare.
Emotional Farewell from Pisa
Pisa has already mathematically been relegated this season, and the 37th match, scheduled for Sunday, May 17, 2026, at 13:00, against reigning champions Napoli, will mark Marin's last appearance for the club.
Currently valued at €3 million, Marin has had a challenging season, suffering a knee injury mid-March that kept him off the pitch for nearly two months. He returned to the matchday squad on May 10, 2026, against Cremonese, and is expected to play in the upcoming match. Marin joined the club on July 31, 2019, and has amassed a total of 268 appearances in the Tuscan club's colors. This record makes him the foreign player with the most appearances in the club's history, even earning the captain's armband.
This is huge for Sevilla and a fantastic move for Marin. Can he bring the same level of consistency to Spain as he did in Italy? Let's hope he can take his game to the next level in La Liga!
