Colombia centre back Aquivaldo Mosquera has become Sevilla FC's latest recruit, joining the UEFA Cup holders on a 5 year contract for an undisclosed fee.

The 26 year old arrives from CF Pachuca in Mexico, having previously spent 5 years at his 1st club in his homeland, Atletico Nacional de Medellin.

Sevilla have not said when the defender will be presented, even though Mosquera will certainly link up with his new team mates at their pre season training camp in Marbella.

The Andalusian club, who are in today's UEFA Champions League 3rd qualifying round draw, have also signed Morgan de Sanctis, Tom De Mul, Khalid Boulahrouz and Seydou Keita in the summer.

World Cup forwards Ivan Kaviedes and Agustin Delgado were omitted from Ecuador's team for the Copa America in Venezuela later this month.

Kaviedes has lost form following injury, the team's Colombian coach Luis Suarez said. Delgado has seen little action for 6 months serving a suspension lifted in May for his part in a brawl in a league match.
