Sevilla have agreed a deal to sign Marius Stankevicius from Italian side Sampdoria.

The Lithuania international right-back will be officially confirmed by the Rojiblancos should he pass a medical at the Andalucian club on Thursday.

Stankevicius will join Sevilla on loan until the end of the season with a view to a permanent transfer at the end of the campaign.

"I'm very happy. I want to take advantage of this opportunity that has been offered to me," the 28-year-old defender told his new club's official website.

Sevilla have been on the lookout for a new right-back after losing Sergio Sanchez to a heart condition.
