Swansea midfielder Roque Mesa has joined Sevilla on loan for the remainder of the season, just six months after arriving at the Liberty Stadium.

Mesa signed a four-year deal with Swansea in July after joining from Las Palmas in a £11m deal.

However, the 28-year-old has struggled to make an impact in Wales and has played only one Premier League game since Carlos Carvalhal took charge of the club in December.

Swansea confirmed the move in a statement on Tuesday, which read: "Swansea City midfielder Roque Mesa has joined La Liga outfit Sevilla on loan for the remainder of the season.
