Unfortunately, the allure of playing Champions League soccer was too much for Los Rojiblancos to counter, leaving head coach Unai Emery with a massive whole to fill in his attack.Negredo scored 31 goals in all competitions last season for Sevilla, 25 of those in league play. Just how important was he to the Sevilla attack? Those 25 goals accounted for a whopping 43% of the team's total goals last season in league play.New City boss Manuel Pellegirini continues to reshape his team's roster after leaving Malaga earlier in the summer. Negredo is the second Sevilla player he has signed, having brought in winger Jesus Navas for £15 million.Negredo has played his entire professional career in Spain.
