Spanish football clubs finalize preseason preparations

Spanish football clubs are in the final stages of their preseason preparations ahead of the new league campaigns.

Several teams have completed friendly matches to test tactics and fitness. Nàstic de Tarragona recently drew 1-1 against Girona, a result that goalkeeper Gaizka Ayesa viewed positively regarding defensive solidity and ball possession. Girona, meanwhile, enters the official season with questions regarding its squad depth and defensive stability, as coach Quique Álvarez continues to look for reinforcements in the transfer market.

Athletic Club is also navigating a transitional phase under coach Edin Terzic. The team is integrating international players like Unai Simón and Nico Williams while testing new defensive configurations in European-level friendlies. Concurrently, players like Unai Vencedor are weighing professional futures, with interest from clubs like Racing de Santander.

In the lower divisions, teams such as Numancia, Tona, and Andorra are concluding their preseason tests, focusing on integrating new signings and establishing tactical identities before the league begins.
