Spanish football clubs manage squad depth and competition
Spanish football clubs are navigating squad management following recent transfer windows. At Real Mallorca, manager Luis García Fernández faces the challenge of managing a large 29-player roster following thirteen new signings and numerous departures. The club aims for direct promotion to the top flight, but the high number of players creates competition and potential management difficulties, particularly in positions where players may not fit the coach's immediate plans.
In another development, midfielder N'tiji Tounkara, who joined Ponferradina from Córdoba, expressed his commitment to earning a starting position through hard work. Following a victory against Ourense, Tounkara emphasized the high level of competition and intensity within the team, noting that players must work hard to secure playing time.
