Spanish football clubs, including Real Jaén CF, have been active in the transfer market to strengthen their squads for the upcoming season.

In late August, Real Jaén CF announced the signing of under-23 striker Yanis Senhadji Chikhaoui, described by sporting director Juan Gambero as a “physically gifted player with strong aerial ability.” During the same period, AD Ceuta FC secured Ghanaian midfielder Mawuli Mensah as a free agent.

By the end of the month, Real Jaén CF expanded its roster further by signing midfielder Nacho Castillo on a one-season contract from Ourense CF and defender Seydou Fall. Fall, a former Mauritanian U-20 international, joined for two seasons and will primarily train with the first team despite being registered with the reserve squad.

Additionally, Burgos CF reached an agreement with Real Sociedad for the transfer of striker Jon Karrikaburu on a two-season deal. Karrikaburu, a former Spanish U-21 international with experience in LaLiga and Segunda División, arrives following a 2-2 draw between Burgos CF and Real Sociedad B at El Plantío. In that match, Burgos took the lead twice via Curro Sánchez and Álex Forés before Real Sociedad B equalized through Carrera and Gorosabel.
