Spanish football preseason and roster developments

Overview

UD Las Palmas won the LXXII Trofeo Carranza by defeating Cádiz CF 3-1. Following the match, Cádiz CF manager Imanol Idiakez expressed frustration regarding his team’s transition and the need to reinforce key positions, specifically in the midfield, before the transfer window closes.

Cádiz CF has since officially announced the departure of Idiakez and the appointment of Albert Celades as his successor. While the club stated the separation was by “mutual agreement,” reports indicate the decision followed tensions regarding squad composition and disagreements over sporting decisions. Specifically, discrepancies arose between Idiakez’s requests for new defenders and midfielders and the club’s internal planning.

Celades, a former player for Barcelona and Real Madrid who has previously managed Valencia and the Spanish youth national teams, has signed a two-season contract. He has already begun leading training sessions and is set to manage the team’s upcoming match against Celta Fortuna this Saturday.

Separately, Córdoba CF reported that midfielder Damián Cáceres may be transferred to English clubs if his release clause is activated.
