Club Deportivo Leganés has seen its squad go from 23 players to 21 after the departures of Diego García and Miguel de la Fuente. The departure of these players has changed the status of the interest that Leganés has in Alex Forés, a Valencian striker from Villarreal.
What happened?
The departure of Diego García and Miguel de la Fuente has left Leganés with only two center forwards. Alex Millán, Forés' former teammate at Villarreal B, is one of them. The other striker is Gothler, an 18-year-old Danish player signed in January.
Why is it important for Club Deportivo Leganés?
Club Deportivo Leganés needs a center forward and Alex Forés fits what Andrés Pardo, his sporting father at Villarreal, likes. The presence of the sports director of Leganés is another argument in favor of Forés.
What comes next?
Forés has several offers from Second Division teams and from abroad, but Leganés is willing to bet on him. Villarreal wants to let him leave, but it won't mind if he does pre-season training under the command of Íñigo Pérez, his new coach.
