LaLiga SmartBank lived a winter market marked by the return at the last minute of Jesé Rodríguez to UD Las Palmas, the incorporation of Uruguayan international Brian Rodríguez to Almería and the number of players who, in the form of a loan, changed teams such as Miguel Ángel Guerrero (Rayo), Cristo González (Mirandés) or Víctor Mollejo (Mallorca).
No team Since last December 6, when he left PSG, Jesé has decided to return home, to UD Las Palmas, to his hometown team. He does it for the second time after his brief passage of a few months in 2017. In between, a tour of PSG, English Stoke City, Betis and Sporting de Portugal, without any of those teams becoming established.
For the attacking point, Rayo Vallecano has also been reinforced, to which Miguel Ángel Guerrero has arrived, from Nottingham Forest, as the center forward that Andoni Iraola longed for.
For the same demarcation, Almería has been reinforced with the Brazilian Guilherme Schettine, from the Portuguese Braga, and, a few minutes before closing time, with 20-year-old Uruguayan international Brian Rodríguez, from Los Angeles FC, which will play on loan until the end of the season.
Sporting has also sought dynamite for the attack and has been reinforced with Víctor Campuzano, of Espanyol, who in turn has incorporated Belgian forward Landry Dimata, of Anderlecht.
Girona also came to the market, who yielded to central Jonás Ramalho to Huesca and signed goalkeeper Adrián Ortolá from Tenerife, whose most prominent addition was Germán Valera, winger and young promise of Atlético de Madrid, who renewed it until 2026 before handing it over, and goalkeeper Jon Ander Serantes, who was free.
Mathieu Peybernes arrived at Almería endorsed by his good campaign carried out last year at Lugo. However, the Frenchman has not had the necessary continuity and has become a luxury reinforcement for a Zaragoza that also trusts that Alex Alegría will recover the smell of a lost goal in Mallorca, which has yielded it until the end of the season.
The bottom of the category, Alcorcón, has been reinforced with four players that he hopes will give him a leap in quality, such as forward Dani Ojeda, from Leganés; Nigerian attacking midfielder Kelechi Nwakali, from Huesca, winger Carlos Embalo, from Belgian Kas Eupen, and striker Xisco Jiménez, whose last team was Peñarol de Montevideo.
Another team from the lower area, Cartagena, has deeply renewed its squad with seven reinforcements, including players with proven experience such as Argentine goalkeeper Leandro Chichizola (Getafe), Serbian international defender Toni Datkovic (Greek Aris Salónica), central Raúl Navas (Osasuna) and Georgian international midfielder Giorgi Aburjania (Oviedo).
Forward Nano Mesa, with hardly any minutes at Cádiz in First Division, changes his scene and will play for the remainder of the season at Logroñés, in which he will coincide with an illustrious player in the category, midfielder Dani Pacheco, without a team since he left Malaga a few months ago.
Another footballer who has not had much continuity in Cádiz is forward Álvaro Giménez, who will seek promotion to First with Mallorca, to which winger Víctor Mollejo also arrives, without opportunities in José Bordalás’ Getafe.
Tenerife striker Cristo González, who last summer signed five seasons for Italian Udinese from Real Madrid, who kept a purchase option and a right of first refusal, will look for minutes at Mirandés, with whom he has already scored three goals in three matches.
Álvaro Vázquez changes Gijón for Sabadell and with the Catalan team he will seek a new challenge, permanence, like Albacete, which has incorporated the Canarian midfielder Pedro Tanausú Domínguez, ‘Tana’, who was without a team and now hopes to contribute his expansion experience in First and Second.
Midfielder Borja Valle, from Dinamo Bucharest, was chosen by Oviedo to reinforce his core, while Lugo placed their trust in the Dutch striker and right winger, although a nationalized Englishman, Arvin Amoakoh Appiah, who played for Almería .
Venezuelan right-back Alexander González, who also played for Dínamo Bucharest, was the only reinforcement for Málaga, who only added a player like Leganés, who signed up Majorcan striker Brandon Thomas.
Ponferradina joined midfielders Sergio Aguza and Alfredo Pedraza, the same area occupied by Frenchman Yann Bodiger, who will look for the minutes denied in Cádiz in Castellón.
The promising Atlético de Madrid striker Borja Garcés, 21, will play at Fuenlabrada until the end of the season, with which he has already made his debut and has left good feelings in his first matches.
