Saúl García Darriba (Santander, 2000) will wear blue and white and will defend the Real Sociedad Gimnástica shield, as he did three years ago, in this 2022-23 season. The 22-year-old winger thus becomes player number 22 and thus completes the template of the Torrelaveguense team on its return to national category football.
The young Cantabrian began to stand out at Bansander during his first year as a youth, which served him to receive the call from Real Racing Club in the summer of 2017 and Real Madrid in 2018. He played eleven games with the La Fábrica team before arriving for the first time at the Gimnástica to place himself under the orders of Alfonso del Barrio.
After leaving a good taste in the mouth at El Malecón, CD Laredo, who achieved promotion to Segunda B, knocked on his door in 2020, and last year he returned to the discipline of Racing to be part of the Rayo Cantabria squad. Today he returns to Torrelavega with the clear objective of rediscovering himself with the best version of him and the football regularity that an injury forced him to put aside last January.
La Gimnástica signs with Saúl García a versatile and vertical young man with a great talent for overflow. Although it is true that his usual starting position is that of extreme left, the man from Santander is a fast and unbalanced footballer capable of managing the entire attack front.
