Insolac Caja 87 has secured the continuity of veteran floor general Josep Franch for the 2026-27 Primera FEB campaign, ensuring that the experienced playmaker will remain a foundational pillar of head coach Juani Díez de Acharán’s roster. The club confirmed the renewal, locking in the 35-year-old guard as a central figure in the locker room as the Seville-based side prepares for another demanding season in Spanish basketball’s second tier.
A Familiar Face in Seville’s Backcourt
Franch enters this new chapter firmly established in the local basketball landscape. Standing 1.92 meters tall and born in Badalona, the veteran point guard is effectively considered a local at this point in his career. The upcoming campaign marks his fifth professional season playing in the Andalusian capital.
His history in Seville dates back to the 2013-14 season when he suited up for Cajasol. He later returned to the city during the 2018-19 season with Real Betis Baloncesto. After joining Insolac Caja 87 midway through previous campaigns, his latest extension guarantees stability at the point guard position, where his veteran poise and floor vision are expected to anchor the team’s tactical execution under Díez de Acharán.
Roster Planning and Primera FEB Ambitions
The renewal aligns directly with the core blueprints drawn up in Insolac Caja 87’s summer planning sessions.
Next Steps for Insolac Caja 87
With Franch’s renewal officially secured, Insolac Caja 87 turns its attention to finalizing remaining roster adjustments ahead of official preseason preparations.
