Mateu Morey has dismissed suggestions that his transfer to Girona represents a backward step in his career, insisting he was immediately convinced by the club’s sporting project following his arrival from Mallorca. The 26-year-old right-back was officially unveiled by the Catalan club after completing his move during the final stages of the summer transfer window.
Mateu Morey Unveiled by Girona After Summer Deadline
Speaking at his introductory press conference at midday, the Spanish defender addressed questions regarding his drop down to Spain’s Segunda División. Morey stated clearly that he views the project as an exciting opportunity rather than a regression, pointing to the immediate trust shown in him by the club’s hierarchy. The full-back also revealed a minor personal detail regarding his kit for the upcoming campaign, confirming he will wear the name “Mate” across his jersey.
Transfer Window Activity and Squad Management
Morey’s presentation coincided with the close of a relatively quiet summer transfer window for Girona. The club’s only outgoing business saw Dawda Camara depart for Portuguese side Alverca. Meanwhile, club officials remained active behind the scenes ahead of the deadline, securing the arrival of Carles Pérez following his departure from Celta Vigo, with an official announcement scheduled for the evening. Management also monitored late interest from foreign leagues targeting players such as Ounahi, Asprilla, and Vanat as the transfer window closed.
Next Steps for the Squad
With the transfer window now shut, Girona turns its full attention back to competitive fixtures as the squad integrates its new arrivals.
