HE Elche CF will have to rebuild the engine room for next season in the Second Division. A large number of midfielders who made up the roster for the recently completed Primera campaign will not continue next season. For this reason, the sports commission is obliged to seek a substitute player in the midfield who can bear the weight of the team’s game.

Alex Collado franciverde will not continue in its existence. Young player coming on loan barcelona did not meet expectations. He came as one of the important signings that made a difference and his performance increased more or less. He started well, dazzled in his first match against Almeria and from there his level went downhill.. He also suffered an injury in January that left him out of the team for three months. Now he has to return to the Catalan team and his intention is to find another place.

Pape Sheikh One of those who went through Elche without any contribution. Came to the winter market after the deadline as it was empty and barely played. With pablo machinethe person who approved its establishment had some presence. However After Beccacece’s arrival, nothing joined. The Argentine coach praised his professionalism in training and was kind enough to let him play the last five minutes against Cádiz on the last match day, so he wasn’t the only player left vacant during his tenure. stand

Gerard Gumbau He will also leave the Elche club. His contract is expiring and the Catalan midfielder wants to continue playing in the First Division as his performance has been remarkable despite great interest in his continuing. And offers are not missing. Rayo Vallecano, Granada, Girona and even Celta They emerged as teams interested in taking over their services in recent days.

To these three players who will leave Franchiverde’s existence, almost certainly, Jose Angel Carmona. loan player Seville He landed for Martínez Valero in January to play as a right-back. With the arrival of Beccacece, the Argentine coach tried as a defensive midfielder. However, he was injured in the first game and has not been able to play for the last three months.

Beccacece wants him for the midfield position but is unlikely to continue. He will return to Sevilla and his goal is to find a team of the highest category.

On the other hand, there are two other midfielders currently on contract. Mascarell and Raul GutiWho can leave Elche?

The Canary has a good poster in the Premier League and plans to use the clause that allows him to leave on loan if a club pays 500,000 euros for the concept and takes over his file. Mallorca and Granada are very interested and they have already kept in touch with their representatives to examine the possibility of signing.

While Guti can’t finish the season comfortably, her desire is to have a secondary role with Beccacece and to stand out more minutes and more. Returning to Zaragoza is an option their agents are considering.. Although mixed, as he has a contract until 2025, the Elche club paid five million for his transfer, completing only three of the five years he signed. In the end, he could reluctantly stay put and try to change his role with the Argentinian coach.

That way, out of eight midfielders – counting Carmona in that position – to finish LaLiga at Elche, only Fidel Chaves and John Chetauya They are guaranteed to be part of the staff for the next course.

Mascarell and Guti are not excluded as they have a valid contract, but the Tenerife man counts for Beccacece more as a defender than a center. Something he doesn’t like either.

In this way, the sports commission of the Elche club has a job in front of it because They must sign at least three midfielders.. And there’s more to come if Mascarell and Guti break up.

Camarasa and Áleix Febas escape

Many football players who were in the portfolio of the Franchiverde presence to rebuild the midfield have already fled. Víctor Camarasa accepts Oviedo’s renewal offer and will continue to play for Asturias team.

Another player who likes the Franjiverde sports commission like himself Alex FebruaryNor will it reach Elche. HE Real Madrid youth squadserved Zaragoza, Mallorca and Malagathey seem to have committed albaceteIt was one of the teams he played for.

There have been contacts with their agents. It was already in the orbit of the Elche club last January and is considered He is a football player who can adapt well to Beccacece’s game and compete with John Chetauya in the center position.. However, his signature does not look easy either because he receives offers from other teams while he is idle.

For the mid-court, Elche’s coach will give him the opportunity in the pre-season: Youth team Rodrigo Mendoza, sub’17 international. Although the club’s aim is to try to sign players with more experience in the Second Division, he was already in the last meeting against Cádiz.
