Elche already knows her way First part. It’s a marathon, in principle 42 days, excluding the “play-off”, the mats of which are built before the season. Summer work started last Monday, but this is kicking off one of the most important stages of franciverde preparation.
led team sebastian beccacece The first of the two pre-season phases that the Koç team has planned for this July kicks off. will be both Algorfaat the La Finca Resort premises, a hotel where the group will isolate themselves with training sessions behind closed doors to get in shape for the League.
Elche will train in Algorfa until Friday and this is the first stage. Friendly game against Rotherham United The English club that plays in the Championship, the second division of their home country’s championship. Scheduled in the early morning hours, this meeting will be the culmination of six days of training before returning to the city of palm trees.
But this won’t be goodbye to the Algorfa green fringes. They will return there between July 24-29 to complete another stage.. Neither Beccacece nor the leaders want a repeat of last year’s situation, where the best possible preparation was not achieved and Elche paid the price with a bad start to the season, causing Francisco to lose his job. Someone the Franjiverdes can no longer save.
market situation
The bus that takes the Elche team to the training facilities will only take two transfers: Aleix Febas and Alex Martin. Introduced last week, midfielder and defender were the first to be added to the list, which is expected to grow in the coming days.
In this sense, Elche is expected to close the transfer with Valencia. france perez, an operation that was postponed due to the interest of the team led by Rubén Baraja to get their young players to play as many minutes as possible on the pitch. Such substances Christian Bragarnik It has always been silent, so the contention between the two technical secretariats continues. At Martínez Valero, they trust the player’s progress, but they know that minutes must be earned in practice and matches, not on contract.
Despite the small number of signatures Tension does not spread in Elche, although this is a feature in which the franchiverde milieu criticizes Bragarnik’s administration. These are the usual times in current football during the month of June when it is difficult to move around in the market because there are teams still competing, contracts expire a month after the competition, and budgets and salary caps are not fully closed. .
Without going any further, Elche and the other two clubs relegated from the First Division made fewer moves than Elche, not counting the loan returns. Espanyol has not yet made a move in this regard and Valladolid has made another one. Alcorcón, Cartagena, Eibar, Eldense and Sporting also signed less.
Beccace’s blog
Beccacece currently works with 18 players: 14 players from last season, returning duo after loan (Mourad and Salinas) and two new signings. This is another reason why tensions have not spread in Elche. Despite the poor results, the 2022/23 block is reliable.
As for the needs, the green-greens have the area in the middle of the field where it is most urgent to hit the target with the new faces coming in. Not for nothing, the first two players of the last two seasons, Omar Mascarell and Gumbau, are still not on the payroll. Raúl Guti’s future is also unclear, with Zaragoza interested in rescuing him, so Febas’ landing won’t be the only landing that takes place.
In all other positions, Elche is in no rush to sign. On the other hand, something common in the “Bragarnik era”. The senior manager doesn’t seem willing to change the way he’s progressing and won’t give up on negotiations as long as he thinks he can get the best benefit for the club. With all that said, Beccacece’s main concern lies in focusing her efforts on completing the best possible preparation phase to reach the first match day against Racing de Ferrol and getting the first three points of the season in the team’s best form. This Monday, Elche is leaving for Algorfa. First stop to Primera.
