Bragarnik, what now?
Josan Ferrandezone, a prominent figure among Elche CF’s heavyweights, spoke to the press on Wednesday after the recent marches. He analyzed the team’s current situation and the squad’s dynamics, mentioning teammates Lucas Boyé, Pere Milla and Ezequiel Ponce. The Crevillente native expressed a clear message: beyond rumors and potential offers, the group must stand united and fight until the final whistle, continuing to wear the Elche badge with pride.
How has life inside the locker room felt over the past few days with teammates departing? Was there worry or disappointment?
The transfer window has been wild for years now, with the final days always loaded with drama. The focus, for the rest, should stay on training, competing and securing three points in every match. Rumors and news are part of daily life, but the work on the field is what matters. It is up to the technical staff and club executives to address player movements and departures.
In the press room, the question is simple: what now for Bragarnik?

What if the club fixes its current shortcomings? Could Elche pivot toward a promotion-contending status?
All First Division teams begin with the belief they are contenders. Yet the real proof comes on the pitch, not in meetings or press conferences. To demonstrate their resolve, the squad must fight together in every game and train with unity.
The coach indicated that new players would be integrated last week. Is there a possibility someone might depart soon?
Here, the focus remains on daily competition and on overcoming any uncomfortable atmosphere caused by rumors. The coach emphasized that the future remains uncertain; what matters is the collective effort, defending the club, the jersey and the shield while players are present. If some leave, they leave to pursue their paths, but as long as they stay, they will fight for every ball, every drill, and every match.
Josan arrived in the Martinez Valero press room on Tuesday, marking another chapter in the season’s narrative.
How did Lucas Boyé’s farewell unfold?
After three seasons of dedication, Boyé left with a sense of gratitude and emotion. He departed knowing he had given his all in every moment, especially in the late minutes against Villarreal B. He thanked his teammates and the club for the years shared and left with best wishes for the future, hoping to cross paths in a future season in the top tier.
What are the veterans saying to the players who still take the field?
The seasoned ones stress the importance of not getting lost in surrounding noise or exit rumors. They remind younger teammates to protect the club, the jersey and the shield for as long as they wear them. When the time comes for others to move on, the squad must still give everything on the pitch, in training and in every game.
With several key departures, could the club still aim for promotion given the current opportunities?
There remains talent to come and a squad capable of rising toward the top, yet everything must be proven on the green carpet. Words can drift away like the wind; the true test is on the field, where consistency will decide whether the team can be contenders.
The match against Villarreal B last weekend highlighted the path forward because this division is tightly balanced. Any squad can beat any other on given days, whether facing a recently relegated side or a squad just promoted from a lower tier. The team adjusted at halftime following a system change, regrouped, and stayed united, which set the tone for the rest of the game.
The press room’s atmosphere continued to reflect that message as Josan addressed reporters again this Tuesday.
Could the mood be steadied after two defeats, followed by a first win and the upcoming test against Racing Santander?
Wins are essential to restore confidence and calm. The team felt the sting of losses early on, but securing three points gave momentum and peace of mind. The hope is to build on that momentum in the next match and improve further.
What is the sentiment toward Racing de Santander?
Racing Santander is a well-organized opponent that has retained core players and built a stable core. Their lines are well structured, with occasional fluctuations in personnel. The Elche squad believes that if they can display the quality shown in the first half against Villarreal B, they stand a strong chance of challenging for points against Santander.
What message should be shared with fans who are grappling with early-season results and player departures?
The message is simple: the team will give its all to win as many games as possible. The fans deserve credit for their unwavering support through tough times, and patience is required as the squad fights to achieve great things together with their backing.
