Hercules has secured the services of a player from Ourense on a one-season loan from Real Murcia. The blue and white outfit preferred this transfer path, backed by the insistence of technical secretary Paco Peña and coach Rubén Torrecilla during the signing process.
“I’m drawn to the coach’s forward style. I want to be in a place where I can feel fulfilled, and I believe Hércules is that place,” said the young Galician winger, who describes his game as primarily offensive but emphasizes that his top priority is strong defensive work as well.
The defense has stressed that the Hercules challenge must be accepted. Every match should be treated as an opportunity to win, with a daily determination to rise to the occasion even in tough times.
Hugo Sanz, who moved to Real Murcia this summer, explained his departure from the club just months after arriving, noting that the competitive depth of the squad would make starting opportunities scarce, prompting his decision to seek more playing time. At 21 years old, his main goal is to maximize his minutes on the pitch.
“I chose Hércules because the club supports my style of play. I align with the coach’s concept of playing forward, moving quickly, maintaining possession, and staying solid defensively,” commented the former Ourense player, who feels a strong connection with the coaching staff’s philosophy.
