Hercules in a Turnaround Moment as Torrecilla Emerges

Paco Peña’s claim centers on Rubén Torrecilla, the former Castellón coach who would replace Lolo Escobar as soon as Escobar agrees to terminate his contract. The transition hinges on Don Benito’s coach signing his release to join Algeciras, awaiting the outcomes of the current dispute. Hercules places its trust in the coach known for his Plasencia roots to lead the charge for promotion, though first the squad must be shaped to fit his style. Escobar’s departure has left half the roster unsettled. Torrecilla is highly regarded within the blue and white ranks, especially for how rapidly he accepts the challenge of training at Rico Pérez. The former Castellón coach is expected to bring his coaching staff to Hercules as they prepare for the season in the Second RFEF.
