A celebrated chapter of the 2019-2020 season returns to life as Miguel San Román Ferrándiz reaffirms Elche CF as his professional home. The club has confirmed the goalkeeper will stay on board for the upcoming seasons, completing the second stage of his journey with the Franjiverdes. The agreement with the player covers two seasons and signals a strong vote of confidence in his abilities between the posts.
Born in Benidorm on July 14, 1997, Miguel San Román is a goalkeeper known for his calm presence under the crossbar and as a commanding commander of the space in front of the goal. His career began in the renowned Atlético de Madrid youth system, where he developed the traits that would mark his style: focus, timing, and reliability. After a first green-jersey spell during the 2019-20 season, San Román returned to Atletico for a time before continuing his professional path at SD Huesca and later at SD Ponferradina. His return to Elche CF places him back in the familiar environment of a club he has already helped in moments that mattered, now poised to contribute to the club’s ambitions from the 2024-25 campaign onward.
San Román: “Since Alicante, Elche has always been a reference club”
San Román has a deep knowledge of the club, its structure, and the project it pursues. He is considered a guaranteed option for the Franjiverde goal and will integrate with the squad after completing the required medical examinations. The Spaniard will join the rest of the team at La Finca to begin preparations for the new term, bringing a sense of continuity and experience to a squad eager to build on its recent foundations. On the club’s official channels, the message echoed clearly: Franjiverdes, I’m here. Let’s go to work!
