LaLiga is about to kick off and, as is the case every season, it does so with many new faces in the 20 teams of the competition. Many of the new arrivals have been talked about throughout the summer and great things are expected of them, but there are other signings who have perhaps gone a little more under the radar yet they could also be great additions for the clubs of LaLiga. Whether because of their promising futures or the fact they’re returning to Spain’s top division after playing abroad, these five signings are creating a buzz ahead of the new campaign.
Pablo Torre: FC Barcelona to Girona FC
After dazzling at Racing Santander, Pablo Torre signed for Barcelona but didn’t have an easy first season at the Catalan club. Now, he is taking the tried and tested road of leaving the club on loan for one season in search of minutes and the chance to show his quality. He’ll look to do this at Girona, where he’ll find a coach, in Michel, who loves good football and players with the quality that the Cantabrian possesses. “I really like Girona’s style of play and I think this year can help me to grow as a footballer, that’s why I wanted to come here,” the player stated at his presentation.
Jonathan Bamba: Lille to Celta Vigo
Luis Campos, a connoisseur of French football, has brought to Vigo one of the top performers in the Lille side that miraculously won Ligue 1 two seasons ago: Jonathan Bamba. “There were many offers, but Luis Campos was key in convincing me to come to RC Celta, as he told me a lot about the club and its surroundings,” said the player. The left winger will be a great addition to Rafa Benitez’s new project in Vigo, in what is a special year due to the club’s centenary celebrations.
