Sporting presents nine new signings with promotion as the ultimate goal

Sporting Gijón staged a presentation at El Molinón on Tuesday of its nine new signings, who appeared together before the media for the first time under the coordination of executive president José Riestra and Joaquín Alonso. According to Sport, the common thread running through all the speeches was the same: enthusiasm about being part of a project designed to return the club to the elite.

Among the reinforcements with the most experience stands out Hugo Guillamón, a midfielder from Valencia, who assured that he believes in the idea presented by the sporting director. Uruguayan centre-back Emanuel Gularte stressed that the presence of coach Nicolás Larcamón was an important bonus, although Sporting's history already made the proposal very attractive. Jorge Sáenz also emphasised the ambition: he explained that the offer was "very difficult to turn down" and recalled that from the first conversations the objective was clear: fight for promotion.

Others, such as Andrés Ferrari, return with a spirit of redemption after injuries. The Uruguayan striker confessed that "I want to give the fans a chance at revenge". Meanwhile, Konrad de la Fuente and Nikita Iosifov made clear their willingness to adapt to any role required by the Argentine coach, while Aimar Duñabeitia faces his first challenge in professional football after training at Lezama.

The presentation closed with a reinforced message: nine profiles that blend elite experience, players seeking redemption and young talent with room to grow, all united under the same word that has been on the minds of Sporting fans for ten years: promotion.
