Albacete is experiencing a summer of changes and surprises. After years of seeking to strengthen its squad with quality players, the club from La Mancha has achieved a historic signing: Jesús Vallejo, defender from Real Madrid.
This move has attracted everyone's attention, but the truth is that it's not the only one. Albacete has once again fished at Bernabéu, and this time, they've also secured another young talent from the white club.
Jesús Vallejo's signing: An opportunity for both
Jesús Vallejo, a center-back with experience in the elite of Spanish soccer, arrives at Albacete after not getting many minutes at Real Madrid. Last season, Vallejo was relegated to a secondary role in Carlo Ancelotti's squad, and his future in the capital was increasingly outside rather than inside the club. This opened a door to his departure, and Albacete quickly took advantage of it.
The club from La Mancha has made good use of the market, achieving a signing that strengthens its defense with quality and experience. Vallejo, at 27 years old, has the maturity to lead the backline of a team with great aspirations like Albacete. In addition, his experience in international competitions and his time at several top-level clubs make him a top-level reinforcement.
Another signing from Madrid? Lorenzo Aguado joins the squad
But the surprise doesn't end there. According to journalist David De las Lamas, Albacete has reportedly finalized the addition of another Real Madrid player.
This time, it's Lorenzo Aguado, a 22-year-old right-back who has been part of Madrid's youth academy. The addition of the young footballer seems to be practically finalized, only the signature is missing to make it official.
Despite his young age, Aguado has been one of the footballers who has shown his potential in Real Madrid's reserve team. His departure from the white club is an opportunity to show his talent in a team with more minutes and continuity. Albacete secures with him a right-back with great potential, who will adapt well to the team's play style.
Albacete, a bet on the future
With these signings, Albacete shows that its project is more alive than ever. Through smart moves in the market, the team has known how to take advantage of the opportunities that have arisen. Vallejo and Aguado are not only two important names for the present, but also a long-term bet.
These signings reflect Albacete's ambition to keep growing and consolidate itself in Spanish soccer. Now, with two new reinforcements from Real Madrid, the club is preparing for a season full of expectations.
