Juan Muñoz, ‘reinforcement’ of Leganés two weeks before the start

Jose Luis Marti will count for his third week of full training in front of Leganés with the reinforcement of Juan Muñoz. The Sevillian forward will join the group 21 days after the start of the preseason due to his assignment to Almeria, with whom he played until August 16, the date on which the Girona he eliminated the Andalusians and began his summer vacation. Two weeks later, the striker joins the team dynamics, just in time to be able to test himself in one of the last two friendlies before starting the course.

He Leganes will receive on Wednesday, September 2 at Vallecano Ray in Butarque at 19:30 (this duel was unconfirmed by schedule) and will play against Albacete in the Andrés Iniesta Sports City Saturday 5 at 7:00 p.m. Maybe in is too early for Muñoz make an appearance in the first game, but not in the second, where he could already have minutes thinking about the team's league debut on his return to Second.

Almería did not exercise the option of one million

Juan Muñoz come back to Leganes after, as AS counted, the purchase option that the Almeria for about one million euros, it expired at the end of June, the date on which it was foreseen by contract that the Andalusians would decide to make it effective or not. Even on the assumption that the last game of Almeria was understood as the end of the season, after losing to him Girona There was also no execution of the player's purchase, which returns to Butarque to, presumably, have a relevant role.

For now it will be, along with Sabin merino, the only striker in the first squad who has Marti under your command. Manu Garrido, forward of Leganes B, he exercises with the elders, but does not have a record with them and his continuity as one of the group seems, for now, complicated.

Bought a year ago at Alcorcón for about one million euros and with a contract until 2023, Juan Muñoz had a good year in the Almeria last year. He played 35 games and scored 9 key goals for the Andalusians to play in the promotion play-off.

Muñoz hinted in an interview that he would have loved to continue in The Mediterranean Games, but without the Almeria acquired it, that option becomes complex. He Leganes count on him for your staff. It is expected that, with his reinstatement, Marti In the next few days tell him your intentions and what role you will give him in the season that is about to begin.
