Up to three departures have been reported in the Nasrid core, and although the summer window is closed, they can still get one last free agency signing that was once under the direction of the Colchonero coach.
The 2023 summer market is not yet closed for Paco López, who asked the board Granada CF a final signature. This would go to midfield, where the departures of Yann Bodiger, Víctor Meseguer and Pol Lozano occurred. Importantly, the Valencian coach has already identified this latest reinforcement, which is of course free agency.
As we mentioned earlier, this player had a history in the Atlético Madridalthough his stay was almost fleeting. He only spent half a season under Diego Simeone, with the Argentine coach not liking what he saw. Now, 10 years later, the midfielder has the opportunity to return to LaLiga, but this time to defend the colors of Granada CF.
Josuha Guilavogui will strengthen Granada CF’s midfield with the support of Paco López
The Nasrid coach is already waiting for the French midfielder Josuha Guilavogui, who has been free of charge since September 1st after his contract with VFL Wolfsburg was terminated. Negotiations with Nico Rodríguez (Granada sporting director) are well underway and the operation could be completed in the next few hours.
Should the signing go through, the French midfielder would return to Spain after a decade where he played for clubs such as AS Saint-Étienne, Girondins de Bordeaux and the German side. At 32, the midfielder will play for his fifth team and repeat the three leagues in which he played. However, this operation has an important objective, namely to assert itself in LaLiga.
A more than favorable signing for Paco López and Granada CF
Currently, the Nasrid team has 4 net players in midfield, 2 of which are pivot players, the same demarcation as the Frenchman. Although the Valencian coach is happy with the current functioning of the midfield, he wants to consolidate this part even further. And this is where his latest signing will have an impact, because one of the former Saint-Étienne’s greatest virtues is stealing balls.
Another quality of Josuha Guilavogui is that he can also play as a central defender in both profiles. Sometimes in a 5-defender system he even plays a little forward and stands in front of the central defender pair. In conclusion, Paco López believes that this commitment has double and even triple benefits. Therefore, the insistence is that it will be closed successfully.
