Athletic Club are well on course to qualify for next season’s Champions League, and should that happen, they will have money to spend in the summer. Ernesto Valverde’s squad has shown itself to be very strong in recent months, although there is no doubt that extra quality can be added.
Girona lost several key players during the summer, including the likes of Aleix Garcia, Savio and Artem Dovbyk. Someone that they were able to retain the services of was Ivan Martin, despite reported interest from Athletic Club.
Napoli are evaluating the situation surrounding Girona midfielder Ivan Martin, who is available on a €12m release clause this summer, according to reports
Girona are set for major squad turnover this summer, with the vultures circling and many loanees returning to their parent clubs. They have received some good news regarding midfielder Ivan Martin though.
Girona have been one of the revelations of the season in La Liga this year, and already last season, the vultures were circling. Sporting Director Quique Carcel will have his work cut out trying to hang onto their players, and one which is attracting interest is Ivan Martin.
Given their remarkable season up to now, it’s highly expected that numerous Girona players will be the subject of significant transfer speculation during the summer.
Girona have finished the first half of the season level on points with Real Madrid, following an historic first victory over Atletico Madrid on Wednesday night, gifted to them Ivan Martin’s stoppage time winner.
