Real Zaragoza faces his last week before starting the league

Aug 4, 2025

There is less and less. He Real Zaragoza A key week begins for its preparation for the beginning of the Second Division next August 17. The set of Gabi Fernández He faces his last days of preseason in which he will have two more friendly before Nástic and S.D. Huesca with the aim of arriving in the best conditions to the real fire in two weeks in San Sebastián. All this while from the sporting area we are still working on the arrival of new reinforcements. 

In just 13 days, the Blanquillo club will face its first official party this course when it will face Real Sociedad B (Sunday, August 17, 17.00 hours) in Basque lands. He will have completed a series of five preparation games that will culminate with the Carlos Lapetra memorial dispute against Huesca and of which he has already played three so far.

Those of Gabi thrashed in their first test to Deportivo Aragón (6-0), beat a Mirandés yet to build (2-0) and this last Saturday they imposed themselves by the minimum of the S.D. Tarazona (1-2). Three victories in which above all has highlighted the need for signings in the defensive sector where the Madrid coach has been forced to convert players in a 4-4-2 that makes clear the compact and solid block that the Maño team wants to draw.

In this last week, Real Zaragoza will have a double match again, facing the Nástic de Tarragona (20.30 hours) on Wednesday and playing this Saturday his last test against Huesca at the Ibercaja Stadium (9.30 pm). In addition, the latest Blanquillas, Paulino and Pomares incorporations will add their first sessions with the group and surely their first minutes in the friendlies with the goal of integrating as quickly as possible and being able to add as soon as possible.

New signings

Leaving what happens on the grass, in the summers of the world of football, what happens in the offices is also important. Indian Txema and the Real Zaragoza sports area continue with the goal of bringing new reinforcements. After the arrivals of Sebas Moyano, Tachi, Radovanovic, Pomares and Paulino, there is still work to reinforce the Maña template, especially in the defensive facet.

Despite the need of the Blanquillo club, the market rhythm is slow and tedious. A situation that, as the Real Zaragoza sports director has suggested on more than one occasion, is to extend throughout August, being the 30 of that same month the last day in which the summer market is open. So there will be players who arrive at the whitish ranks with the league competition already started.
