Taking a look at Las Palmas’ window so far:
Losing Pimienta was incredibly unfortunate, but atleast they replaced him with Carrion and the signs there are good.
Fuster, Ivan Cedric, Park, Cilessen, Mata, Ivan Gil, Horkas, Alex Munoz, Viti have been signed/ made permanent already. Of these I feel like Viti is the only starting level player in the top division.
Although I do like Fuster he isn’t half the player Moleiro is and doesn’t even show similar potential. If he’s been brought in as a potential replacement for him, it would be disappointing.
Araujo, Perrone are both on loan and I’m not sure of their future. Would love to hear if anyone knows. I think Araujo is less certain than Perrone but I don’t know.
Cardona was one of the nest players this season and hes leaving on a free, a terrible terrible loss.
Valles, Kirian and Coco have all been linked with moves away. I love all 3. Valles is the worst of all since he might run out his contract and leave on a free next season if he isnt sold, meanwhile Betis have offered 4m to the 13m demands. I actually think Valles is good enough to demand 13m even with a contract running out. Hope they can cash in on him atleast.
Marmol and Moleiro are the other 2 great players at the club. Surprise surprise Las Palmas would sell Moleiro for 20m and Atletico are rumored to be interested. Might help financially but he’s the most talented player to come out of their academy for a while. Luckily Marmol hasn’t been linked with a move away. I thought he’d be a perfect signing for Girona but they went for Krejci so it appears he’ll stay for now since I haven’t seen rumours as of now.
Overall it appears Las Palmas want to fix their financial troubles, not take any risks and settle back into the second division. There seems to be very little ambition at the club.
I think there has been some very smart recruitment, a great team was built and they played great football. I admire their principles and I like a lot of their players. I feel like LaLiga is better with Las Palmas and want them to stay. But even with these shrewd signings I don’t know if they can stay up. They don’t have a single top division attacker imo.
Feel free I would say!
