Alex Pozzer will remain a red-and-white player

The Brazilian pivot at Fertiberia Puerto Sagunto has signed a one-year renewal with the red-and-whites

The Brazilian pivot, who has been called up for the Pan-American tournament and hopes to compete in the Olympic Games afterwards, has fulfilled the difficult mission of making people forget Nacho Plaza. Although his attacking impact has been lower than that of the player from Ciudad Real, now in Germany, Pozzer has established himself as one of the defensive pillars. With one match remaining, he is also the player with the highest shooting percentage among the red-and-whites, according to the official Asobal statistics, with 68 goals and an 81% success rate.

Vice-president Carlos Argente says “retaining Alex is like making a major signing for the squad. Unfortunately, we are unable to retain our professional franchise players, so we are delighted that Pozzer is staying here for another year”

Alex Pozzer, for his part, acknowledges that “the renewal was very easy because I feel very comfortable here and I am excited about the good project for next year”. The Brazilian is so enthusiastic and motivated that he continues “talking about Europe may be too much, but we do have to aim a little higher than this season and finish among the top eight”.

Pozzer also notes that “I am happy, although an injury kept me out for a while. As for the team, the first half of the season was very bad and the second was very good. I think the players came together more and the team’s character changed”.

Alex maintains that  “everything has gone very well, almost perfectly” and especially highlights the supporters, whom he already knew because he had played at the Ovni before, for their ability to create a great atmosphere in the sports hall”.

Carlos Argente concludes “the club continues to work on shaping the squad, which is well advanced both in renewals and in some potential signings, and we will surely continue announcing good news shortly”.
