Fertiberia Puerto Sagunto announces seven renewals

The Valencian red-and-white club announced this evening the renewal of all its Valencian first-team players, as well as the extension for another year of the left wings, Extremaduran José Manuel García “Pocholo” and Jaén-born Valencia resident Sergio Berrios, who is following the expected recovery timetable after knee cruciate-ligament surgery.

David Bruixola, Ángel Fernández, Nacho Nebot, Javier Tarrasó and captain Rubén Ruiz Casanova, together with Pocholo and Berrios, are the seven Fertiberia Puerto Sagunto first-team players who will continue wearing red and white for another year. They will most likely be joined by the junior players who have already made their Asobal debuts, namely Antonio Alegre, Samuel Ibáñez, Alex Tello and Carles LLuna, as well as several other players whom the new coach Pachi Martí plans to call up for pre-season training with the Asobal team.

Meanwhile, Fernando Latorre’s previously announced retirement as a player is joined in the departures section, for various reasons, by the remaining players who secured survival in Liga Asobal last season.

Mirko Milasevic’s contract ended and he sought a move to the French league, specifically Billiere.

The red-and-white club was unable to offer Pablo Hernández and Danil Chernov new contracts because of the significant reduction in the budget available for the current season.

The club did offer renewals to pivot Iker Serrano, backs Chispi and Sergio Valles, and defender Mateu Castellá, but the players did not accept them.

Of these four players, the only officially known destination so far is that of left-hander Sergio Vallés, who has joined one of his former clubs, specifically BM Villa de Aranda.

Thus, pending reinforcements in several positions, the 2013–2014 Fertiberia Puerto Sagunto squad is beginning to take shape with these seven renewals.
