Toni Alegre and Marcos Dorado stay to play in Asobal

Fertiberia BM Puerto Sagunto renews Toni Alegre and Marcos Dorado for the 2019-2020 season, which marks the red-and-white club's return to the top tier of Spanish handball. The Sagunto winger and the Galician pivot have had a great season wearing the red-and-white shirt and have earned another year at the club from Puerto de Sagunto. These two renewals join that of Leo Querin, under contract; the automatic renewal of Dija Cruz upon the team's promotion to Asobal on 9 June; and those of Nacho Mirallave and Guillermo Corzo, announced last week.

Like Mirallave, this will be a special season for Dorado. After achieving several promotions from División de Honor Plata to Asobal, Dorado has yet to make his debut in the top tier of Spanish handball. This will be his moment. The Galician player has earned it, and at the club we are delighted that his Asobal debut will be in the red-and-white shirt.

Nogués points out that "he is a pivot who has taken on a more defensive role this season. We are very pleased with his performance and believe he can be a key part of the defensive centre next season. He can also contribute a great deal in attack from the pivot position."

Toni Alegre stays at his home club for another season. The Sagunto player, who developed through the red-and-white academy, returns to Asobal with his team. Alegre already knows what the Asobal League is like and will once again be a key player on the wing. He is the most "experienced" of the red-and-white academy graduates. He joined the first team under Goran Dokic and has since established himself on the left wing, becoming a worthy successor to the now-retired Javier Tarrasó.

Regarding Alegre, Vicent Nogués highlights that: “His speed, ability to win the ball and exceptional vision of the game make Toni a key winger in our team. He has not had the prominence he should have had this season, but I am convinced that next season, as someone who knows the division well, he will help us enormously to ensure the team is at its best in Asobal.”
