Marca reports on the finalized transfer of Kike García to Espanyol. The transfer of Kike García to Espanyol was finalized a few weeks ago, contingent on Espanyol securing their place in the league. With Espanyol achieving this goal, Kike García's move to the club is imminent. He joins Espanyol as a free agent after his contract with Alavés ended. Kike García, at 35 years old, had a remarkable season with Alavés, scoring 13 goals in 35 matches and playing a key role in the team's survival in the league. His experience and skills are highly valued.

According to Esports Cope, veteran striker Kike García, who is currently playing for Alavés, has caught the attention of Espanyol. At the age of 36, García is experiencing his most successful elite season with 13 goals, and he has a history of working with Garagarza at Eibar. His contract with Mendizorroza is nearing its end, and Alavés has not renewed it yet, as they are waiting to confirm their league status. Espanyol's sporting director, Garagarza, is keeping a close watch on the situation, with hopes of bringing García into the team without incurring a transfer fee. This aligns with Espanyol's strategy of signing free agents or loan players who can provide immediate impact and have growth potential. García, who is the third top scorer nationally, perfectly fits this profile.
