Marc Gual stated that he will most likely leave Rio Ave in the summer. He said he was very happy in Poland, where he scored many goals, was the Ekstraklasa top scorer with Jagiellonia, and won the Cup and two Supercups with Legia. Gual mentioned that a move is more likely to Ekstraklasa and that a return to his homeland is not currently realistic for him. He said that a return to Spain is something more distant, probably for the end of his career. At the beginning of the year, Gual was linked with a move to Górnik Zabrze, but this was found to be largely unfounded.

Spanish centre-forward Marc Gual, 30, was rumored to be joining Cypriot clubs in January. However, a move to these destinations was not possible in the last transfer window, as he had already played for Legia and Rio Ave and could not play for a third club in the same season. The former Spain U21 international has a contract with Rio Ave until June 2028, and his current market value is €700k according to Transfermarkt. In the 25/26 Liga Portugal season, he has made 10 appearances without scoring a goal.
