Hugo Guillamón, a 26-year-old Spanish midfielder, is set to become a Sporting Gijón player in the coming hours. He will travel to Gijón to formalize his signing, bolstering the midfield under coach Nicolás Larcamón. The transfer was led by agent Salomon Behar after Guillamón terminated his contract with Croatian club Hadjuk Split. Guillamón, a Valencia youth product, played nearly 150 matches for the Che team and earned three caps for Spain, including a spot in the 2022 World Cup squad. He left Valencia after Corbalán's arrival relegated him, then spent last season at Hadjuk Split (26 appearances). Sporting had strong reports on his potential and experience, wary of First Division interest, but Guillamón was convinced by the project. He is expected to be available for upcoming friendlies, while winger Konrad de la Fuente may also join soon. Jonathan Dubasin has already departed for Osasuna.
Source report
Hugo Guillamón is expected to become a Sporting de Gijón player in the coming hours. The 26-year-old midfielder is scheduled to travel to Gijón to formalise his signing, becoming the club's latest addition to strengthen the midfield.
The operation, first reported by La Nueva España, has been led by Salomon Behar, who reached an agreement with the player after Guillamón terminated his contract with Croatian side Hajduk Split to join Nicolás Larcamón's squad.
Strong Reports from Mareo
At Sporting's Mareo training ground, the club held strong reports on a player who still possesses great potential and extensive experience in Spanish football. The Gijón club was cautious that a First Division team might interfere in the negotiations, which had been ongoing for weeks.
That has not materialised, and the player—convinced by Sporting's sporting project—will be officially announced as a red-and-white signing in the coming hours.
Career Background
Guillamón arrives at Sporting after his first stint abroad with Croatian club Hajduk Split. Previously, he had only played for Valencia, where he came through the youth ranks and made his debut at a young age, becoming one of the most promising prospects at the Mestalla club in recent years.
With Valencia, he accumulated nearly 150 appearances, playing a significant role within the team. His performances earned him a debut for the Spanish national team, where he played three matches and was selected by Luis Enrique for the 2022 World Cup squad.
The arrival of Corbalán on the Valencia bench relegated Guillamón to a more secondary role, leading to his departure to Hajduk Split last summer. With the Croatian side, he played 26 matches last season. Now, after his European adventure, he has decided to return to Spain with Sporting de Gijón.
