CD Castellón takes on a new level test this Wednesday in their preseason campaign. Pablo Hernández's side faces Girona at 6:30 PM at the Catalan team's training ground in what will be their third preseason friendly. The match will be played behind closed doors, but fans can follow it live on Esport3.
The white-and-blacks, in the first of two scheduled matches during their Olot training camp, arrive with positive momentum after winning their first two fixtures. In their debut, they defeated Sabadell 2-0, and last Saturday they comfortably beat a First Division rival, Valencia, 1-2.
Will Nzanza and Gala Debut?
The white-and-black coach will continue using the training camp to distribute minutes, run tests, and advance team building. In addition to Fran Castillo, David Nzanza and Antonio Gala could also make their debuts. The two latest arrivals have not yet played in the first two matches. In the case of the Malaga native, he had been unavailable due to minor discomfort but is now apparently available.
Antonio Gala Reflects on His Arrival
Italian Antonio Gala shared his thoughts on his first days at Castellón, focusing on making his debut:
"I am very happy to be here because everything is new for me and I hope to help. Yes, I hope the coach gives me some minutes to show my quality."
He also praised the team atmosphere:
"I am having fun with everyone and they are giving me a good welcome, although I am still learning Spanish."
Finally, he noted his adaptation process:
"In Italy they work differently, but I am ready to reach my best physical condition."
