CD Leganés presented Sabin Merino and José Recio this Wednesday morning. The players arrive from Athletic Club and Málaga CF respectively and they were accompanied by the Sporting Director, Txema Indias.

The Basque, who is joining CD Leganés on a season-long loan from Athletic, answered questions from the press before putting on the cucumber shirt with the number 18: "Thanks to CD Leganés for receiving me in this way. It is difficult to leave Lezama. I have always been there, Bilbao is my home and for any kid is a dream. But I want to play and I'm thankful for the trust they have given on me. It's why I'm here."

On the other hand, Recio, who has signed for the nex four season, has also addressed the press queries before showing his new shirt with the number 8: "Thanks to CD Leganés because my case is also difficult. I have been in Málaga for 17 years. They had much interest in me and have made it easier. It's a very beautiful project with a new coach and new players. We need some time for adjustment but I hope that the season will be good."
