Christian García will not remain at C.D. Leganés after paying his release clause

C.D. Leganés and U19 'A' defender Christian García will not continue together. The 18-year-old center back will not continue in the Pepinero discipline after paying his termination clause and will join Independiente del Valle, a club of the First Division of Ecuador and one of the most powerful in the country.

Christian García arrived at Leganés last summer from Real Madrid C.F.'s Juvenil 'B', becoming one of the key pieces of the Pepinero Juvenil 'A' coached by Sergio Solís, which achieved fourth place in Group 5 of the División de Honor and qualified for the second consecutive season for the Copa del Rey of the category.

His good work led him to be part of the call-up of the Ecuadorian national team in the last U-20 World Cup held last May, in which he played all four matches of the Tri, falling in the round of 16.

The club wishes him the best of luck in the future, both personally and professionally.
