Overview
- Leganés confirmed the sacking of head coach Igor Oca after a run of poor results left the club facing a one-off survival test.
- The team has taken just one of the last 18 available points, a slump the club explicitly cited as the reason for ending Oca's tenure.
- The club announced the hiring of Carlos Martínez to lead the side in the upcoming fixture; Martínez previously coached Leganés at the end of the 2022–23 season and was working in Saudi Arabia most recently.
- The match against CD Mirandés will determine Leganés’ permanence in the Segunda División because a Mirandés win would drop Leganés out of the professional tiers.
- The late change creates a short-term tactical and emotional challenge for players and staff and could either galvanize a final push for survival or further unsettle preparation in the run-up to the decisive game.
