Overview

• Levante sealed Unai Vencedor on loan from Athletic and made Etta Eyong’s transfer official, with sporting director Héctor Rodas clarifying Villarreal holds only matching rights rather than a buyback.
• Real Sociedad presented Carlos Soler and Yangel Herrera and kept Umar Sadiq after rejecting a Valencia loan, with Jokin Aperribay saying the striker turned down most other offers as Sadiq and Álvaro Odriozola remain registered for now.
• Athletic Club completed Aymeric Laporte’s return from Saudi Arabia after difficult talks, reinforcing a defense hit by injuries and Yeray Álvarez’s suspension.
• CD Mirandés finished with an unusually large 24‑player squad as sporting director Alfredo Merino called the market competition “atroz” and noted the club’s reliance on wages discipline and rights of first refusal over costly transfers.
• Celta Vigo ended the window without the creative midfielder sought by Claudio Giráldez, closing with five additions and targeting another attempt in January.
