Overview

  • After a 2-0 defeat at Borussia Park on August 2, Valencia CF has yet to win in four pre-season friendlies.
  • The scoreless run has amplified calls for new signings in attack, midfield and defense before the La Liga opener on August 16.
  • Young defender Copete made his debut in Germany as head coach Carlos Corberán integrates rookies ahead of the transfer window’s final days.
  • Valencia Basket will begin pre-season on August 25 and could be missing up to nine players at the start because of EuroBasket and other national-team commitments.
  • The basketball side faces a record-high 99-game season across the Supercopa Endesa, Euroliga, Liga Endesa and Copa del Rey, which it will host in 2026 and 2027.
