Last season was more than successful for Villarreal as they managed to qualify for the Champions League. The Yellow Submarine had a great season under the management of Marcelino, winning 70 points. Now their goal is to repeat that and reach Europe’s top competition again.

Meanwhile Real Oviedo returned to La Liga after some absence from the elite division. Coached by the Serbian manager Veljko Paunovic, Carbayones will fight hard to keep their place in the league.

Villarreal News & Analysis

It was a busy summer for Villarreal on the transfer market. The club had to say goodbye to one of its best players – Alex Baena, who decided to move to Atletico Madrid. The striker Thierno Barry also left the club and joined Everton in the Premier League.

At the same time Villarreal made some new signings as well. The club reacted to the departure of Alex Baena by signing Las Palmas’ attacking midfielder Alberto Moleiro. The 21-years old talent will have to take Baena’s place in the team and make sure that Villarreal will have enough creativity in their game.

But the most famous name that arrived at Villarreal is the one of Thomas Partey. His contract with Arsenal ended so Partey decided to move back to Spain. His presence could be crucial for Villarreal’s midfield at this point.

Real Oviedo News & Analysis

Real Oviedo returned to La Liga for a first time since 24 years. Now Carbayones will have the tough task to keep their place in the elite division as well – they will be one of the contenders for relegation this season, that’s for sure.

Just as expected, Oviedo didn’t have many funds to be active on the summer transfer market. The club made some signings anyway. Girona’s winger Ilyas Chaira joined the club while they also bought Crvena Zvezda’s attacking midfielder Luka Ilic. Atletico Madrid’s Horatiu Moldovan joined the club as free agent.

But certainly the veteran striker Salomon Rondon is the most prominent name that joined Real Oviedo this summer. The 35-years old forward will have to reinforce the attack.
