Copa del Rey: Reached the Round of 32

Season Summary
Las Palmas had a turbulent season that saw them struggle with inconsistency. Under the guidance of Diego Martinez, they showed promise with notable victories over top teams like Barcelona and Rayo Vallecano. However, a lack of sustained performance led to a disappointing finish.
Despite flashes of brilliance, Las Palmas faced challenges with their defense and goal-scoring abilities. A winless streak during the midseason ultimately sealed their fate in the relegation zone.
Verdict: D
The relegation of Las Palmas was a result of missed opportunities and a lack of firepower in crucial moments. The absence of key players like Kirian Rodriguez also impacted their season, highlighting the need for a more cohesive squad.
Player of the Season: Fabio Silva
Fabio Silva stood out as a standout performer for Las Palmas, showcasing his talent with 10 goals and 3 assists. His impact on the team was significant, and injuries hindered his full potential.
Pleasant Surprise of the Season: Dario Essugo
Dario Essugo impressed with his skills on the ball and tactical awareness, attracting interest from top clubs like Chelsea. While his playing time decreased towards the end of the season, his potential as a central midfielder is undeniable.
If only we could have had a bit more from: Oli McBurnie
Oli McBurnie’s contributions were valuable, but his inconsistency in front of goal cost Las Palmas crucial points. A more clinical striker could have made a difference in their survival bid.
On the horizon, you see…
The return of captain Kirian Rodriguez provides hope for Las Palmas as they aim for a promotion push. Under new coach Luis Garcia Plaza, the team is set for a rebuild with a mix of experienced players and emerging talents. The challenges of Segunda Division await, but with Garcia’s expertise, Las Palmas can strive for success.
