Almería have hired Spanish coach Paco López to lead the team following their relegation from La Liga. Known for his time at Levante, López brings experience, tactical flexibility, and a positive attitude to the club.

His main objective is clear: take Almería straight back up to the top division. The club has already begun planning a busy transfer window, with focus on retaining key players and signing smart additions from Segunda División.

López wants to implement an aggressive, possession-based system to dominate games in the second tier. Pre-season will be used to test out new tactical ideas and integrate young players from the academy.

Almería fans are optimistic about the appointment. Despite a tough year, the squad still has quality—and with the right leadership, a quick return to La Liga is very possible.

The board’s confidence in López shows their commitment to stability and long-term planning, rather than making panic decisions after relegation.
