Persik Kediri's management has decided to bring in Imanol Garcia, a player from the Spanish La Liga, to strengthen their midfield ahead of the 2025/2026 Liga 1 season, which will begin in August 2025.
Persik Kediri team manager, M Syahid Nur Ichsan, stated that Persik still needs players to strengthen their midfield. The arrival of Imanol Garcia is expected to further strengthen the team.
"We still need a midfielder to add more variety to our game. The coaching staff also wants that, and there's interest in Imanol's game," said M Syahid Nur Ichsan in Kediri on Sunday.
He added that Imanol's playing experience in Europe, particularly in Spanish football competitions, was certainly a consideration for Persik to recruit him this season.
