Es the most grateful entity in the Second Division. Where The clubs have opted for their transfers, for their training… a kind of mutual aid and that has worked. That It’s Mirandes. It’s ‘more than a club’. It’s a supplier of opportunities for many professional football teams. In recent years he has earned this sign… and is still in professional football after being saved on the last day of the 2023-24 League.
A team that welcomes a multitude of players with open armsthat the vast majority They are ‘temporary’‘ and It serves to help this entity reciprocally, like the footballers, for their training.. In professional football. And the Mirandés is the faithful reflection of that philosophy. This season it lasts one more year in the Silver category of Spanish football. Although it has been suspenseful in that kind of ‘end’ with the Love. Well Miranda del Ebro will have professional football again next season. And if it continues with that same philosophy it will be the breeding ground for many clubs that seek for their youngest players to gain experience because they cannot give it to them themselves. The example is obvious. Mirandés began the season with 14 players on loan.

There are times when a team is considered attractive by clubs. You help him and he helps you. And in the Second Division, Mirandés has more than fulfilled that double objective. Receive young promises from big clubs for which you have made that space that they possibly would not have had elsewhere and in the process gain experience in the Liga Hypermotion, which despite being Second, has a very high competitive level. It has been reflected in recent times.
