Castellón Aims for La Liga Return After 35‑Year Wait

Castellón thrilled its supporters by beating Eibar in the final match, securing a spot in the promotion playoff to La Liga. The club achieved this with a modest budget and a squad that was not among the most expensive in the second division.

This playoff marks the first chance for the team to compete at the top level since the 1990‑91 season, a period that ended in financial turmoil and administrative setbacks. Management and coaching staff are now focused on maintaining stability and promoting young talent to cement a lasting presence in the top flight.

The achievement has reignited passion among the local community and long‑time fans.
