Alcorcón signs Sergio Rodríguez for the upcoming season
Alcorcón continues to shape its squad for the next season and announced its tenth signing of the campaign: Sergio Rodríguez. The midfielder arrives as a free agent after terminating his contract with Betis a few days ago.

With Lugo, he played 11 games and scored one goal, returning to the verdiblanco team at the end of the season. Last season, injuries again hindered him. Velázquez wanted to count on him and kept him for the first team, but he did not manage to overcome the physical problems.

He went to Nàstic de Tarragona, where he only participated in eight matches, although he achieved promotion to the Second Division with the tarraconenses.
