Deportivo La Coruña have completed the signing of Angelino, securing the left-back on a deal that reunites him with the Galician club. The Spanish defender, who departed Depor in 2018 to pursue opportunities across Europe's elite leagues, now returns to Riazor after several years developing his craft at top-tier institutions including Manchester City and RB Leipzig. This homecoming represents a significant statement of intent from the Segunda División side as they pursue promotion.
The acquisition holds substantial implications for Depor's defensive ambitions this season. Angelino boasts considerable pedigree, having accumulated over 150 professional appearances across multiple European competitions, including extensive Champions League experience during his time in Germany and England. His return addresses a critical weakness in the club's left flank, where depth has remained a concern following their demotion from La Liga. The transfer demonstrates Depor's financial capability and pulling power, reminiscent of their previous coup in securing established talent for their promotion push.
Angelino's arrival bolsters Depor's credentials as genuine promotion contenders in Spain's second tier. The 27-year-old fullback made 34 competitive appearances last season, showcasing consistency and durability that the club desperately requires. His experience navigating European football at the highest level provides invaluable mentorship for younger squad members whilst addressing the technical requirements of modern full-back play. Depor's ambitions of returning to La Liga have received a tangible boost through this shrewd recruitment.
