UD Las Palmas will face a new challenge this Saturday against CD Leganés. García Pimienta appeared in the press room of the Ciudad Deportiva and indicated that the team is facing a "maximum difficulty match, but if we are at our highest level, we will be close to winning the game." "We have a wonderful group of people, and we are all very pleased with them" he added.

Regarding the opponent, he reiterated that "They have a good playing style and quality players, we will have to be more than focused during the match. They also have a profile of a team that is very comfortable with ball possession, although in most of the games, we have more possession than our opponents."

About the absent players, García Pimienta said, "The absence of Fabio is a pitty, he is performing at a brilliant level, hopefully, we can count on him. He has teammates who can replace him, his absence will not be noticed in any of the substitutions." "Kaptoum is in the preseason process, he is getting better every day, and he has a player profile that suits UD Las Palmas," he said about the player. 

García Pimienta stated about the team that "The football concept will not change; there are players ready to demonstrate that the team is willing to assist one another. We have plenty of variations with different characteristics but the same playing concept."

Regarding the absence of goals from Jonathan Viera, the coach of UD Las Palmas added that "Jonathan Viera is performing at incredible levels despite his injuries, he is at his maximum level, he is a leader and an example for us, and he contributes many positive things to our squad." 

He finished by responding to several names: "Nuke has trained all week, he has been very good, and if I need him, I will use him. This is the greatness of the club, we have a very competitive squad with players of a high level. Sandro has trained perfectly all week, he is now available to play if we need him."
