Concerns grow as League cancels friendlies due to lack of players less than 3 weeks from start of season

Getafe has generally been one of the most active sides in the transfer market in recent years, but the lack of business is beginning to cause concern at the Coliseum. Los Azulones canceled a friendly on Saturday with AlbaceteIt seems for a lack of players, as for Chain Cope.

They currently have only 17 players in their first team squad, including: Borja Mayoral, who is likely to be sold, Fabrizio Angileri, who is also willing to leave, and Peter Federico, who is currently on Olympic duty. Earlier this week, Getafe played against Real Oviedo, with a B-team striker in Nabil joined by central defender Omar Alderete up front, as manager Jose Bordalas ran out of alternatives.

Sporting director Ruben Reyes and president Angel Torres are under increasing pressure to make more additions. The new season is only 18 days, and Getafe they have four friendlies to come – in theory – against Real Zaragoza, Atletico Madrid, Saint-Etienne and Southampton. On August 15, they will face Athletic Club in San Mames.
