The club is led by Spanish coach Michel Gonzalez, who took over last October, succeeding Englishman Robbie Fowler, and led the team to the Yellow League first division title, ensuring promotion to the professional league.
Nacho is not the only deal that Al-Qadisiyah concluded this summer, as Belgian goalkeeper Quinn Casteels joined from Wolfsburg, Germany, and Uruguayan midfielder Nahitan Nandez.
The club also has Spanish players such as goalkeeper Joel Robles, who could leave after Castells’ arrival, and defender Alvaro Gonzalez, whose contract renewal is uncertain after Nacho’s signing.
