Córdoba CF aims to solidify its objective of permanence after two consecutive victories. The next challenge will be against Cultural Leonesa, currently at the bottom of the league, a rival that, despite its position, is still fighting for salvation. For Diego Percan, this match holds special significance as he returns to his former home and hometown.
Percan, who arrived at El Arcángel on January 1st from Arka Gdynia in Poland, signed a contract until June 2027. Despite the club's ambitious bet, the initial lack of playing rhythm has been a challenge for the forward, who has played 255 minutes in 12 matches as a substitute, scoring one goal and providing one assist.
“"Competition is basic and key for a team to function. If there were no competition, it would always be the same, there would be no ambition. I am a person who understands competition as a way to improve and be better."
The club's sporting director, Juanito, has highlighted Percan's versatility, as he can play as a right winger, striker, or attacking midfielder. The player has expressed his commitment to performing at his best in any position, feeling comfortable both on the right wing, where he previously played for Cultural, and as a striker, his natural position since childhood.
To make a significant leap under Iván Ania's direction, Percan considers it vital to continue playing and gaining confidence. Although numbers like goals and assists are important for a forward, the player emphasizes the importance of maintaining good sensations on the field.
Despite a challenging streak, Córdoba CF approaches the last seven matches with the same ambition. Percan acknowledged that his beginnings in professional football were difficult, but Iván Ania's trust has allowed him to evolve and seek his best form. The forward anticipates a tight match against Cultural Leonesa, a team that urgently needs three points and, according to Percan, has versatile players capable of creating danger.
