Granada Appoint Portuguese Manager Paulo Fonseca

Granada have confirmed Paulo Fonseca as their new head coach following promotion back to La Liga. The experienced Portuguese manager has previously coached Roma, Lille, and Shakhtar Donetsk.

Fonseca brings a reputation for attacking football and squad discipline, both of which Granada will need as they face a tough season ahead. Avoiding relegation is the primary goal, but fans are hoping for more than just survival.

With Fonseca’s arrival, Granada are expected to sign a mix of experienced players and exciting youngsters. Midfield control and defensive structure will be top priorities for the new boss.

Fonseca is also known for developing talent, which aligns well with Granada’s plans to promote academy players into the first team. The club wants to establish itself as a stable La Liga side after years of yo-yoing.

This appointment is seen as ambitious, and it sends a message that Granada aren't just here to make up the numbers—they want to compete.
