Borja Bastón has joined Granada after being without a team following the termination of his contract with Pachuca. He became a free agent when his contract with the Mexican club was mutually ended. Previously, Granada had considered his name, but Tognozzi initially dismissed the operation. After Tognozzi's departure from the club, the transfer was reactivated and completed under Escribá's management. This signing occurred as Granada was looking to strengthen their attacking options with free agents following the closure of the winter transfer window. Bastón, who had a brief period with Pachuca, did not score in his seven appearances there. His addition to Granada's squad enhances their offensive lineup, complementing players like Stoichkov, Boyé, Weissman, and Diao, as they aim to fill the gap left by Uzuni.
