Iker Recio expressed his pride in joining the historic club Cádiz and mentioned that he had been contacted by his representative, which he considered a dream come true. He is a central defender capable of playing as a left back. The manager, Gaizka, advised him to recover well from his injury to perform at his best as he did at Antequera. Recio, along with Mario Climent, was presented as part of Cádiz's winter transfer window reinforcements. Both players, who come from Primera Federación teams, have already made their debut in a friendly match against Atlético Sanluqueño on January 5, showcasing their abilities in a victory for Cádiz. Recio is eager to adapt quickly to the team's dynamics and contribute positively under the guidance of the new coach, despite the team's recent challenging streak.
