Nacho Vidal, the latest winter signing for Real Oviedo, stated during his presentation as a player for the blue team that after leaving Osasuna, he needed a city and a club where he could feel like a footballer. He conveyed his hope to remain in Oviedo for many years due to the positive impression of the club. He mentioned that news from Oviedo had reached him before Christmas, but since he was under contract with Osasuna, things were not easy, although everything eventually resolved well. Vidal, who had not been getting playing time at Osasuna, believes Oviedo represents a strong project because of their impressive squad, and noted that the significant interest from the sports management for weeks was crucial in his decision, as feeling wanted and valued is very important to him.

Nacho Vidal has terminated his contract with Club Atlético Osasuna, which was due to end in June 2025, after six and a half seasons with the club. Various Asturian media indicate that he will sign with Real Oviedo to strengthen the team until June 30, 2027.

Osasuna has officially announced the departure of Nacho Vidal. After joining the team in the summer of 2018, he played 184 official matches over six and a half seasons. Despite his contributions, competition from Jesús Areso limited his playing time, leading to his departure. The club thanked Vidal for his professionalism and wished him luck in his future professional challenges.

Vicente Moreno expressed to Osasuna his intention to count on Nacho Vidal, but Osasuna denied the player's exit, despite the player's interest in the move.
