The American footballer Nick Markanich has arrived in Castellón to join the club, which signed him in August for him to start in January. The 25-year-old forward has yet to train under the guidance of Dick Schreuder, but he has already observed his new teammates during their match against Elche, which marked the end of Castellón's 2024 activities. Markanich is set to commence his tenure at Castellón on January 2, following the Christmas break, beginning his European football career after concluding the year as the top scorer in the USL Championship, the second division in the United States. The club, led by Bob Voulgaris, delayed his incorporation due to his involvement in the playoffs with Charleston Battery, which ended in mid-November after their loss in the conference final.
