Belgian midfielder Axel Witsel has officially joined Girona after leaving Atlético Madrid this summer. The 35-year-old opted to part ways with the Rojiblancos in search of a fresh challenge in La Liga, ending his two-year stint under Diego Simeone.

Girona, who have impressed in recent seasons with their attacking football and competitive displays against Spain’s top clubs, secured Witsel’s signature on a free transfer. His vast experience, versatility, and leadership qualities are expected to provide a valuable boost to Míchel’s side as they aim to build on their recent successes and push for European qualification once again.

Witsel’s arrival marks another statement of intent from Girona as they continue to strengthen their squad for the challenges ahead.
