SD Huesca kicks off pre-season with a star signing. Cameroonian defender Mohamed Djetei, 28, has become the first confirmed reinforcement for the Aragon-based club as they aim to return to the professional ranks in Primera RFEF. The central defender arrives with a clear mission: to help the team bounce back after last season’s relegation, when Huesca finished 20th in Segunda División with 38 points (9W-11D-22L from 42 games) and sat 44 points behind leaders Racing Santander. His presentation at El Alcoraz carried a bold message: "I’m here to help the team return to professional football."

Who is Mohamed Djetei and what does he bring to the team?

Djetei arrives at Huesca with Spanish league experience. After breaking into Nàstic de Tarragona’s squad in 2016, he went on to play for Córdoba and Albacete, where he carved out a reputation as a tough, quick defender strong in the air. "I’m a player who thrives on intensity and competitiveness," he explained during his unveiling. His profile fits Huesca’s project as they rebuild a competitive side in Primera RFEF following a tough campaign —with 41 goals scored and 63 conceded (a -22 goal difference)— and a five-match winless streak (0W-3D-2L, DDLLD).

The Cameroonian defender doesn’t hide his excitement about the city. "It’s small and welcoming, like Albacete," he said, highlighting the atmosphere he expects in Huesca. His arrival bolsters a backline the club has been eager to strengthen, especially after the 1-1 draw against Córdoba in the final match of the season (May 31, 2026), a result that sealed the drop.

The transfer window: 10 signings and a revamped squad

SD Huesca is approaching the new campaign with 10 confirmed signings to date, according to sporting director Javier Sanz de Arce. Among them are Quique Fornos, Víctor García, Gianfranco Gazzaniga, Pascu, Sergi Armero, Ander Gorostidi, Rafa Tresaco, Luismi Redondo and Iván Rodríguez. The squad now totals 16 players, including the continuity of Óscar Sielva, Sergi Enrich, Marc Aznar and academy products like Escario —who extended his contract by two seasons—, Willy, Fita and Alarcón, the latter two returning from loan.

Sanz de Arce praised the window’s pace: "We’ve closed signings that were top options and we did it on time." The club remains open to further moves, though with less urgency. The aim is clear: build a side mixing experience and youth to compete in a category where promotion demands consistency.

What’s next for Huesca?

The coach hasn’t yet named his starting XI, but Djetei is already positioning himself as a key piece. "Almost all of us are new and we want to prove we’re ready," the defender said. The team, which closed the season with a 2-1 loss to Racing Santander on May 24, 2026, now faces a demanding schedule in Primera RFEF, where the goal is to reclaim their lost tier.

The fans, tough after the drop, will watch a squad hungry for redemption. Djetei made it plain: "I’ll give my all so the fans can be proud." With renewed hope and a project under construction, SD Huesca heads into summer with eyes on El Alcoraz and a return to the professional game.
