Midfielder Aleix Febas continues to be a fundamental player for Elche CF, who are fighting for permanence in LaLiga EA Sports. The player highlights the importance of team and fan unity to face the final matchdays.

Amidst discussions about his future, Aleix Febas, 30 years old, was decisive in the derby against Valencia CF, providing the assist that secured three golden points for Eder Sarabia's team. Although the victory did not lift the team out of the relegation zone, it did bring the 'franjiverdes' within one point of safety, currently held by Deportivo Alavés, their next opponent at Martínez Valero.
Febas, who has already played 111 official matches since his arrival in the summer of 2023, was a key player in the promotion to LaLiga EA Sports last season. This season, he has participated in 95% of the playing minutes, with two goals and two assists, establishing himself as a regular in the starting eleven.
“

"Today's training session was very competitive, with a lot of duels. The team is working very well."

The team's plan is to turn Martínez Valero into a fortress. Elche CF will play three of their remaining seven matches at home, including visits from Atlético de Madrid next Wednesday and Getafe CF on the penultimate matchday.
“

"We have to focus on ourselves, on becoming strong at home. We have been all year. At home, between the team and the fans, it becomes an uphill battle for opponents."

The victory in the last matchday has reignited the competitive spark, but the team will have to wait to play again due to the Copa del Rey final. Febas emphasizes the urgency of each match, as the standings are very tight.
“

"After winning, you want to play as soon as possible, you want more. Everything is very tight and we have to go for the match."

The support of the fans is crucial in this final stretch of the season. Febas highlights the importance of having the supporters by their side, even in the most difficult moments.

"The fans have been with us even in bad times. That says a lot and is very important."

The calendar offers no respite, but the locker room faces the challenge with optimism. Febas warns that May will be a very demanding but also beautiful month, and that the team enjoys competing. The final message is one of total commitment: for the fans to stay with them until the end, as the team will give their all.
