Spanish club praise Sheffield Wednesday’s ‘wonderful facilities’ after borrowing Middlewood Road
On Friday, the Spanish LaLiga team Leganes utilized Sheffield Wednesday’s Middlewood Road training ground. This visit marks the club’s first-ever trip to the United Kingdom, culminating in a match against Sheffield Wednesday. Known as Los Pepineros, Leganes had been training in Burnley prior to this and played a friendly against the Clarets last week, which ended in a 0-0 draw. They hope for a better outcome at Hillsborough, although Danny Röhl and his team aim to spoil their visit. Despite not having much success in their preseason games, with a loss to AD Alcorcón and draws against Burnley and OGC Nice, Leganes are eager to secure a victory in South Yorkshire as they gear up for their first season back in the top flight.
