Transfers Synthesis

The movement picture is varied. Arrivals combine loans, free-agent additions, permanent transfers and players returning from temporary spells elsewhere. The latest activity was particularly mixed: G. Bonfanti arrived on loan, N. Opoku and Jefté Betancor as free agents, and T. Miyashiro and Sergio Ruiz through recorded transfers. The outgoing side likewise includes free-agent departures, permanent transfers, loan exits and returns to parent clubs. The simultaneous appearance of T. Miyashiro in an outgoing loan-return entry on 29 June and an incoming loan entry later in the year illustrates how the movement record can follow separate phases of a player’s registration. José Adam Arvelo López and A. Bassinga are also recorded both as outgoing loan moves and later returns. These entries offer a partial view of player movement rather than a complete balance, so no definitive net total can be drawn from them.

Leagues Las Palmas has participated in

Las Palmas’ recorded competition pathway is centered on Spanish football. Recent entries through 2025 include Segunda División, the Copa del Rey and club friendlies, with the league and cup records extending back to 2018 and friendlies to 2020. The La Liga entry covers 2015 to 2024 and is therefore historical rather than recent in the available record. A separate Copa Perú entry is recorded only for 2021 and sits outside the club’s main Spanish competition sequence. The available record shows records from Spain’s top two divisions, alongside domestic cup and friendly participation.

More about Las Palmas

Las Palmas, officially Unión Deportiva Las Palmas, S. A. D., is the football club of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria on Gran Canaria in Spain’s Canary Islands. Founded in 1949, it was created through the merger of five local institutions: Real Club Victoria, Marino Fútbol Club, Club Deportivo Gran Canaria, Athletic Club and Arenas Club. That origin gave the new club a unifying role in island football and remains central to its identity.

The club’s traditional colors are yellow and blue, reflecting the sun and sea associated with the archipelago. Its badge combines vertical yellow and blue stripes with a royal crown and the crests of the five founding clubs. Home identity has long centered on yellow shirts with blue shorts, while alternative designs have drawn on blue, white and maritime accents.

Estadio Gran Canaria, in the Siete Palmas neighborhood, opened in 2003 and replaced Estadio Insular as the club’s principal home. The venue anchors a passionate local following and expresses the scale of a modern stadium serving an institution shaped by insular geography. Atlantic distance from mainland Spain has helped give Las Palmas a distinctive cultural profile within the national game.

Historically, the club has moved between La Liga and Segunda División. Its peak record includes a La Liga runners-up finish in 1968–69 and a Copa del Rey final appearance in 1978. Las Palmas has also appeared in the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup and UEFA Cup, giving the club a documented European footprint.

The club operates as a Sociedad Anónima Deportiva under Spanish law, with regional business stewardship and a strong local framework. Its football culture is associated with possession, technical quality and creative expression. The Canarian academy tradition, often described through the club’s regional youth system, has supported a long-standing emphasis on developing technically gifted players alongside experienced domestic professionals and selected international reinforcements.
