Girona’s aspirations of continuing their impressive La Liga performance into the next season suffered a major blow this month with the departure of their star striker, Artem Dovbyk, to Italy.
Reports suggest that Girona has identified a successor for the Ukrainian forward, aiming to maintain the same level of attacking prowess and avoid any decline in quality.
According to Marca, Girona have selected Bojan Miovski (25) as their replacement. Miovski, who plays for Aberdeen in Scotland, had an impressive season with 53 appearances and 26 goals.
TransferMarkt values the North Macedonian forward at €4 million, presenting him as an affordable and low-risk option for the club.
At just 25 years old, the striker has yet to hit his prime and could further develop under Míchel at Girona, instilling hope for the club’s future as he aims to advance his career.
Though Miovski has previously played only in Hungary and his home country of North Macedonia before joining Scotland, his limited European experience doesn’t appear to deter Girona.
The two parties are deeply engaged in intense negotiations at the moment, and both sides are working diligently to reach an agreement. The ongoing discussions have generated considerable excitement and speculation, as the outcome is highly anticipated. Fans and observers are eagerly awaiting an announcement, which is expected to provide significant insight into the club’s future direction and potential developments.

Athletic Club is set to kick off their 2024-25 La Liga season by welcoming Getafe to San Mamés next Thursday. This opening match marks the beginning of a new campaign, and Ernesto Valverde’s team is determined to make a strong impression. Their primary objective is to build on last season’s achievements and surpass their fourth-place finish.
The squad remains largely unchanged, with only two new additions—Álvaro Djalo and Andoni Gorosabel—and a few peripheral players leaving, including Iker Muniain and Asier Villalibre.
Djalo was Athletic Club’s standout summer acquisition, arriving from Braga for approximately €15 million. He had a strong pre-season but will miss the match against Getafe due to a hamstring injury sustained during Wednesday’s friendly against Aston Villa, according to Athletic.
While Djalo’s injury is minor, Relevo reports that it will postpone his competitive debut for the club. This setback is a significant disappointment for Valverde, but it is somewhat alleviated by Nico Williams’ early return from vacation, which should ensure his availability for the game against Getafe.

The bronze medal match at the 2024 Olympic Games proved to be decisively one-sided. In a highly anticipated clash, Morocco went head-to-head with Egypt in Nantes. From the outset, Morocco demonstrated their superiority, eventually securing a commanding 6-0 victory. This overwhelming performance not only showcased their skill and dominance on the field but also guaranteed them a well-deserved spot on the podium.
La Liga players Ez Abde and Ilias Akhomach played pivotal roles in Morocco’s resounding triumph. Abde made a notable impact by scoring a spectacular goal, which helped establish a commanding 2-0 lead for Morocco. Additionally, he showcased his playmaking abilities by providing two crucial assists, further contributing to the team’s dominant performance.
As a result, both Real Betis and Villarreal have a bronze medallist, and La Masia can also take some pride since both players developed through Barcelona’s academy.
The gold medal match is set for Friday, featuring Spain against the host nation, France. With the return of the match, there will be additional La Liga medallists, and hopes are high that La Rojita will secure the gold medal.
