Juan Sebastián, FC Andorra's new right-back, was officially unveiled on Tuesday at the Nou Estadi de la FAF, expressing strong enthusiasm for the club's distinct project in Spain's Segunda División.
The defender, arriving from Zaragoza after a difficult season that ended in relegation to Primera RFEF, described the move as the ideal step to rebuild his career. After 13 years with Zaragoza—aside from a loan at Alcorcón—he highlighted the Tricolors' unique identity in the category. "It's not easy to find a team with such a clear identity here, and I think its characteristics fit me as a player," he stated.
Sebastián noted a supportive atmosphere at the club that promotes player growth. "Here you breathe something different. Everything around the footballer is ideal for developing, and that will help me consolidate and show my level," he said. He arrives "with all the excitement in the world" and views this as a crucial year.
Aware of Thomas Carrique's solid performance last season at right-back, Sebastián is prepared to challenge for a starting spot. "I come to compete, help the team, and make us both grow day by day," he explained. He stressed the need for the squad to stay true to the club's personality and competitiveness.
The Aragonese player praised FC Andorra's focus on young, energetic talent as a key differentiator. He reported positive early preseason progress, including training in the Principat and the stay in San Pedro del Pinatar. Before signing, he sought advice from former Andorra players Marc Aguado and Adrià Vilanova, who provided strong endorsements.
