Player to watch: Ludovic Fàbregas

Ludovic Fàbregas is one of the most complete and decisive players in the Liga NEXUS ENERGÍA ASOBAL, with an all-around role in defensive tasks and with the ball in hand. The French international will once again be one of the beacons of Carlos Ortega's Barça after shining last year in his return to ASOBAL handball. Fàbregas lifted his sixth ‘All Star ASOBAL’ award, the first in the best defender category, after leading the blaugrana 6:0 system. In addition to his ability to organize and set the tempo of the game from defense, directly contributing to Barça being the least scored team, the pivot also contributed 71 goals in attack.

ASOBAL Pearl: Adrián Sola

Sola will play his first season as a full member of Carlos Ortega's squad. A new chapter in his career, built on goals and great performances. The youth international was one of the best young players in the championship last season, making the shortlist of candidates for the ‘All Star ASOBAL’ in the breakthrough player category at only 18 years old. Sola scored 89 goals in 25 games, being Barça's fourth top scorer in the Liga NEXUS ENERGÍA ASOBAL, adapting to the competition's pace, contributing, and being key in important moments of the season.
