The Hispanic Ángel Fernández returns to ASOBAL until 2027.

The international with the Spanish team, Ángel Fernández, will return to the elite of Spanish men's handball to land at Bathco BM. Torrelavega during the seasons 2024/2025, 2025/2026 and 2026/2027. The one from Astillero will close the circle by saying goodbye to his career at home, in a club where he already played between 2008-2013. The prodigal son returns to The Orange Squad with the team settled in the top category in the last three campaigns and just in a transition period with the departure of Álex Mozas and the arrival of Jacobo Cuétara to the benches.

The left winger of the Hispanos will bring talent and experience to the Cantabrian block after his stint at Teka Cantabria (2006-2008) -a team with which he debuted in ASOBAL scoring a goal on September 9, 2006 on the track of CAI BM. Aragón-; BM. Torrelavega (2008-2013), BM. Logroño La Rioja (2013-2018), Kielce (2018-2021), Barça (2021/2022) and Limoges (2022-2024). At the national team level, Ángel Fernández has won a double European gold medal (2018 and 2020), a European silver medal (2022), a double bronze medal at the 2021 and 2023 World Championships and an Olympic bronze medal at Tokyo 2020. The arrival of Ángel Fernández is, without a doubt, an exciting and high-quality signing for the family of Bathco BM. Torrelavega.

Ángel Fernández – Bathco BM. Torrelavega Signing

“I am very happy and eager and with a lot of responsibility to be able to help the team to keep moving up step by step in Spanish handball. If I have to sum it up in one word it would be happiness”.

“I am lucky to have played here for five years, to know everything, for me it is still like a family and everything is still very personal. It is one of the great projects in Spain and being a club where I spent 5 wonderful years, for me it is very important. It is a privilege to be able to return. The quarry has improved a lot and in the future it will surely yield many results”.

“We have grown a lot, many years have passed. Yes, it is true that some weekend that I could be here I have been able to approach and I have seen how the club has grown both internally and externally. The fans are still 10, cheering the team in good times and bad. You just have to come on a match day to see how the Vicente Trueba and its surroundings are, it's a pressure cooker. We hope to continue growing both in the fan base and in the support of companies”.

“I don't know the dressing room, but, surely, it will be a good group of boys eager to do things well. I hope to bring that degree of experience and also good vibes. I come to try to make the team better, hopefully all that can be transformed into victories and points. See you next season”.
