Rayo Vallecano starts a new project after a historic season. The departure of Iñigo Pérez to Villarreal CF forces the Vallecano team to look for a new coach to lead the squad next season. Initially, it seemed that the chosen one was Jagoba Arrasate, but in a twist of events, the Rayo Vallecano club has changed its objective and is close to closing its new technician. Specialist journalist in the transfer market, Matteo Moretto has reported the change of script in Vallecas after Arrasate had everything agreed with Rayo Vallecano. The chosen one is Beñat San José, who will have to pay around 400,000 euros to leave SD Eibar. Beñat has convinced the presidency and the sports management of Rayo Vallecano with his style, undoing the agreement they had with Arrasate. Beñat will make his debut in the First Division. At 46 years old, the San Sebastian native has spent almost his entire career away from Spain. Since his departure from the Real Sociedad reserve team in 2012, he has passed through Al Ittihad, Al Ettifaq, Antofagasta, Bolívar, Universidad Católica, Al Nasr, KAS Eupen, Mazatlán, Atlas, and since February 2025, Eibar. With the armeros, he has directed sixty games in a season and a half with 27 wins, 17 draws, and 16 losses. His work has been positive in Ipurua, in fact, this same season Eibar was on the verge of playing the Promotion to the First Division, while in the previous season they also came close, although after a significant recovery from the lower places. Rayo Vallecano is willing to pay Beñat San José's release clause to have his services. The arrival of Beñat San José at Rayo Vallecano will mean a change in the team's style of play. Beñat San José has proven to be a coach with a great ability to get the most out of his players. Rayo Vallecano hopes that Beñat San José can lead the team to victory in the next season. The team is looking forward to the new season with Beñat San José at the helm. Beñat San José's experience will be crucial in the upcoming season.
