The Franco-Ivorian wants a good environment in which to develop comfortably

Leganés have made a statement in the transfer market by signing Sebastien Haller in the final hours of the summer transfer window. The Franco-Ivorian striker, known for his goalscoring ability and great presence, was presented this Tuesday as the new signing of the club from the pepinero region. Haller arrives with the mission of reinforcing Leganés' attack and, above all, of recovering his best form after a difficult period.

Haller, 29, has had a career marked by ups and downs, with brilliant moments at teams such as Eintracht Frankfurt and recent difficulties that have prevented him from displaying his full potential. At his presentation, Haller did not hide his satisfaction at joining Leganés and expressed his gratitude towards the club for giving him this opportunity.

"I'm happy to be here. I want to thank the club for the opportunity they've given me to play," said the striker, showing his commitment to the Madrid team's project.

Sebastien Haller 's signing for Leganés not only represents a big bet for the club, but also an opportunity for the player to prove his worth in a new environment. Haller stressed his need to play and the importance of finding a suitable environment to fully develop. "I need to play. I need an environment where I can develop my version, something I couldn't do in the past few months," he said, making it clear that his main objective is to enjoy football again and contribute to the team.

His ability to make a difference in the area and his international experience are qualities that Leganés hope to take advantage of. The club is confident that, with minutes and continuity, Haller can recover his goal-scoring instinct and be decisive in the key matches of the season.
