  • Real Oviedo owner Jesús Martínez said the club’s planned sports complex in Siero will rank among the world’s most modern facilities.
  • The club has bought nearly 40 hectares and spent more than 3 million euros on the land and required licenses for the project’s first three stages.
  • Martínez said Real Oviedo remains profitable and that the sale of Club León will not affect the Spanish club.

Real Oviedo’s planned sports city will be “one of the most modern in the world,” according to Jesús Martínez, president of Grupo Pachuca and the Spanish club’s majority owner.

Martínez said the club had already bought almost 40 hectares in the Asturian municipality of Siero. The site will rank among the four or five largest by area, he said, with construction planned in three stages. The land and the necessary licenses have cost more than 3 million euros.

Speaking at a news conference during his return to Oviedo, 11 months after his previous visit, Martínez also addressed the club’s finances. He said the sale of Club León would not affect Real Oviedo and insisted that the businesses controlled by Grupo Pachuca were profitable. He said profitability had become an established policy shared with club president Martín Peláez.

Martínez was in the city to receive the Medal of Asturias, which the regional government will award Real Oviedo for its centenary. He said the club was “very grateful” for the recognition.

The executive also responded to criticism over last year’s relegation from Spain’s top division and the leadership’s management of the club. Martínez said he did not believe Pachuca had lost social credibility and said Oviedo supporters treated him well during the team’s draw with Burgos. The club will resume training on Tuesday before Sunday’s match against Real Valladolid.
