José María Giménez and Marc Casadó completed their first training session with Deportivo on Thursday, two days after joining the club on the final day of the transfer window.

Their presence at the Abegondo training complex was the main new feature of the session as coach Antonio Hidalgo prepared the team for Saturday’s match against Villarreal at the Estadio de la Cerámica. The game belongs to the fourth round of Spain’s LaLiga EA Sports.

Giménez spent 13 seasons at Atlético Madrid and arrives to provide leadership and experience in central defense. He also brings recent competitive rhythm, having played in two of Atlético’s first three league matches.

Casadó arrives with less match practice. The former Barcelona midfielder did not play in any of the first three LaLiga rounds under German coach Hansi Flick. His last appearance for Barcelona came in a friendly against Birmingham, the match with which the club began its preseason.
