The summer of 2025 has seen significant moves among players who once played for MICFootball. These include MICPlayers names such as Marcus Rashford, Álex Baena, Xavi Simons, Arnau Tenas, João Félix, Miguel Gutiérrez, and Rodrigo “Roro” Riquelme.
Marcus Rashford joined FC Barcelona on loan in July and enters the start of the season hoping to regain his best form in LaLiga. Álex Baena officially left Villarreal to join Atlético de Madrid in a move the Red and White club presented as a bid to strengthen its midfield.
Xavi Simons was one of the signings of the final stretch of the transfer window, signing for Tottenham Hotspur, a deal announced at the end of August that reinforces the English club’s attacking ambitions. Meanwhile, Arnau Tenas, a goalkeeper trained in the Barça youth system and who also played for PSG, has joined Villarreal in search of more continuity.
On the international front, João Félix finalized his move to the Saudi Pro League with Al-Nassr at the end of July and has already started to find the net in his first matches. Miguel Gutiérrez, a left-back who excelled last season, signed for Napoli in August, in a move that confirms Serie A’s interest in young Spanish full-backs (Alex Valle to Como).
Finally, “Roro” Riquelme left Atlético de Madrid and signed for Real Betis in July, seeking a greater role in LaLiga.
