Elche CF is looking for a new head of medical services after Paco Martínez decided to leave the team to join Real Murcia.

What happened?

Paco Martínez, the Murcian doctor, had been in charge of Elche CF's medical services for the past two seasons, and had lived through the team's promotion to LaLiga EA Sports and its subsequent survival in the top flight.

Why is it important for Elche CF?

The departure of Paco Martínez leaves a void in the team, which needs a new medical chief for the upcoming season. Elche CF is currently in 15th place in LaLiga with 43 points, 51 points behind leaders Barcelona, and has scored 49 goals this season, while conceding 57.

What comes next?

Elche CF needs to find a replacement for Paco Martínez as soon as possible, to ensure that the team is ready for the upcoming season. The team has had problems with injuries in the past, and a good head of medical services is crucial to keeping players healthy and ready to compete. Elche CF has had several medical chiefs in recent years, including Álvaro Sala and Paulino Vázquez, and now needs to find someone who can fill the void left by Paco Martínez.
