Extraordinary offer to Ceuta players!

Ceuta president offered players full contract payouts to leave; all declined and recommitted to fighting relegation.

Ceuta president Luhay Hamido held an emergency meeting with the squad on Sunday night following a 0–2 home defeat to Sporting Gijón that left the club bottom of LaLiga Hypermotion with just 5 points from 12 games. He offered any player who wished to leave the club the option to depart with their full contract paid in full. No player accepted the offer.

After confirming all squad members wanted to stay, Hamido locked the meeting room and addressed the group directly, asking if they were committed to reversing the club's dire form and achieving survival. The club stated that the door remained locked until the president, board, players and coaching staff all expressed absolute conviction in turning around the negative dynamic.

Following the meeting, Hamido made a public statement putting his position at the disposal of the board. In a subsequent meeting, the board decided to reject his resignation and reaffirm his continued leadership. The club described the gathering as a potential turning point for the remainder of the season.
