Dylan, another academy prospect tied down

Granada have renewed Dylan Rodríguez's contract, continuing their strategy of tying down academy prospects; the club faces Las Palmas on a five-game winning streak.

Dylan Rodríguez is the latest of Granada's young academy prospects to sign a contract extension with the club. Manager Pacheta has built a squad blending academy talent with experienced players, placing Granada in playoff positions. The team has won five consecutive league matches and six if counting a Copa del Rey fixture, chasing a sixth straight league victory.

Granada will be without key players for the match against Las Palmas. José Arnáiz, a crucial attacking piece, remains injured alongside Diallo and Casadesús. Owen Emeka, another academy graduate, is absent competing in Spain's FIFA U-17 World Cup campaign—a situation Pacheta criticized for disrupting the club's season during the competitive window.

Las Palmas arrive in strong form with four consecutive wins but face their own squad issues. Defenders Juanma Herzog and Valentín Pezzolesi are away with Spain's U-21 side, while Sandro suffered a fresh injury after assisting last weekend's goal. The visitors will attempt to extend their streak and climb into playoff contention.
