The CD Castellón squad has defined its four leaders for the 2026/2027 season, after a collective decision among the players. The albino team, which celebrates its 45th campaign in the silver category, will have a shared leadership that reinforces internal cohesion. The footballers elected to wear the bracelet are Alberto Jiménez, Jérémy Mellot, Diego Barri and Fabrizio Brignani, who will assume key roles in the management of the group during the next campaign.
Alberto Jiménez, a defender originally from Fuerteventura, positions himself as the first captain of the team. With four seasons in the club, his consistency and presence on the field have consolidated his figure as one of the pillars of the locker room. His ascent to absolute leadership responds to the recognition of his commitment and authority among his teammates, making him the main reference in matches and in decisive moments.
Jérémy Mellot, a defender from France, begins his second year at Castelló after his signing from CD Tenerife. His experience in second division football and his influence inside and outside the pitch have been fundamental for his stay among the captains. This season he will assume the role of second captain, a position that reflects his growing weight in the group and his ability to guide the team from the sidelines.
Diego Barri, a Salamanquean player, joined the club in the summer of 2025 and has already proven his worth in his first year. His attitude, commitment and presence on the field have been key to earning the respect of his teammates. This choice as captain is the result of his constant work, which has allowed him to be considered one of the team’s leaders in his second year in Castelló.
Finally, Italian center-back Fabrizio Brignani also starts his second season with the club. Since his arrival, he has managed to fully integrate into the locker room, earning a prominent place not only for his performance, but also for his positive influence. His inclusion among the captains is a first in his career at the club, a recognition of his contribution and his ability to lead from the defense.
