Arnaut Danjuma - Transfers to GironaDanjuma has completed a transfer to Girona from Villarreal, according to his new club.

ImpactDanjuma will remain in Spain this season but has found a new club, with the Dutch attacker joining Girona. He served with Everton last season on loan from Villarreal, starting in five of his 14 appearances while notching one goal. That said, he is likely to see a bigger role with his new club, probably starting in a rotational role but pushing for starting time once integrated with the club.

Sergio Herrera - Concedes four in lossHerrera recorded one save and allowed four goals in Thursday's 4-0 loss against Girona.

ImpactHerrera had a performance to forget Thursday as Girona comfortably and surgically picked apart the Osasuna backline. Herrera's lone save saw the keeper parallel to the pitch while getting his right glove to the ball to keep the game tied at zero early in the first half. Herrera and Osasuna's next test will come Sunday as they play host to Celta Vigo who have scored eight goals over their first three matches.

Cristhian Stuani - Substitute extraordinaireStuani scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Thursday's 4-0 win against Osasuna.

ImpactStuani scored the final goal of the match Thursday to increase Girona's lead to 4 - 0 as they defeated Osasuna handedly. Stuani continues to showcase his ability as an opportunistic poacher of goals. Since 2022, the striker has made 65 appearances for Girona but just 13 starts. Despite his lack of starts, the veteran striker has racked up 19 goals over that span. Given that Stuani is playing in his age 37 season, it should be expected that Girona will continue the usage pattern they've shown for the veteran of their past two campaigns.

Van de Beek made the most of his opportunity, driving a cutback pass across the goal frame to setup Girona's fourth goal. Van de Beek was an unused substitute in each of Girona's first two matches.

ImpactHerrera supplied his first assist of the campaign Thursday, deftly chesting down a ball to setup a teammate for a shot, as Girona defeated Osasuna 4 - 0. The assist was the first for the midfielder since the 2022 - 2023 campaign. Herrera remains a key cog in the Girona squad. He has started in each of their first three matches to begin the campaign after scoring five goals over 29 appearances (27 starts) during the previous campaign.

ImpactRuiz Ortega displayed his skill Thursday, thundering a volley into the top corner of the net for Girona's third goal as they would go on to defeat Osasuna by a margin of 4 - 0. The goal marked Ruiz Ortega's return to La Liga after developing through the Barcelona system and making a single senior appearance during the 2018 - 2019 campaign. Ruiz Ortega has most recently spent 2020 - 2024 with SC Braga in Portugal where he scored 20 goals over 123 appearances. He has been named to the starting XI in each of Girona's first three matches to begin the 2024 - 2025 campaign.

Bryan Gil - First goal of campaignGil scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Thursday's 4-0 win against Osasuna.

ImpactGil opened the scoring Thursday, crashing the back post to force the ball into the back of the net, as Girona defeated Osasuna 4 - 0. After making just 11 Premier League appearances (two starts) and not registering a goal contribution for Tottenham during the 2023 - 2024 campaign, Gil has now started in each of Girona's first three matches and has his first goal with his new club. Gil's career-best campaign came in La Liga during the 2020 - 2021 campaign with Eibar in which he scored four goals and supplied three assists over 28 appearances (26 starts).
