Former Leeds United midfielder Pablo Hernandez believes a friendly between his former side and current club CD Castellon is a possibility next summer.
Hernandez departed Elland Road at the end of last season after five years at the club where he established himself as a club legend.
Across his 175 appearances at Leeds, he scored 36 goals and registered 41 assists, including nine of each during the club’s promotion campaign in 2019/20.
But after being reduced to a more bit-part role during his final year with the club, Hernandez and Leeds decided to part ways during the summer and in front of a reduced 8,000 crowd, he received a standing ovation alongside Gaetano Berardi during his final game with the club.
The majority of Leeds supporters, though, were unable to say goodbye to a player that was idolised during his time at Elland Road and so many of them have taken it upon themselves to watch him at his new club Castellon.
In a recent programme with Radio Voramar, via Sports Witness, Hernandez revealed that talks have already taken place regarding a potential friendly between the two sides, something which he is extremely hopeful can be arranged.
He said: “It would be incredible to be able to experience that, but I think that if the circumstances are right, I’m sure it can be done.
“When I spoke to Leeds about saying goodbye and specifically about my departure, the subject came up, and the idea is to be able to do it.
“Hopefully it will be for the centenary, next summer; it would be something amazing to be able to experience it, incredible for me. I hope it happens!”
