The 25-year-old Granada-born footballer, whose contract was set to expire on 30th June 2026, has signed a renewal that strengthens Málaga CF’s right-back position.
Puga arrived in Málaga two winter transfer windows ago, in the middle of the 23/24 season, from Club Atlético de Madrid’s reserve team. He was part of the squad that achieved promotion to LALIGA HYPERMOTION, complementing the right-side defensive profile alongside Jokin Gabilondo.
The 24/25 season was a year of consolidation for Puga, who played 31 league matches and one more in the Copa del Rey, totalling 2,245 minutes on the pitch. In the current 25/26 season, he has confirmed his regular presence in the starting-11, competing at a high level with his characteristic fighting spirit, speed, and offensive drive.
This renewal reinforces the Club’s commitment to continuity, sporting stability, and the growth of a project based on dedication, performance, and alignment with the Club’s values.
Málaga Club de Fútbol celebrates the extension of Carlos Puga’s contract, a player who embodies the Blue and White competitive spirit, and wishes him much success in this new stage, defending the Málaga badge until 2029.
