Statement from Fernando San Emeterio, sports director: "We are pleased with Sergi Martínez's renewal because, since he arrived in Girona, he has strongly identified with the club and the city. For us, he also exemplifies many of the values we want in the team. He spares no effort on the court, puts team interests ahead of personal ones, and is the type of player who makes those around him function better. Additionally, I believe he is evolving positively in aspects of his game that he is working on, and his ceiling is still to come."
