Youth and talent are the cornerstones of a rejuvenated VCF Mestalla side who will play their first official game this Saturday. The 22 players that make up the second team squad have an average age of 19.9 years old, with a large number born after 2000.

Several players have made their debuts for the Valencia CF first team, including Esquerdo (born in 1999), Alex Blanco (1998) and Yunus (2002).

The average age lowers to 19.9 years including VCF Juvenil players who will feature for VCF Mestalla over the course of the season, such as Fran Pérez (2002), Hugo González (2003) and Pedro Alemañ (2002). Other young talents such as Carles Aliberch (2002), Facundo (2003), Charly (2002) and César Tárrega (2002) have been regulars for VCF Mestalla in preseason.
