The 2003-04 campaign was a season of attacking brilliance for Los Bermellones, concluding with an 11th-place finish in La Liga. Leading the charge was the sensational Samuel Eto'o, whose prolific 17 goals in the league were part of a career-best 22 goals across all competitions, proving utterly decisive for the team. This brilliant form also powered a strong run in the UEFA Cup, reaching the Fourth Round, in a season built on the charismatic forward's genius before his inevitable big-money transfer, marking the end of an era for the island club.
