The 2015-16 campaign delivered ultimate heartbreak for Levante as Granotas spectacularly collapsed, finishing a crushing 20th in La Liga and suffering relegation to the Segunda División after an 11-season stay. Leading the attack was the Brazilian forward Deyverson, whose 9 goals were a crucial, solitary highlight in a season built on turmoil and a lack of consistency. It was a dark year that featured a managerial change and ended with their dramatic drop from the top flight, despite pulling off an unforgettable late-season upset to defeat title-chasing Atlético Madrid.
