The 2021-22 campaign delivered a dramatic and hard-fought return to La Liga for RCD Mallorca as Los Bermellones secured their top-flight status with a crucial 16th-place finish in their first season back among the Spanish elite. The year was defined by a mid-season managerial change, with Javier Aguirre arriving in March to spearhead a desperate survival bid that ultimately clinched safety on the final matchday. Leading the charge for goals were the experienced midfielder Salva Sevilla and the impactful January loan signing Vedat Muriqi, who both notched 5 crucial league goals. Despite a turbulent run, the team's resilience and key late-season victories cemented this year as an unforgettable chapter of sheer grit and successful survival for the club.
