The 2022-23 campaign was a season of soaring ambition and ultimate heartbreak for Levante as Granotas, newly relegated from the top flight, surged to a strong 3rd-place finish in the Segunda División and earned a shot at an instant return to La Liga. Despite the turmoil of mid-season managerial changes, the side stabilized under manager Javier Calleja to secure their play-off place. Leading the charge was the clinical forward Mohamed Bouldini, whose 8 goals proved vital in a season built on defensive strength and resilience. However, the dream of La Liga glory ended in the promotion play-off final with a crushing defeat to Alavés, marking a painful but defining chapter of their fight to climb back.
