He joined Segunda División side Elche CF, helping the club gain promotion to La Liga in his first season, but the club were relegated at the end of the 1984–85 season. Next, Leguía moved to Germany to play for 1. FC Köln, however he didn't settle due to problems with his registration and never appeared in an official match for the club.
