Álex Pastor: “I had no doubt, this club and these fans are incredible”

The player was officially presented as a Málaga CF player this Tuesday. The centre-back appeared before the media in the Juan Cortés press room at La Rosaleda.

Excited

“I am so happy to be here. The group has given me a great welcome, they have treated me so well. You can tell this is a family. I feel very lucky to come to this great club.”

A project with guarantees

“Who is not going to know Málaga, my whole family is from Andalucía. It all happened two weeks ago and the truth is that I had no doubts. I wanted a long-term project, a stable project and this club gives me all that. Living in a city like this, with incredible fans, is something special.”

A very interesting competition

“It is going to be the most beautiful and exciting LaLiga Hypermotion that has been played in recent years and it’s a privilege to be able to compete in it this season. We have one of the best fan bases, if not the best, and that is a plus that we have to make the most of.”

Trained in Italy

“I left very young, 15 years old, and the truth is that I didn't think about it. It was an adventure, a unique experience and it wasn’t easy. I had to work year after year until I earned it. I was finally able to return to Spain a few years ago, where there is more attractive football, with spectacular fans and being in such a big club is something I’ve dreamed of since I was a child.”

Amazing dressing room

“Securing promotion from the Primera Federación is very difficult, you need a very good, very complete squad. As for the people, the group is excellent, both young people and veterans. This is what Loren told me. It’s the most important thing about the team, and honestly it is what I have seen, so now let's give our all and kill for the shield and my teammates.”

Fans’ welcome

“The truth is that I've only been here for a couple of days, but I want to thank the fans for all their messages. I'm really looking forward to the start and being able to play at this stadium.”
