The Blue and White coach, after extending his contract with the club until 2028, will continue working with Juan Carlos Andrés as his right-hand man on the coaching staff. “I’m lucky to be at the club in the best city in the world,” he said.
Special year
“It’s been a very special year, last year was too, and we are enjoying it a lot. I’m lucky to be part of the club’s plan, like many other Academy players. As Loren said, the hardest part is still ahead, but also the most beautiful.”
Clear project
“José María (Muñoz) and Kike (Pérez) had a clear project in mind, and Loren has carried it out. The project has been reflected in these renewals, it has gone well, and it’s worth continuing.”
Fans
“I want to thank them for everything they are giving. I remember the first weeks, when I asked for the team itself, from within, to be able to project outward. I think the team conveys what it truly is, energy, courage, and the fans are really enjoying it. That may be the most rewarding part, and I hope the weeks continue to pass so that people can keep enjoying what we are doing.”
Another ‘Malagueño’
“I arrived here many years ago, but I believe that all of us who come here feel at home. My daughter was born here, for example. People quickly form a bond with the city. We are lucky to be at the club in the best city in the world, and we feel very fortunate for that. The players see it every day, they convey it, I feel it, and that is the most important thing.”
Excitement
“I don’t see it as a reward for what happened before, but as an opportunity to make the most of what’s coming. I’m lucky to be on a ship that’s carrying us forward with great momentum. It’s a very beautiful, exciting, and very personal project, and that gives it a special value, not only because of the team’s competitive value, but also for the sentimental value that gives the project so much strength.”

Renewal
“Just as excited as I am grateful. Every day I’ve spent here has been a gift. It’s wonderful to be able to work with this coaching staff, medical team, and the group of players we have. They are the ones who inspire us day by day, and they are building a future that is truly exciting.”
Team
“Everything happening around the team is very beautiful. If we keep rowing in the same direction, with this excitement and this joy, we will be able to build something very big.”
Málaga
“It’s a fantastic city, and I’m really enjoying the day-to-day, both with the team and at the club. It’s an extraordinary province and a beautiful city.”
