Interview
Gerardo - illustrious visit with a flavour of Intertoto

Former ‘Malaguista’, Gerardo García spoke to MCF TV about his best moments at the Club, his goal in the final of the Intertoto Cup, his relationship with Javi Gracia and Charles, and his current job as football coach.

Memories of his time with MCF

“Málaga is like my second home.  Being part of such an important team for five years is something to be proud of.  My Intertoto goal?  It was at el Madrigal from a free kick, and qualified us to the UEFA.  We all remember that time, it was amazing and the most important things are the memories we have and to see everyone again.”

Gracia and Charles, teammates

“Javi and I were teammates at Villarreal and I was with Charles at Córdoba.  Gracia has great merit, he had a great season last year.  This week’s result will help the team to gain the momentum they were lacking.  Charles? Goal-scorers never forget a goal.  You’ll be surprised as they are quality players and will score many goals.”

Post-player stage

“I train a young team in the ‘División de Honor’ category in La Rioja, in group 2, Comillas.  I also set up a training school and remain linked to football, which is what I love.  It’s exciting as you’re working with young people, and in the future I hope to continue growing and training.”
