Juanmi: “I really want to achieve great things with Málaga CF”
The Málaga Club de Fútbol striker held this morning’s press conference following training at the Ciudad de Málaga stadium. Juanmi analyses the team’s current situation and his return to the line-up.
The Coín-born player is pleased with his hard work and the support he’s received: “I was so happy the other day when I was back in the team line-up. It’s important that I keep working as hard as I can in order to take the next step and actually get to play.”
Juanmi is solely focused on Málaga CF: “I want to make sure that I prove to the coach that I deserve a place on the team, and am eager to get as many minutes on the pitch as possible.” Speaking of his loan period last season, Juanmi adds: “It helped me a great deal, I matured a lot and this year I’m determined to achieve great things with Málaga, which is what I want more than anything.” Although he knows there are two world-class strikers on the team, Roque Santa Cruz and El Hamdaoui, Juanmi states: “I try to learn as much as I can from them both in training, as they play in my position on the pitch, along with all my other teammates who I work with every day.”
With regards to the team’s current situation and this morning’s training, Juanmi says: “We’ve rectified mistakes we made last Friday and are determined to not let the same thing happen again.”
The ‘Malagueño’ also has a few words for the fans: “Our followers are always behind us, and we’re all eternally grateful. It’s so important for us to see a capacity crowd at La Rosaleda for every match. I really want to achieve great things with Málaga CF.”
