Players from the Malaguista first team, Enzo Maresca and Seba Fernández, have visited, the project ‘Mucho más que fútbol’ in Alhaurín del Torre prison. They were joined by Sporting Director, Antonio Fernández, who is also the founder of the initiative.
Maresca and Seba’s visit to the inmates is the first in a series of scheduled trips to the facility in 2012, in which Antonio Fernandez will accompany familiar faces from within, and some from outside, the world of sport.
Both the Italian and the Uruguayan, during the three hours that they were there, spoke with the inmates, played mini matches with them on the centre’s pitches, and took part in a workshop with 24 people, much to the delight of everyone present.
‘Mucho más que futbol’ is a project aimed at young inmates which tries to instil the ethical and social values of sport.
