Pellicer: “My heart and my head told me yes”

The Malaguista coach spoke to the media this Wednesday in the 'Juan Cortés' press room at La Rosaleda regarding his renewal: “I am very excited,” he stated.

This Wednesday, La Rosaleda hosted the official presentation of Sergio Pellicer as Malaguista coach for at least the next two campaigns. The coach from Nules, who achieved promotion to LaLiga Hypermotion with the Blue and Whites on 22nd June, spoke to the press days after the official announcement of his contract extension.

Grateful

“I want to thank Loren, Kike, José María and all the club employees, of course the players, coaching staff and above all the fans. I have the enthusiasm of a debutant and the energy and strength of the years I’ve been here. We have experienced something unique, something special. I’m very grateful to be able to continue here, this is the club of my family, my wife and my daughter. It is a very exciting challenge, but it must be faced with a lot of humility and with a lot of hard work, but with the union of the media, the fans and other groups everything will be fine.”

Very excited

“My heart told me one thing and my head told me the same. I am very excited, we know each other better and this year something has been generated that has not been seen in Málaga for many years, which is very beautiful and exciting. The most important thing is to work together at all levels.”

Objective, grow step by step

“We have to be clear about what we have to improve first and then get better game by game. It is a very complicated category and we must have our feet on the ground. Settle down, take steps forward and be ambitious, each match will set the context. It is the most difficult league because of the rivals there are. We are new and we have to understand it.”
