Dear Quique, the first clear memory I have of you is of a day sitting at home watching a L’Hospitalet game on television and at the end of it seeing a character hugging his players who had just lost the chance to go up of category That character, who appeared from time to time on the screen wiping away tears, was you, the sports director of the Hospi. I would say that on that day glory and promotion left for Leganés.
Shortly after that it was announced that you would be the new sporting director of Girona FC. It was 2014 and as we all know, different times for the Montilivi entity. You could say it better than anyone, but precariousness and hardship would be the words that would surely define the first years you lived in Girona. In fact, you debuted in the year of Lugo.
Then we already know everything that has come. Very strong joys and also disappointments that have left you on the verge of giving up. But you’ve always found that righteous strength to come back. And surely thanks to that we are here. To this and this small work team of yours with whom you have always shown to do a maximum job. You are the ones in the engine room, the ones who are able to find Savinhos, Dovbyks, Tsygankovs and Gazzanigas, who curiously now everyone praises, but until now nobody wanted…
Do you know what I think Quique?. That in Spanish football there has been a lot of talk about Monchi, and that it cannot be otherwise because of the results, but if we look at the performance achieved with the combination of money and results, then here you rule for sure. And you know I’m not saying that to make fun of you, because if anyone really snagged you in the press room, it might have been me.
But in any case, on the last day at the stadium I saw you in the middle of the field hugging your players, just as you did ten years ago with the Hospitalet players. Because beyond winning or losing, it feels like you love them. And this way of doing things is the first big stone of a project. As it was with three plethoric years at the Hospii in this prodigious decade in Montilivi. Congratulations to you and the engine room guys! n
