Fernando Sanz discusses Málaga CF challenges and World Cup impact

Former Málaga CF player and president Fernando Sanz shared insights during a recent talk organized by the Málaga Sports Journalists Association. Sanz addressed the club's current situation, stating that passing on opportunities related to the 2030 World Cup could condemn Málaga CF to remaining a small team.

He expressed support for maintaining the La Rosaleda stadium on its current grounds in Martiricos, though he noted that the chance to build a new stadium for the World Cup was missed. Sanz also commented on the lengthy seven-year judicial administration process, suggesting that solutions exist to resolve the matter.

Reflecting on his tenure as president, Sanz emphasized that the club prioritized financial stability by paying all salaries on time and adhering to strict wage caps. He also touched upon the ownership situation, suggesting that Al-Thani should respond to his son's imprisonment.
