Gabi: A Red and White Future on the Horizon
Gabi Fernández, a Red and White legend, has started a new chapter in his career as the coach of Real Zaragoza. After his successful spell with Getafe B, the former captain of Atlético de Madrid takes on a great challenge leading the Maño team, which is fighting to move away from the relegation zone.
However, Gabi doesn’t forget his roots and his Red and White heart. In recent statements, the coach has expressed his hope to one day coach Atlético de Madrid. ‘Hopefully in the future I can coach Atlético, but I’m not focused on it.
Right now my energy and all my capacity is focused on Real Zaragoza,’ Gabi said. The former undisputed leader of Atleti does not hesitate to recognize the influence of Diego Simeone on his career. ‘El Cholo is leadership and the ability to transmit what he feels.
He convinces you of anything at any time,’ he assures. Gabi highlights the importance of trust and conviction, values he learned from Simeone and that he now tries to instill in his players in Zaragoza. For the Atlético fans, these words from Gabi are a ray of hope.
His commitment, his passion and his identification with the Red and White colors make him an ideal candidate for the Metropolitano bench in the future. Although his present is now in Zaragoza, the dream of seeing Gabi directing Atleti remains alive in the hearts of the fans.
