Pep Guardiola, considered one of the best coaches in the world, remembered its passage like player in Gilded of Sinaloa in the First Division of Mexico.
In the documentary entitled “Toca-Pep, again”, the multi-winner with Barcelona recalled what he experienced in the city of Culiacán, in the 2005-2006 season, the last of his career.
“How well you play football in Mexico. What a love of the game there is, what a love of life …, and how well you eat. How generous they are having so little; it’s a fantastic country. “
Guardiola enjoyed throughout his time in Mexican football, even the social issue. “And look, I went to Sinaloa, where the sign is and it’s a place where you have to be careful where you walk and how.”
Guardiola played ten games with Sinaloa, scored a goal and left because the team lost the category. Legend has it that it was Sebastián Abreu who convinced the Spaniard to come to Mexico, lying to him because he assured him that the club had the same working conditions as in Barcelona.
