Excellent harmony between coach and club
Sporting Gijon coach Abelardo Fernandez put pen to paper after weeks of negotiations to sign a new contract with the Asturian club that will run until June 2020.
The 46-year-old has been associated with the club for most of
his career, coming through their youth team before playing for them and then
leading them as head coach from 2014 onwards.
"Sporting wants to build its project around one of our own,
someone who was trained in [Sporting's training ground] Mareo and who is an
expert of the club, its philosophy and its environment," a club statement
said.
"The excellent harmony between the coach, the
administration department and the sporting directors, along with the
established work model and the club's economic outlook, ensures there is a
promising future."
Los Rojiblancos also thanked the coach's willingness to take on
the 'huge responsibility' of coaching the first team.
The club play its first LaLiga game of the season on Sunday
against Athletic Club and will look to build on last season, when they avoided
relegation on the final day.
