Miguel Ángel Ramírez made his first appearance in front of the Swedish media after leading his first training session with Malmö FF, and the Spanish coach’s words made his philosophy clear from day one. The coach highlighted the energy of the group and his intention to establish a new identity through daily training, reflecting the competitive and demanding mindset that has defined his career.
Ramírez quoted head coach Mikel Arteta to illustrate his message about preparation: “We can’t train in a zoo if we’re going into the jungle at the weekend,” underlining that the level of demand in every training session must be high in order to be ready for the challenges of the season.
The coach also emphasized the passion he brought to the opening session: an intense workout, with high involvement and a coaching staff fully focused on getting to know each player better. In his own words, the season will begin by building a solid foundation day by day, both physically and in terms of the group’s mentality.
Beyond the anecdote of the quote, Miguel Ángel Ramírez made it clear that he expects a season in which daily standards will be the foundation for competing for the club’s major objectives, and that every training session should be an opportunity to improve and grow as a team.
Finally, the Canary Islands coach shared his first impressions of the squad: “I’ve tried to get to know them better and, of course, gather information about them — what the team needs and what they need individually. I got a very good impression of each of them, so they are very good guys.”
