There is nothing more attractive than highlighting the epic of little ones when they grow up. It is worth stopping to applaud what is happening in Girona with its football club and to be infected by the enthusiasm of thousands of citizens who are proud of their team's feat. Girona is the sole leader of the League and, at least, it will be for the next two weeks taking advantage of the break in national team matches. Yesterday they won against Rayo Vallecano and added their sixth consecutive victory away from home. It is said early, but the red and white team has 34 points in 13 games, that is, they have won everything except a draw and a defeat.
Past, present and future. No one wants to remember the past, when it was fighting until very recently in the Third Division and Second B. The present is wonderful and excites its fans, who no longer dream of permanence, but rather of their team competing for the title. League until the end against the eternal favorites, Real Madrid and Barcelona. The future is promising, since it has the support of the powerful City Football Group, which has 47% of the club's ownership, and this predicts secure economic and management stability. Next June, the first phase of the club's new sports city in Vilablareix will be inaugurated. The complex, called City Football Academy Girona, has 23 hectares. To give you an idea, the Barça Masia in Sant Joan Despí does not reach 14. It must be the factory of great players for the club.
The old idea of Ferran Soriano, when he was vice president of Barcelona, of creating franchises of the Blaugrana club throughout the world has finally been put into practice by Manchester City, of which he is currently its CEO, in addition to being CEO of the entire group. City currently owns thirteen clubs (4 in America, 5 in Europe and 4 in Asia). It is not true that the Girona club lives at City's expense in sports, because, in fact, there are only two players in the squad on loan from the English club, but the support of the brand gives a lot of security. As Soriano explained in his book The Ball Doesn't Enter by Chance, in 2013, a football club can succeed if it knows how to apply traditional management strategies. Girona is the best example of this today.
