'THE CUP OF 39', NEW BOOK IN THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY

18/09/2018
Juan Luis Franco, the author of the work, affirmed that 'it is full of anecdotes and information that has not been published before'

Yesterday evening in the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán the presentation for the book 'The Cup of 39' took place, written by Juan Luis Franco, which marks the latest addition to the Sevilla Football Club's Department of History.

Among those in attendance were veterans such as Lora, Cardo, Gallego, Rodri, Carmelo, Kepa, David Castedo and Antonio Álvarez, as well as the former physiotherapist Domingo Pérez. tweet Also in attendance were the relatives of the legendary forward Stuka Raimundo, one of the winners of the Cup of 39.

The author of the book Juan Luis Franco took to the mic to say that 'it is a work full of anecdotes and information that has not been published before. This was Sevilla's final, but we also have to recognise Rácing de Ferrol, who were also there competing in it.'

'There is no doubt that the Cup of 39 was a national tournament for Spain'

 

 

Furthermore, the president of Sevilla FC, José Castro, thanked Franco for his efforts to create a new source of information about its history: 'The Cup of 39 was the beginning of a great decade. I want to congratulate them because they never stop in their eagerness to illuminate our history.'

Juan Luis Franco ended the presentation by declaring that 'the Cup of 39 was a national tournament for Spain; This book disproves all arguments against it.'
