Paco López will complete 100 games at the helm of Levante on Monday against Celta. The one from Silla, who arrived at Orriols in March 2018, after the dismissal of Juan Ramón López Muñiz, has won the privilege of being the Granota coach with the most matches directed in the highest category; with, in addition, the best balance of the 111 years of the club's history, signing 37 victories, 21 draws and 41 defeats in the national top flight.
It will do so at the Estadio de la Cerámica due to a new delay in the stadium construction, which speed up the work to try to reach the Alavés match. However, the date set would have meant a return to the movie script: the return to the renewed Ciutat de València and the centenary of Paco López on the bench.
However, He will do it in a field that he knows perfectly after his four years in the Villarreal structure, and in which he played the last game as 'local' against Real Madrid. Although Paco López longs for the charm of the Ciutat. Soon back.
The centenary comes to Silla in a pretext of crisis, with the bottom team after two consecutive defeats. Although the Valencian coach has already shown that he is prepared to weather the storm when the waters are rough. He focuses on what happens on the field. After overcoming an arduous start to the championship, the squad is preparing to stick its head out of the bottom of the table in the carousel of games to come.
