Shortly after two years since the Atlético fans joined in one of the crowdfunding most special in its history, that of the collection of 130,000 euros to erect a statue in honor of Luis Aragonés in the Metropolitan Wanda, the work already has a date. The world you will be able to know the sculpture in which the artist Alicia Huertas has worked. It will be next Friday, October 29, in an act, as reported by the fans, organized by Atlético in which the family of the yearned will be present Wise.
His phrases are still present in every day of the Atleti. That “win, win and win again.” The teaching forever that “the shield is not stepped on.” His name in the stands when the games press. His name is already part of the surroundings of the Wanda Metropolitano, with that street that leads to the same offices of the rojiblanco club.
What is known about the work is that it has been carved in bronze, in life size of Luis, who died in 2014, raised on a base built with stones from the old Vicente Calderón stadium., which is no longer there, but which no one will be able to forget either. Luis and that field go hand in hand in the memories. With a contribution from 15 euros, fans who wished could participate in crowdfunding. In return, they would receive a coin minted on purpose, which would certify their participation in this project, which, from Friday 29, will also belong to everyone who goes to the Metropolitan and stops at the foot of his statue. Forever.
