The official press release from Alavés
“Luis García Plaza (Madrid, 12/1/1972) arrived in Vitoria-Gasteiz in the summer of 2022, with the aim of bringing the babazorro team back to the First Division. After a challenging season, which lasted 46 games (42 championship regular and 4 playoffs), the Albiazul team secured promotion to the top flight at the Ciutat de València.
In the current campaign, with García Plaza once again leading the Babazorro bench, Gasteiztarra’s team has always stayed out of the relegation places and has comfortably reached the safety zone, with four games to go. As coach of Alaves, the coach has so far made 90 appearances in the two seasons in which he has been in charge at Mendizorrotza, 36 of which in the EA SPORTS LIGA, with a record of 38 wins, 25 draws and 27 defeats. Deportivo Alavés and Luis García Plaza now sign a new two-season contract, thus sealing their commitment for the future to consolidate the project among the elite of national football.”
