After the dismissal of Sergio Pellicer, Málaga has entrusted the first team's bench to Juan Francisco Funes, as confirmed by the Andalusian club. 

Funes arrives after gaining experience with Atlético Malagueño since the 2020-21 season and achieving promotion to the 2ª RFEF with the reserve team last season.

"Juan Francisco Funes is a coach specialized in the development of young players, with a great commitment to the blue and white colors and extensive knowledge of the Club's structure and its players," explains Málaga in its statement.

Funes inherits a Málaga team tied on points with the teams currently marking the relegation zone in the Second Division.
