Go Behind the Scenes
On top of world-class training, groups also get the opportunity to receive a behind the scenes tour of the La Rosaleda stadium and watch Malaga CF in action – another tour highlight. This is no ordinary soccer tour, but gives budding players the opportunity to receive professional soccer training from one of Spain’s biggest clubs. Could this be the destination for your team’s next tour?
“Thanks for organising such a memorable and professional experience that we will all never forget. This was the first overseas trip that I have organised and I was surprised how easy it was to organise and run. The inspiresport staff both in the UK and Spain took a huge amount of pressure off myself and other members of the staff. I relish the chance to work on our next trip together”

Your Malaga CF Tour Will Include
Malaga CF – The Club
Malaga CF is a professional football club based in Malaga, Spain. The club was founded in 1904 and is generally seen as the successor to CD Málaga, one of the most historical Andalusian football clubs, by being a near-identical looking football club that even shares the same fan-base and traditions, although in legal terms it’s a different entity with a separate register and another founding date, that of its former reserve team, Atlético Malagueño.
Malaga CF plays its home matches at the La Rosaleda Stadium, which has a capacity of over 30,000 spectators. The club’s biggest rivals are fellow Andalusian clubs Sevilla FC and Granada CF. Malaga CF has a strong focus on youth development and has produced several notable players over the years, including Santi Cazorla, Isco, and Julio Baptista.
Atalaya Park Training Facilities and Hotel
Located in the very heart of the Costa del Sol of Andalucía, between Estepona and Marbella, and right next to the sea, Atalaya Park is the training ground and academy facility of Malaga CF. The facility covers an area of approximately 50,000 square meters and includes several football pitches, a gym, a medical center, and residential accommodations for academy players. Atalaya Park also houses the administrative offices of Malaga CF’s youth academy. The training ground has undergone several renovations and improvements in recent years to modernize its facilities and improve the quality of training for players. Atalaya Park is considered one of the top training grounds in Andalusia and has played an important role in the development of young talent at Malaga CF, which has produced several successful players who have gone on to play for top-level clubs in Spain and abroad.

Malaga Tourist Information
Málaga is a port city on southern Spain’s Costa del Sol, known for its high-rise hotels and resorts jutting up from yellow-sand beaches. Looming over that modern skyline are the city’s 2 massive hilltop citadels, the Alcazaba and ruined Gibralfaro, remnants of Moorish rule. The city’s soaring Renaissance cathedral is nicknamed La Manquita (“one-armed lady”) because one of its towers was curiously left unbuilt.
