Rafa Nadal y SB levantarán un centro deportivo en Málaga

The city of Malaga is in full real estate boom. In recent years it has become one of the most attractive places in the country for investment. To the point that Rafael Nadal himself has also set his sights on the Andalusian town. The tennis player, together with the developer Sierra Blanca Estates, will be in charge of building a large sports center. A project that will be located next to the José María Martín Carpena Sports Palace and the 'Ciudad de Málaga' Athletics Stadium.

The reality is that this will be the first Rafa Nadal Club to be built outside the Balearic Islands, the Spanish athlete's homeland. The complex will consist of about 33,000 m2 of facilities that will be used by the tennis and padel club and school. In addition, the development will also have an underground parking lot that will alleviate the parking that would be lost on the surface when this complex is built.

"The future Rafa Nadal Club in Malaga designed by Sierra Blanca Estates would incorporate semi-covered clay courts, outdoor hard courts, numerous paddle tennis courts, a central court with stands to host sporting events, an outdoor swimming pool and a multipurpose building. which would incorporate facilities such as a fitness area and a crossfit area, a sports store, a restaurant, a spa and a museum dedicated to the figure and career of Rafael Nadal, among others," the promoters of the sports complex point out in La Opinión de Málaga.

For her part, Noelia Losada, Sports Councilor for the Malaga City Council, has also spoken about the project in the Ser Deportivos program. "The land belongs to the City Council, it would be another concession like those with private universities." "I have participated in many meetings regarding this possibility in the Carpena deterrent parking. A parking lot would have to be built underneath because those spaces cannot be lost. Different options were considered and it was decided that the sport would be tennis. It will be done by competition "To me it seems like great news that the parking is being used," he explained.
