Reasons To Adopt

Málaga CF work as a second team because they come with their own geography: Spain, La Rosaleda, and a set of rivalries you will absorb faster than you expect.

Modern era club
Formed in 1948, so the whole story is documented, arguable and still being written. Join now and you were basically there from the start.
Loaded cabinet
9 distinct honours on record, including Segunda División. Adopt them and you inherit expectation, which is more fun than it sounds when the trophies keep coming.
Proper ground
La Rosaleda takes roughly 30,044, big enough for atmosphere, small enough that you can learn where the singing corner is on your first visit.
You get a nickname
Known as Los Albicelestes (The White and Sky-Blues) Los Blanquiazules (The White and Blue. That is your new shorthand, your search term and your excuse for buying a scarf.
