Valencia CF and El Corte Inglés have a parallel history of success and roots in the city of Valencia, which we celebrate today with the opening of this exhibition," he said.

The event was attended by Juan Sabater, Regional Director of El Corte Inglés, who added that "Valencia CF and El Corte Inglés have always been committed to the development of Valencian society."

VCF Foundation director, Pablo Mantilla, VCF Footballers Association president, Fernando Giner, and club ambassadors Ricardo Arias, Miguel Tendillo and Miguel Ángel Bossio were also present.
