Mariners chief executive Shaun Mielekamp is delighted to have secured Garcia’s signature.

 

“This signing of Luis Garcia is not just a coup for the Central Coast Mariners but also the Hyundai A-League,” Mielekamp said. 

“It’s great that the people of Christchurch have the chance to see a legend of world football play in their backyards which is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

“Luis Garcia will be making the trip Christchurch and we urge all football and even non-football fans to get out there and witness a piece of football history in New Zealand.”
