The project to pedestrianise the historic centre of the town was launched by architect Salvador Moreno Peralta

:: ALBERTO GÓMEZ TORREMOLINOS. Torremolinos is to undergo one of its most major urban transformations of recent decades. During a meeting held on Monday, Malaga architect Salvador Moreno Peralta presented the project for the renovation of Plaza Costa del Sol and part of the Avenida Palma de Mallorca. The area will be pedestrianised with the aim of creating a Grand Boule- vard with shaded spaces, water features and green areas. The centre of Torremolinos was closed to traffic more than 18 months ago, but a large municipal debt and the lack of a budget have prevented the work going ahead.

The forward is wanted by both Atlético Madrid and the Merseyside club but the former’s transfer ban could see them lose out

:: ANTONIO GÓNGORA MALAGA. Much to the annoyance of those at Malaga CF, the future of star striker Sandro Ramírez remains unresolved. The club’s top scorer last campaign has a release clause of just six million euros which has attracted the interest of Atlético Madrid and several Premier League teams, most notably Everton. In fact, Ronald Koeman himself was spotted in the stands at La Rosaleda, but that didn’t stop Atlé- tico from stealing a march and making an offer for the player. The capital club’s transfer ban handed down by the Court of Arbi- tration for Sport (CAS), though, has complicated matters.
