Rudi García

Rudi García (born 20 February 1964) is a French football manager and former player, last in charge of Roma.

Playing career

Rudi García's father, José, was a Spaniard expatriate who played football at a professional level for Sedan and Dunkerque. Rudi García's grandparents had left Andalusia for the Ardennes region during the Spanish Civil War.

When José became the coach of local team Corbeil-Essonnes, he drafted his son into the squad, where Rudi played until cadet level. As Corbeil didn't have a national cadets side, Rudi joined the Viry-Châtillon team. He was 18 when he obtained his baccalauréat and signed for Lille, where he would spend two years as an intern and four as part of the professional squad.

Playing as an attacking midfielder, Rudi García's first goal for Lille was a notable affair. In December 1984, Lille travelled to the Parc des Princes to face Paris Saint-Germain. With both sides tied at 2-2, García netted to earn his side a win over the Parisian club. He made about 170 appearances for the Northern club which he left in 1988.

It's late at night
And I'm feeling down
There're couples standing on the street
Sharing summer kisses and silly sounds
So I step inside
Pour a glass of wine
With a full glass and an empty heart
I search for something to occupy my mind
But you are in my head
Swimming forever in my head
Tangled in my dreams
Swimming forever
So listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know, oh, oh
So listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go...
Now it's morning light
And it's cold outside
Caught up in a distant dream
I turn and think that you are by my side
So I leave my bed
And I try to dress
Wandering why my mind plays tricks
And fools me into thinking you are there
But you're just in my head
Swimming forever in my head
Not lying in my bed
Just swimming forever
So listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know, oh, oh
So listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go...
I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know, oh, oh
I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go...
You are in my head
Swimming forever in my head
Tangled in my dreams
Swimming forever
(Swimming forever)
Swimming forever
So listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know, oh, oh
So listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go...
I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know, oh, oh
