The athlete from Muleño, silver at the European Championships in Munich, was entertained by his neighbors this Friday before crossing the street to visit his grandparents, “whom I haven’t seen in four years”
Mula and the Muleños know that every time Moha Katir, their most illustrious neighbor, participates, they are guaranteed to throw a party. This Friday it was time to take to the streets to congratulate the Spanish middle distance runner of Moroccan descent on his recent silver medal in the 5,000 meters of the European open-air event in Munich. Katir arrived at the Plaza del Ayuntamiento with his father, his sister and his girlfriend Sofia, a young Portuguese woman who wanted to be with the champion yesterday.
Mayor Juan Jesús Moreno García was waiting for him in the hall of the Consistory, along with the rest of the members of the Corporation, who welcomed Mo, whom they thanked for keeping the promise he made on July 22, when he assured which improve on the bronze medal he earned in the 1,500 event at the last World Cup in Eugene, Oregon.
In an impromptu press conference, Katir spoke about his most immediate plans and his future sporting commitments. “The first thing I’m going to do is go on vacation to Morocco, to visit my paternal family, who I haven’t seen in four years, especially my grandfather.”
Regarding his sporting activity, he indicated that “I have to talk first with Gabi Lorente, my coach, to finish the season. I don’t know yet if I’m going to do anything or not.” When asked if he will participate in a Diamond League event, he was blunt. “No, I’ve already closed that one this season.”
The Spanish athlete went to the balcony of the town hall, from where he thanked the neighbors who wanted to be by his side this Friday for the affection they showed him. “The affection and gratitude you show me is mutual. I am very proud that I feel muleño. The next time I see myself with you, I’ll try to make the metal different. Better if possible than the one I bring you today. The crowd cheered their idol’s new promise, which they cheered from the square: “Katir, Katir, Katir.” Then there was a photo shoot with his family and his girlfriend, who resisted a starring role in a day when he attracted a lot of attention.
