Marcelino García Toral continues to expand his legacy at Villarreal CF. In the match played against Getafe, the Asturian coach secured his 93rd victory in charge of the Yellow Submarine, becoming the manager with the most wins in the club’s history. With this achievement, Marcelino surpasses the 92 victories recorded by Manuel Pellegrini during his time at Villarreal, further strengthening a trajectory defined by success, stability and the competitive ambition that has guided his work from the very beginning.
This new milestone arrives at a particularly brilliant moment for the coach. In recent weeks, Marcelino has been at the centre of some of the most significant achievements of the season: he was named LaLiga’s Coach of the Month for November following the team’s outstanding performances, he has led Villarreal to the best league start in the club’s history, and he has also become the manager with the most matches overseen at Villarreal CF, surpassing 260 official games. Each of these accomplishments highlights the impact of his leadership and the continued growth of the project he is guiding.
Under his direction, Villarreal has developed a strong and recognisable identity, built on structure, intensity and ambition. The team’s evolution during this period reflects constant work and a deep conviction that has allowed the club to establish itself as one of the most competitive sides in the championship.
The 93rd victory is more than a statistical milestone: it is the reflection of a solid, enduring relationship between Marcelino and Villarreal CF —a story that continues to grow and that is leaving a profound mark on the club’s history and its supporters.
