“It was a very easy decision. And whilst there were offers for me to choose a bigger role in Albacete and in other clubs in Spain, the offer to take charge of FC Goa was too good to pass on,” Pena was quoted as saying in a media statement. “My only focus now is to get FC Goa back to the top,” the new head coach added. A UEFA Pro License holder, the last two seasons saw Peña get into coaching following his retirement at the end of the 2019/20 season. He started his coaching career with the youth team of Lorca before moving on to UCAM Murcia. He had finished the 2020/21 season as the assistant coach of Lleida Esportiu’s senior team.
