Teo Swee Wei said that “To speak of Roberto Gil is to speak of a Valencia CF legend. Today we gather here to pay a well-deserved tribute with the presentation of this book. We return to Riba-Roja de Túria, where you already welcomed us for the celebration of the exhibition dedicated to him, organised by the VCF Foundation's Heritage Department, as well as the Algirós Forum focused on him."

 "Roberto Gil, as Valencia CF captain, coach and technical secretary, represented and represents the VCF DNA."

“Les cosetes de Roberto Gil, un capità tranquil” is the work of Josep Franco, with illustrations by Esperança Martínez.
