Career & Clubs
When his professional career ended, García worked at his own sweet shop until 1960, when he returned to football as talent scout and trainer of the youth divisions at Racing Club. "We do not want players to be created overnight. Footballers cannot escape the human law of evolution", said García by then. During his last years, García was in a situation of poverty and used to go from bar to bar, saying to customers "I am Enrique García, the best left winger of all times, would you invite me to have a coffee?" García died on August 23, 1969. He was only 56 years old.
