The city government, in the presence of Emanuel Ginobili, presented the Paseo de la Gloria in the South Coast, to be statues of renowned figures of Argentine sports. The four-time NBA champion San Antonio and creditor with Olympic gold in Athens in 2004 was the first character to be distinguished.

This new attraction will extend from Achával Tristan Rodriguez Avenue and Azucena Villaflor to Viamonte. In addition to the sculpture of "Manu", the works of Guillermo Vilas, Gabriela Sabatini, Roberto de Vicenzo, Luciana Aymar, Lionel Messi, Pascual Perez, Hugo Porta, Diego Maradona and Juan Manuel Fangio will be included.

The statues are by the artist Carlos Benavidez, realistic sculptor, known for his numerous works for collectors, both Argentina and the United States, Spain, the UK and Germany.

That is badass and well deserved. Few people will accomplish more in any field than Manu Ginobili has in chosen profession. He is dedicated and competitive on a very high level. Congrats to him!

nice recognition for Manu and couldn't come at a better time since he now has to retire from his international career.
