Chair Richie Garcia of the  Philippine Sports Commission is leaving this Sunday for Madrid, Spain, to start  a four-country swing in Europe and South America  to discover foreign athletes with Filipino lineage and tap foreign coaches for the national team.

“We might find talents in Madrid that we can invite to play for the national team,”  said Garcia.  “We’ll also focus on looking for training camps.”

PSC executive director Guillermo Iroy, who will join Garcia  in  the 18-day trip, said they’ve already arranged a meeting with the Filipino community in Madrid in a bid to find football and lawn tennis talents.

From Madrid, the PSC chief will travel to Brasilia and sign a bilateral agreement with top Brazilian sports officials.
