Two weeks from 2024 World Padel Championships, which will once again take place in Qatar, the coach of the Spanish team, Juanjo Gutiérrez, confided in our colleagues at Relief regarding his choices (Coello, Galán, Lebrón, Navarro, Sanz, Nieto, Yanguas, Ruiz), the level of the opponents and the feeling of revenge towards Argentina after the defeat in the last edition.
The teams do not have the same level of experience as Argentina and Spain.
"We played the European Championships (in Sardinia, where Spain has been wandering again). We know perfectly well the level of the teams we are facing. Unfortunately, today, the paddle is not yet global enough for other selections to have the same level of experience as theArgentina (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) and the Spain »
The desire for revenge is normal
"The desire to revenge is normal, obviously, with all the positive aspects that sport instills. It's a healthy revenge."
Lebron comes to play on the left
" Today, Juan Lebrón comes into the selection to play left, as he does in competition."
Lebrón / Galán, and why not…
"Each of them (Gallant / Lebrón) told me individually that he had no problem cohabiting or being together in the team."
Alex Ruiz, the reasons for his selection
"On the plan sports stakeholders , since Lebrón will play on the left, we need another player on the right. álex proved to me that wearing the spain jersey weighs less on him than on others. Did he have a bad year? Yes, but Alex is a special player in whom I have confidence.
