Was it Bastien Blanqué and Thomas Leygue were there new pair 2021 ? An idea that is gaining ground even if today, we believe that Robin Haziza and Jérémy Scatena are better placed than winning the scalp of the triple Champion of France.

However, Thomas has more than one trick in his game to seduce Bastien.

Leygue: The future of padel French

Thomas is a player with enormous potential. And there are many who are betting on a bright future for our young Frenchman on the national circuit, but also on the professional circuit.

He has the athleticism, the hand and the motivation. that's already a lot!

19 years old, Thomas Leygue already has to his credit a long CV in the junior teams but also in senior with this tremendous experience acquired during the European Championships of padel in November 2018 in Rome.

For 3 years, the young Frenchman has passed many milestones. And with his partner Nicolas Trancart, he managed to strengthen his game.

Bastien: The cards in hand

Will it be enough to become the partner of Bastien Blanqué ? It all depends mainly on Toulouse. He is now the master of the game, dredged up by many players and he is spoiled for choice. Everything will depend on what Bastien is really looking for.

Indeed, if Thomas Leygue has undeniable intrinsic qualities, he lacks today this regularity in the matches which may be lacking. He can have the faults of his qualities: Too much gluttony can be a bad fault in the padel. And frustration can quickly set in.

But he is an intelligent player, aware of his small shortcomings, with a family and a team that know how to help him develop in his passion. If today, it is difficult to know if the caterpillar will hatch, we know that he can become a very good player.

Bastien Blanqué can thus make this bet to bet on Thomas. It will take courage, because Thomas is today a tone below Robin Haziza and Jérémy Scatena. He now lacks experience and a more robust game. But it's all a matter of time. Is Bastien ready to guide him and offer him this chance to take a step forward?

An association that will be

We are not sure that the association will be done at the beginning of 2021. We bet that it will be done one day, no matter what. Because the motivation is the same. And in the field, these are men who can get along very well.

If the Leygue / Blanqué association is confirmed, the pair will necessarily be dangerous on the circuit. But she will not be favorite against the pair Tison / Bergeron. And against pairs like Moreau / Auradou, Peyrou / Maigret, Lopes / Authier, and other pairs of the French top 20, there could be breakage if the French circuit resumes in the next quarter.

This young pair would have in their pocket, a trump card that could make the difference: it is the work capacity of the two players. We know that Bastien and Thomas are competitors and will be keen to show that they can do great things. Especially since Ramiro Choya, Bastien's famous professional coach, could be called upon in this project.
