We had seen Juani Mieres more coaching than playing for a while. We will see him one last time in uniform on the track, before finally bowing out.

It's a special year for the legends of the padel global. After the announcements of Pablo Lima et Juan Martin Diaz, who will end their career at the end of the year, it is Juani Mieres who announces his retirement. Unlike his two former teammates, the native of Bahia Blanca in Argentina is not going to wait until the end of the season.

The former world champion is going to play one last tournament, the Cordoba FIP Rise, before hanging up the pala.

During this tournament, which starts on August 19, Juani will be associated with the one he training since the start of the season, the talented young Ivan Ramirez. Together, the two men will form the seed 2, with the seed 1 consisting of local Xisco Gil and lifelong friend and former team-mate Miguel Lamperti of Mieres!
