Alexis Salles, captain of the French team gentlemen in 2020 ? In 2 days, the Executive Committee of the French Tennis Federation will meet to appoint the captains of the French teams of padel 2020.

In gentlemen, Alexis Salles appears in pole position to be renewed as captain of the team of padel gentlemen.

Until then, the Toulouse made a faultless. Both with the FFT and with the players, it is driven by a good dynamic with ultimately very good results. The men's team is getting stronger every year and is catching up with Italy and Portugal.

Today, France has “almost” become a medalist during the next world in Doha.

If we must not forget Brazil, a regular in 3rd place, behind the competition is huge. And Alexis Salles, who knows the team perfectly, could bring his experience and a continuity in the work carried out so far.

Another element to take into account: The FFT has not said for the moment that Alexis Salles would not be renewed in the France Team of Padel. A signal that means a lot. The former pair of Alexis, Patrick Fouquet at the ladies' is not part of the shortlist on March 13.

Among the ladies, it is a safe bet that Robin Haziza will be the new captain of the French team. He seems to tick all the boxes of the FFT accumulating a great experience already in the France team as a player, but also as a captain. If this is confirmed, he would thus withdraw as a player on the France men's team this year. This weekend, observers-players noted with a lot of humor and kindness that Robin Haziza was watching the live of the Open Ladies of Denain - P1000 and that he “even asked for the score“. Robin, already in his role as captain?

Appointment on March 13 to confirm or not these forecasts.
