Juan Lebron spoke to Spanish journalist Josep Pedreol on El Chiringuito TV. In an interview broadcast Thursday, the Spanish padel player returned to his separation with Alejandro GalánAfter winning 33 titles together and being number 1 for 3 years, the relationship is completely broken. How could it have ended so badly?

“I think I wasn't allowed to tell my truth. And no one knew my versionn. I'm a little hurt. Josep told me one day that we were friends. And honestly, I have a lump in my throat. I don't have never received a single call on his part. Not even a simple “How are you?”

A good time to talk about the separation?

While the pair Galan / Chingotto won in two sets against Coello / Tapia (6/3, 7/5) during the second Major of the year, Juan lebron spoke about the end of his collaboration with the Spanish player Alejandro Galán : “The truth was not told, and no one knew my version.”

Four years of historic collaboration

The two Spaniards shared the track of paddle de 2020 to 2024.
Then in March 2024, one of the most emblematic pairs of padel has ended its collaboration, following the decision of Gallant to turn the page on a four-year project marked by world domination.

Unprecedented domination

The two players made padel history by dominating the circuit during three consecutive seasons (2020, 2021, 2022) as world number 1. Their last season together, in 2023, ended in a title in Premier Padel et four titles on the World Padel Tour.

Let us remember that Lebron was also world number one with Paquito Navarro in 2019.

Juan Lebron: world No. 1… in Brazil. What irony!

New associations

  • Juan lebron, currently 6th in the world, is associated with the Argentinian Franco Stupaczuk, 5th in the world.
  • On the side ofAlejandro Galán, 3th in the world, his teammate is also Argentinian: Federico Chingotto, 3th in the world.

Italy Major: a tense clash

During the'Italy Major, the pair Lebron / Stupaczuk was eliminated by Galan / Chingotto in three sets (4-6, 7-6, 6-2) in two hours of play.

What if this was a call for a return?

The statements of Juan lebron Could they be a call to play again with his former Argentinian partner and find the world first place ?

If that were the case, it would obviously be very surprising. Rather, this interview simply reflects the Andalusian player's desire to tell a different story than the one we know.
