While the 2024 season is not yet over, the winter transfer window is already starting to stir up the backstage of professional padel. The media and fans are speculating about separations and new associations, suggesting a redistribution of the cards for next year. Among these rumors, one association particularly attracts attention: that of Gemma Triay Pons, current world number 3, and Argentina Delfi Brea.

An unexpected separation?

Gemma Triay, who shone alongside Claudia fernandez in 2024, contributed to the emergence of this young player on the international scene. This duo, considered by many to be a winning bet, could however not survive the winter. The rumors are becoming more and more insistent: Gemma would consider teaming up with Delfi Brea in 2025.

Delfi Brea between two alliances?

This choice could come as a surprise, as Delfi Brea is currently associated with the Spanish Bea Gonzalez, who made a remarkable comeback after her injury. The duo posted solid results in 2024, and the complicity between the two players seemed obvious. However, Bea's performances, while promising, still lack regularity, a key element to compete with the world's top pair.

The shadow of Josemaria/Sanchez

The real problem is not the performance of the current pairs, but rather theoverwhelming domination of the pair Ariana Sanchez and Paula Josemaria. Once again, the latter finished the season in first place worldwide, with more than 4000 points ahead of Gemma Triay. This gap testifies to their supremacy and pushes the other teams to reinvent their strategies.

A promising association

If the Triay/Brea association is confirmed, it could represent a serious challenger for the top of the rankings. Gemma Triay is recognized as one of the most consistent players and as the best backhand player in recent years. Delfi Brea, for her part, has an undeniable talent and an aggressiveness that would perfectly complement Gemma's style.

“If this pair is officially confirmed, it will be a exceptional team ! Gemma Triay brings exemplary consistency, while Delfi could reach her full potential. They could well become the new world number 1. "

One thing is certain, the 2025 transfer window promises to be eventful, and this potential association could well redistribute the cards in the face of the hegemony of Sanchez/Josemaria. Stay tuned…
