It was in the works, and now it's official: Tino Libaak et Gonza Alfonso will launch a new project together in 2026 The two Argentinians announced their partnership on social media, a few days after the announcement of the separation between Libaak et Alex Chozas after the Málaga P1 .
The message is clear: both players want to start a new chapter, eager to progress, learn, and fight together to achieve the best possible results. This all-Argentine partnership will undoubtedly be closely watched.
A project to take things to the next level
For Tino Libaak This change comes after an association with Alex Chozas which had potential, but didn't fully live up to expectations. On the circuit Premier Padel The pair never managed to get past the round of 16. A ceiling reached too quickly for two players with these ambitions.
With Gonza Alfonso Libaak will try to take that next step. Both Argentinians have the skills to set a high tempo, with impact, intensity, and a real ability to accelerate the game. On paper, the pair could be dangerous, especially if they quickly find their rhythm.
Expected debut at Pretoria P1
Their first appearance is scheduled for Pretoria P1 , where they are already registered together. This will be the real launch of this new project, with a clear initial objective: to establish momentum and successfully overcome this hurdle. round of XNUMX on Premier Padel .
It remains to be seen how the roles will be divided, and especially how quickly the pair will develop their automatic responses. But one thing is certain: with Libaak / Alfonso The men's transfer market continues to be active, and this new Argentinian association will soon have the opportunity to show what it can bring.
I discovered padel directly during a tournament, and frankly, I didn't really like it at first. But the second time, it was love at first sight, and since then, I haven't missed a single match. I'm even ready to stay up until 3am to watch a final of Premier Padel !
