Le  pairs transfer market  It continues to shake up the circuit. And at the start of the 2026 season, the phenomenon has already reached enormous proportions. After only  four tournaments played  ( Riyadh, Gijón, Cancún and Miami ), the male table of  Premier Padel  has already been profoundly remodeled.

In both the upper and lower reaches of the rankings, separations have multiplied:  Sanyo Gutierrez / Gonza Alfonso ,  Juan Tello / Edu Alonso ,  the “Javis” ,  Maxi Arce / Pablo Lijó … so many duos that exploded onto the scene in the space of a few weeks.

Result:  The upcoming tournaments will offer a whole new landscape .

 Newgiza and Brussels will launch the new circuit map 

Some new associations will begin as early as the  Newgiza P2 , expected from  13 to 18 April , while others will wait for the  Brussels P2 ,  20 to 26 April , to enter the stage.

À  NewGiza In particular, we will discover:

  •  Gonza Alfonso / Javi Barahona 
  •  José Jiménez / Javi García 
  •  David Gala / Íñigo Jofre 
  •  Sanyo Gutierrez / Victor Ruiz 
  •  Miguel Lamperti / Martin Abud 

Then to  Brussels , it will be the turn of:

  •  Juan Tello / Maxi Arce 
  •  Edu Alonso / Aimar Goñi 
  •  Manu Castaño / Xisco Gil 
  •  José Antonio Diestro / Maxi Sánchez Blasco 
  •  Pablo Lijó / Pablo García 

In other words :  the men's draw will almost start afresh. .

 A largely revamped top 25 

If the top two pairs in the world remain unchanged,  The rest of the top 25 has been largely redistributed. .

At the top of the hierarchy, nothing is changing for the moment:

  1.  Tapia / Coello  -  41 820 points 
  2.  Galan / Chingotto  -  34 680 points 

Behind this, the first truly significant change concerns the  Theoretical third place in the new top 25 , now occupied by:

  1.  Franco Stupaczuk / Mike Yanguas  -  12 345 points 
  2.  Juan Lebrón / Leo Augsburger  -  12 220 points 
  3.  Paquito Navarro / Fran Guerrero  -  11 320 points 

This area will be particularly interesting to follow, as several of these pairs can very quickly get closer or double up depending on the initial results.

 An ultra-dense intermediate zone 

Right behind, we find a very tight block with several pairs capable of upsetting the hierarchy:

  1.  Coki Nieto / Jon Sanz  -  10 704 points 
  2.  Momo González / Martín Di Nenno  -  9 280 points 
  3.  Javi Garrido / Lucas Bergamini  -  7 245 points 
  4.  Javi Leal / Pablo Cardona  -  5 510 points 
  5.  Juanlu Esbrí / Álex Ruiz  -  5 025 points 

Then came several very interesting projects:

  1.  Jairo Bautista / Lucas Campagnolo  -  4 622 points 
  2.  Tolito Aguirre / Álex Arroyo  -  4 595 points 
  3.  Gonza Alfonso / Javi Barahona  -  4 389 points 
  4.  Juan Tello / Maxi Arce  -  4 267 points 
  5.  Aimar Goñi / Edu Alonso  -  4 202 points 
  6.  Javi García – José Jiménez: 4.130 points 
  7.  David Gala – Íñigo Jofre: 3.884 points 
  8.  Sanyo Gutiérrez – Victor Ruiz: 3.866 points 
  9.  Sánchez Blasco – García Diestro: 3.421 points  
  10.  Pol Hernández – Guille Collado: 3.390 points 
  11.  Alex Chozas – Tino Libaak: 3.347 points 
  12.  Pablo Lijó – Pablo García: 3.075 points 
  13.  Javi Ruiz – Gonzalo Rubio: 2.960 points 
  14.  Maxi Sánchez – Juani Rubini: 2.216 points 
  15.  Manu Castaño – Xisco Gil: 2.195 points 

This is probably where the biggest suspense lies. Because between the  13th and 18th pair The differences are minimal and  Two good tournaments can change everything .

 Pairs to watch very closely 

Some new associations are attracting particular attention.

This is obviously the case for  Tello / Arce , a highly anticipated pairing after the separation between  Juan Tello  et  Eduardo Alonso .
Same thing for  Edu Alonso / Aimar Goñi , a young, explosive pair, and one that could quickly become very dangerous if the chemistry clicks.

Another interesting duo:  Pablo Lijó / Pablo García , which will form an aggressive and ambitious pair, in an area of ​​the standings where everything can change very quickly.

And further down, you'll also need to keep an eye on:

  •  David Gala / Íñigo Jofre 
  •  Sanyo Gutierrez / Victor Ruiz 
  •  Diestro / Sánchez Blasco 
  •  Manu Castaño / Xisco Gil 

These are all duos who arrive with different objectives, but with a real desire to  take advantage of this new redistribution of cards .

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 !
