It's a little bomb in the universe of padel and the European Championships padel. Our colleague and partner Jorge Filipe Figueira from Padel Wall confirms that Spain and Portugal will participate in the European Championships of Padel in Lisbon from November 4 to 10.

This means that Spain and Portugal, two flagship nations of the padel European and World Championships will not participate in the other European Championships padel organized by the International Federation of Padel in Italy at the same time.

This information is also validated by the European Association of Padel. Even if by November things can certainly still change.

Indeed, last July during theeuroamerica Padel cup, Alfredo Garbisu, the President of the Spanish Federation, Ricardo Oliveira, the President of the Portuguese Federation and finally Philippe Cerfont, the President of the EPA spoke about the success of this Ryder Cup of padel, but also talk about the future by talking about the European Championships of padel in Lisbon.

These two great nations will not be alone. We can also tell you that Hungary, a nation that speaks more and more padel, carried among others by the great Milán Terkovics, one of the top players of the Canaries and who will participate in some stages of the World Padel Tour, should end up at the European Championships in padel from Portugal.

Recall that on the side of the European Championships of padel organized by the FIP, France and Italy have already confirmed that they will be in Rome. Russia, a nation where the padel is also developing could participate in the European Championships in Italy although that remains to be confirmed.

Some nations in a position "very uncomfortable politically" are thinking of proposing 2 delegations: One that would go to Italy and the other to Portugal.
