Many experts are convinced that padel is the sport of the new millennium. That is why many investors decide to take a close interest in it, and recently, it is Portuguese footballers who have decided to take the plunge.

It all started with Rui Caetano, who decided to retire to open padel clubs. The ex-international was imitated by two other players who wear the Portuguese selection jersey: Diogo Dalot, who opened a club in Porto last May with Paquito Navarro, and of course Cristiano Ronaldo, who decided to invest in a colossal project in his native country.

As Dalot rightly says: “Padel is a sport that is becoming increasingly fashionable and has grown in recent years, not only in Portugal, but also around the world, so it made sense for me to invest in this sport.” Portuguese players are not the only footballers to bet on the padel business. We are of course thinking of Zinedine Zidane, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Francesco Totti...And we wouldn't be surprised if other football stars followed the same line!
