1BSPORTS 1B Sports June 15th News Recently, Real Madrid announced the list of new first-team coaches on their official website, including five new faces, goalkeeper coach Louis Lopis and physical fitness coach Pintus remained.
The key point of Alonso’s first training at Valdebebas was the high-intensity and varied training, which was mainly reflected in the pressure of the ball, pass, midfield and the whole game. Although there are many players absent, this training will help better understand the new coach’s tactical intentions.
This training is to prepare for the Club World Cup, with 11 first-team players participating, but only five players (Vazquez, Fran Garcia, Sebalos, Rodrigo and Asensio) completed the full training.
In addition, there are 10 youth training players (Mesterre, Fran Gonzalez, Chema, Eusi, Gonzalo Garcia, Jacob Ramon, Muñoz, Fortea, Aguado and Mario Martin).
Sebas Parrilla (deputy), Alberto Ensinna (assistant), Beniat Labyne (analyst) and Ismail Cameford Lopez (physical coach) are the first new members to debut. Before heading to the Club World Cup, Alonso further expanded his coaching team, adding three new members to cover all areas.
Javier Anaíz (former performance director of the Mexican Football Association) will be responsible for strength training in the gym, while Ismail Fernandez (Doctor of Sports Science) will focus on analyzing data from all Real Madrid players. Both have worked with Real Madrid before and have adopted a new approach called Thermohuman.
In addition, Alonso also found a third assistant to be responsible for the work on the field. Pintus is currently in uncertainty and his specific role in the new position has not been determined, although he will travel to the United States with the team.
After years of collaboration, Pintus may become Real Madrid’s performance director, responsible for evaluating, developing and improving players’ performance, helping to gain more detailed knowledge, understand their strengths and areas of possible improvements.
