In this case, Spanish, with native teachers from there, what do they look for in the players, because one wants to reach professionalism at that age, play in Europe, so that they realize what is the methodology that they are looking for in those first division clubs there in Spain”.

The most important thing that the boys are going to experience is that they are going to spend a whole week, from June 19 to 23, training with them and they will be able to realize what they are aiming for. Many times the kids here, as they are used to having the same teacher, believe that it is part of the landscape but when they come to reality that they are going to start demanding some kind of situation, they will surely realize it, so all that kind of of experiences, we are going to have the possibility of having them here”.

He surely comes with another mentality of being in high performance football and it is a great advantage that we have and even more so now as this camp is going to take place ”.
