Paquito Navarro, the icon of Spanish padel | Padel Club #16

Paquito Navarro the icon of Spanish padel Padel Club

Paquito Navarro at its finest. The Sevillian becomes the protagonist in episode 16 of Pádel Club, the Diario AS and Cadena Ser padel podcast, in a monograph where he appears natural, simple and mature.

And it is that Paquito Navarro is an icon of the racket sport in Spain. A reference with which to review the last years of padel, his maturity as a player and the current stage with Martin Di Nennowho, for him, is the undisputed number one in his sport.

A Navarro who, looking back, now in his thirties and looking to a future of 5 or 6 more years in the elite, knows that it will not be “the Rafa Nadal of padel”, but what he believes has been a pioneer and may be considered, perhaps, as the “santana hand” of your sport.

A Navarro who, already 33 years old and an absolute reference, analyzes the reality of paddle tennis, the contractual situation with World Padel Tourthe project Premier Padel and the union of the players under the PPA association in a year in which the players demand “freedom”.

And, in addition, Paquito is also preparing a possible job opportunity after his sports career. Without seeing himself as a coach, because he does not want to “put up with Paquito on duty”, he demands the spotlights, asks for the microphone and sketches a half smile when he imagines a future in media and television or talk about victory in the Copa del Rey your beloved Real Betis.

Paquito Navarro, in essence.
