It happened to the midfielder Nico Gonzalez He arrived from Barça in the summer of 2023 and had minutes until January 2024, when he took the direction his coach wanted and became a permanent fixture. But there are more examples and one, very important, was explained this Thursday at the Casina Poste in Rome on the occasion of the presentation of the 25 finalists for the Golden Boy, with the Barça player Lamine Yamal as a favorite without discussion.

We had to do specific work to make it a business after a year. We show him the videos and then we work in the field. The spaces, the moment to be aggressive, the zone, the pressure… When he understood himself as an intelligent player, he took the leap in quality,” he explained.

And he revealed some advice he gave him: “If I dance samba and eat picanha at the weekend, I won’t be able to play for Real Madrid. And he’s been there for six years!”
