Juan Lebron spoke to Spanish journalist Josep Pedreol  on El Chiringuito TV. In an interview broadcast Thursday,  the Spanish padel player  returned to his separation with  Alejandro Galán After winning 33 titles together and being number 1 for 3 years, the relationship is completely broken. How could it have ended so badly?

“I think I wasn't allowed to tell my truth. And  no one knew my version n.  I'm a little hurt . Josep told me one day that we were friends. And honestly, I have a lump in my throat. I don't have  never received a single call  on his part.  Not even a simple “How are you?” 

A good time to talk about the separation?

While the pair  Galan / Chingotto  won in two sets against  Coello / Tapia  (6/3, 7/5) during the second  Major  of the year,  Juan lebron  spoke about the end of his collaboration with the Spanish player  Alejandro Galán  : “The truth was not told, and no one knew my version.”

Four years of historic collaboration

The two Spaniards shared the track of  paddle  de  2020 to 2024 .
Then in  March 2024 , one of the most emblematic pairs of padel has ended its collaboration, following the decision of  Gallant  to turn the page on a four-year project marked by world domination.

Unprecedented domination

The two players made padel history by dominating the circuit during  three consecutive seasons  (2020, 2021, 2022) as  world number 1 . Their last season together, in  2023 , ended in a  title in Premier Padel  et  four titles on the World Padel Tour .

Let us remember that Lebron was also world number one with Paquito Navarro in 2019.

Juan Lebron: world No. 1… in Brazil. What irony!

New associations

  •  Juan lebron , currently  6th in the world , is associated with the Argentinian  Franco Stupaczuk ,  5th in the world .
  • On the side of Alejandro Galán ,  3th in the world , his teammate is also Argentinian:  Federico Chingotto ,  3th in the world .

Italy Major: a tense clash

During the' Italy Major , the pair  Lebron / Stupaczuk  was eliminated by  Galan / Chingotto  in three sets (4-6, 7-6, 6-2) in two hours of play.

What if this was a call for a return?

The statements of  Juan lebron  Could they be a call to play again with his former Argentinian partner and find the  world first place  ?

If that were the case, it would obviously be very surprising. Rather, this interview simply reflects the Andalusian player's desire to tell a different story than the one we know.

Passionate about soccer and tennis since I was a kid, I've been playing ping-pong for three years at a club in Nantes. More recently, I discovered padel! Basketball, rugby, golf, and motorsports: yet more new sports that I follow regularly. On the cultural side, since I love giving my opinion, I write film and video game reviews on my Instagram page, Silence ça Mix.
