Pogba’s back, could Vini Jr leave Real Madrid? And Noni Madueke’s one-to-one coach
Paul Pogba’s return to competitive football, the tense relationship between Vinícius Júnior and Xabi Alonso at Real Madrid were discussed in the latest Tifo Football podcast…
We also had a special guest! Individual skills coach Saul Isaksson-Hurst has worked with the likes of Arsenal’s Noni Madueke, Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo & Monaco’s Folarin Balogun to help develop specific parts of their game outside of the club environment.
We hear what a one to one coach is, how Saul became one, what they work on and how they navigate training with individual players who are also training regularly with their clubs.
This episode of the Tifo football podcast is hosted by Joe Devine, features Jon Mackenzie & Saul Isaksson-Hurst and is produced by Steve Hankey.
