Without exceptions
There will be no exceptions or special cases. The footballer who does not offer his best version will not get the high competitiveregardless of your name, reputation or status. And that version will be much more demanding than in previous courses. All players must be aware from the beginning of this increase in their obligations.
Daily checks
Each player will be subjected on a daily basis to the most strict controls of various basic metrics, such as strength, speed, endurance, elasticity… Follow-up to the millimeter is considered one of the keys for the global plan to lead to final success.

The 59 injuries suffered by the white players in 20-21 conditioned the performance of the team and were one of the main causes, if not the main one, that the season ended without titles.
In this sense, the arrival of Pintus It is considered by the club as one of the keys to next season. It must be remembered that the Italian will not only be in charge of the physical preparation of the first team, but also of designing the general plan for all teams in the lower categories of the entity.
