Proudly stated Sergio for his return to the Real Madrid In his first statements following the formalization of the team’s technical leadership.
“It is a moment of pride and honor to be a member of this great club again”the Italian initially said and continued:
“I can’t express my gratitude to the president. At the same time, I believe that expectations are high and this also implies a burden of responsibility to be able to pay back. For my part, I can only offer the best I have been able to do all these years, enhanced and enriched by the structure I have around me. I already have a good feeling of these first contacts I had and this can help me a lot in my work.
The challenges motivate you and the difficult challenges only require a higher level of performance than everyone. My job is not to shake a magic wand or to do anything on my own. Basketball is a team sport. And when I talk about a team, I not only mean players and coaches, but the whole section, even the whole club. After all, it is the result of the chemistry of our way of working, cohesion as a group »he stressed.
About how the game has evolved now …
“We need to be clear about the dominant trend in European basketball. At the moment, the athleticity and physical shape of external players, the playmakers, have increased dramatically. We have unique features in some players, who we like to see them and will be our job to make the most of them. But we must also be clear that we sometimes need to get out of our comfort zone. We need to try to set new challenges and learn new things.
What will not change is my excitement. I came at that time, a few years younger, but very enthusiastic. Now I came back, a few years older and with a little more experience, but the excitement and energy are there.
This incredible La Liga title we won in five games, the fifth in Palau, is a memory that I know is very intense in the minds of many Real Madrid fans. Of course, the differences are huge on a structural level and what has been built over the years, something that has raised the international prestige of the club »the Italian coach ended
