On a mild, spring-like afternoon in Milan, the Allianz Cloud welcomed the visit of Premier Padel chairman Nasser Al-Khelaifi, together with International Padel Federation president Luigi Carraro. They were greeted in the temple of Milanese padel by NSA Group CEO Marco Gamberale, organizer of the Oysho Milano Premier Padel P1, and Premier Padel general director David Serrahima. The group, later joined by Premier Padel CEO David Sugden, then headed to “Casa Padel,” the tournament’s hospitality and players’ lounge area, where the first to meet and greet Premier Padel chairman Al-Khelaifi and FIP president Carraro was Juan Lebrón.
Hugs, smiles, and a friendly chat about their shared passion for padel—plus the promise to meet again on court. Then came Ale Galán and Franco Stupaczuk, soon joined by a relaxed Federico Chingotto, who had just been playing a casual game of pool. The atmosphere remained light and cheerful, with laughs and conversations shared among the players and stars of the world’s top padel circuit.
A little later, Nasser Al-Khelaifi and Carraro stopped to talk with Aranzazu Osoro and Victoria Iglesias, and then with Gemma Triay and Delfi Brea, who had just come off the court victorious after their match against Velasco and Eugenio. Finally, together with Carraro, the Premier Padel chairman took his seat in the VIP tribune to watch some of the match between Edu Alonso and Juan Tello against Ale Galán and Fede Chingotto.
