Real Madrid has extended the contracts of two key members of its coaching staff: fitness coach Antonio Pintus and goalkeeper coach Luis Llopis. This development, originally reported by MARCA and later verified by club sources for Managing Madrid, demonstrates how important these two coaches have become to the team.
Both Pintus and Llopis were about to see their contracts expire. However, due to their major contributions, the club decided to keep them on board. Interestingly, neither coach was previously on Carlo Ancelotti’s team when he returned to the club in 2021. Instead, Real Madrid asked Ancelotti to keep them, which has paid handsomely over the last three seasons.
Ancelotti has developed a strong appreciation for their work. Pintus is noted for his rigorous fitness routines, which have kept the club in peak physical condition, while Llopis has been instrumental in developing the abilities of Madrid’s goalkeepers, including Keylor Navas and Thibaut Courtois.
This decision reflects Real Madrid’s approach of pursuing stability and consistency in their coaching ranks, with the goal of building on their success from the 2023-24 season.
