Combining a high-level professional career and elite education, we foresee this partnership opening up new opportunities for our players and giving them the necessary tools to excel in the next stage of their careers.”

Román Pascual, commercial director at Johan Cruyff Institute, comments for his part that “this alliance is a good opportunity to join forces with a sports agency with over 30 years of experience such as PROSPORT Management. This collaboration helps us to continue with our mission to professionalize the sports industry through education and shared knowledge.”
