Top Real Madrid coaches due for series of football clinics

REAL Madrid, one of the world’s biggest and strongest football clubs, is bringing topnotch coaches to the Philippines as part of a project spearheaded by Alliance Global Group and PinoySports Foundation.

The club, through the Real Madrid Foundation, signed an agreement with businessman Andrew Tan’s conglomerate, Alliance Global Group to hold a series of football clinics at McKinley Hill Stadium late this year.

“We are very confident that with the training and guidance of Real Madrid’s coaches, more young Filipino players will be able to achieve their football aspirations,” said AGI director Kevin Tan.

The partnership, signed last week in Madrid, will see the club send its coaches to stage clinics from Oct. 5 to 9 and Oct. 12 to 16.

The RMF will also hold clinics in Baler, Aurora, on Oct. 19 to 23 and Oct. 26 to 30.

Also signing the agreement were Real Madrid Foundation EVP Enrique Sanchez, Real Madrid director for institutional relations Emilio Butragueño and former Sen. Edgardo Angara, who also chairs the PinoySports Foundation.  Cedelf P. Tupas
