"I am working on my coaching, and am passionate about understanding and learning from other areas relating to performance. For example, talking with physiotherapists or fitness trainers about what they do,"
"If I progress as a coach, it is because my talent perhaps wasn't meant only to be a football player, but also to help others. I am very didactic; I want to help a lot, and can direct my talent towards making a real difference in the lives of other athletes."
Thiago Alcantara was approached by Levante to become their manager but turned down the offer. Levante sacked Julián Calero earlier in the month after poor results and also approached Raúl González, who declined. Thiago returned to Barcelona in September to rejoin Hansi Flick's staff, working on tactics, preparing training sessions and helping younger players. Thiago is actively developing his coaching by engaging with physiotherapists and fitness trainers to broaden his performance knowledge. He views coaching as an extension of his talent and aims to help athletes and make a meaningful impact on their careers.
