Paquito Navarro, who had advanced to the Santiago Premier Padel P1 quarterfinals, talked to Veinte Diezin in an interview where he discussed his friendship with Juan Lebron among other things.
Paquito Navarro and Juan Lebron’s conversation went viral during one of their bench passes during their round of 16 encounter and their post-match reconciliation. Paquito played down the incident on social media, saying things like, “Now you’re surprised, but if they had bugged us in 2019, you’d be amazed.”
Paquito stated the following regarding that conversation: “We have the confidence to inform each other and then try shock therapy, or redirect the couple. For better or worse, I play with a man in whom I have complete trust and feel free to confide in him about everything. However, when the time comes, we are there or it even relieves some of the burden on us to keep playing.
In fact, following the words they had at the conclusion of the game, some were discussing apossible breakup. Paquito Navarro has the following to say about it: “I have already stated that Juanito is the best option for me, and I also think the couple is real. I will play with Juanito until he wants, I say outright. If he thinks he can do better with a different player, I will tell him how much I appreciate that you gave me the chance and that you thought of me while you were at the top of your game. I’ll hug him and send my best wishes his way. But for now, all I can think about is this competition in Rome, to which we have also committed, and our best efforts to persuade him that this couple will make a good match.”
