Mark 'Rivo' Rivers & Richard Brant are back with Series 8 of the award-winning podcast and this week they are joined by Mariano Levisman.
On the pod this week, Mariano talks about his coaching journey which started attending Berks & Bucks FA Level 2 course in High Wycombe all the way to his role at the time of recording at Granada CF in La Liga.
Mariano talks about in depth about his rise from grassroots to the top including roles at
Club Atlético Talleres & Club Atlético Vélez Sarsfield in Argentina's Primera Division & Sport Club Internacional in Brazil's Serie A before moving onto Granada CF. Mariano shares the hard work he had put in including organising visits to clubs to observe coaching methods at Aston Villa & PSG to support his development.
Mariano also talks about his experiences growing up in Argentina and how his aspirations to become a professional player changed as a teenager and how he fell in love with coaching.
Mariano also provides us with how the opportunity came about at Granada CF with his first game being away at the Santiago Bernabeu against Real Madrid! Mariano talks about his role at the La Liga club and provides some fantastic insight into the game his Granada team played against Barcelona just 24 hours before!
