Despite the end of the 2024 competitions and the holiday period for the first team players, the month of December has been one of intense training at CT Evaristo de Macedo. The under-20 team players are in pre-season with an eye on the Bahia Championship games.
Due to the short time between returning from vacation and the pre-season they will hold in Girona, Spain, Bahia decided that they will use the under-20s in Baianão’s first three games. The kids’ debut will be on January 12th, against Jacuipense, at Joia da Princesa, in Feira de Santana.
This Monday morning (23), the athletes from the under-20 team played a friendly against the under-17, who are preparing for the São Paulo Junior Football Cup, in January.
The activity was carried out without press access and Bahia did not disclose the score. The team preparing for the state championship is led by Leonardo Galbes, the coach who replaced Rogério Ferreira.
Before arriving at Bahia, Leonardo Galbes was in the main team of Louletano, from Portugal. He has worked as an assistant coach for teams such as Bolívar-BOL, Coritiba, Red Bull Bragantino and the Bolivian national team.
