Former Argentina national team and PSG club player Javier Pastore shared his thoughts on modern football. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, young footballers are earning a lot of money. Earning 10 million euros annually at the age of 18, people are interested not only in football but also in investments and many other topics.
This situation reduces the passion for football. Pastore also gave his assessment of young players' training.
He sees that his son's coaches talk about 1 or 2 touches, but he emphasized that such an approach is not effective in 1v2 or 3v4 games. Footballers need to learn dribbling and have the right to make mistakes.
For example, Blanc or Ancelotti asked us to defend in a certain way but gave freedom to act in our own way. Nowadays, providing such freedom is very difficult.
Currently, Pastore is studying to become a sports director.
