Carlos Corberán bolsters Valencia backroom staff for second pre-season | OneFootball

Carlos Corberán has strengthened his Valencia backroom staff as pre-season gets under way.

According to AS, Valencia began pre-season on Monday, and four signings De Haas, Guido Rodríguez, Sato and Dieng are already training under Corberán at the Ciudad Deportiva de Paterna.

Set-piece specialist Darío Navarro has joined in recent weeks. He has worked with Alessio Lisci at Levante, Mirandés and Osasuna, and with Juan Carlos Garrido at Ismaily.

Corberán has also added Pablo Álvarez as assistant coach, with Luis Sampedro focusing on opposition analysis in an external capacity. Álvarez, 31, most recently managed Alcorcón across the past two seasons.

Long-time coach Luis César Sampedro has previously led Nàstic de Tarragona, Valladolid, Tenerife, Albacete and Lugo, among others. He will not be involved day to day in Paterna, working as an off-site analyst.

The Cheste-born coach enters his second Valencia pre-season aiming to raise standards across his staff and daily work.
