Nickname and nickname of Diego Alonso: why do they call the new coach of Sevilla FC ‘El Tornado’?

Sevilla announced on Tuesday that Diego Alonso is the owner of Nervión’s bank, after the Uruguayan became José’s replacement Luis Mendilibar.

Alonso replaces Mendilibar on the Seville bench, as already announced on the official website. At the age of 48, he has just qualified his country’s team for the Qatar World Cup and after that tournament, in which he did not pass the group stage, his relationship with the Uruguayan team ended. He hasn’t taken a bank since. He also directed the Miami Interand in Mexican football.

In that sense it is not metaphorical to say so A tornado has reached Nervión. And that is exactly the nickname of the new coach of the Seville team. In that sense, it’s worth asking why Alonso It has to do with that giant air funnelwhich blows upward in a cyclonic spiral and spins around like a whirlwind.

Julio Ribasone of Alonso’s coaches, noted in an interview years ago that he was the one who gave him the nickname ‘Tornado’ and explained the reason for that nickname:

“In between those conversations I always asked for things, I used nicknames, none of those nicknames hurt the player, their purpose was to explain what to do on the field. In the case of the Tornado because I didn’t explainyou must be a tornadoYou have to be an outburst, you have to do what hurts the defenders the most, and that is not scoring goals, but scoring goals. You have to run them, crush them and stuff only a tornado can do that.” And I asked him: Are you convinced you can be a tornado?’. And we laughed. That’s how it came about, because people mimic the things you tell them; if you continue with it, you will believe what is not written.”
