Alejandra Salazar and Aranzazu Osoro are expected to form a new pair on the Premier Padel circuit. Their partnership is due to begin at the Malaga Premier Padel P1, scheduled from 13 to 19 July 2026, after the Bordeaux event.
For those following the women’s market, the answer is clear: Salazar is set to play with Osoro in Malaga, pending the tournament’s final confirmations. The information, spotted in the entry lists and reported by several Spanish and French outlets, fits into a wider wave of partner changes midway through the season.
An experienced pair looking for fresh momentum
This new partnership comes at a pivotal moment. The first Malaga entry lists revealed several adjustments in the upper and middle sections of the women’s draw. For Salazar, who is playing her final professional season, the goal is clear: to stabilise a project capable of challenging the best, while keeping the qualities that have defined her for more than a decade at the top level.
Osoro brings a different profile. The Argentine likes to set a high tempo, cover plenty of court and extend rallies. Alongside Salazar, she could give the pair a more combative identity, with an intriguing balance between reading the game, experience and physical energy.
Malaga as the first test
The Malaga P1 should be the starting point for this new chapter. On paper, the partnership is attractive, but it will need to build references quickly: court zones, Osoro’s role on the left side, and the balance between taking initiative and staying patient in rallies.
In a dense women’s circuit, where the leading pairs impose an immediate standard, a new team is not judged only by its names. It is measured by how fast it creates habits and how well it holds up in tight moments. That is exactly what Salazar and Osoro will have to show in Andalusia.
Another sign of a restless women’s market
The move also confirms a wider trend: partner changes remain one of the main storylines in Premier Padel. As summer approaches, players are looking for solutions before the next phase of the season, even if it means adjusting recent projects.
For Salazar, this partnership may offer one last competitive window in a season that is inevitably special. For Osoro, it is a chance to join a high-profile team with a player who knows the pressure of major draws better than almost anyone.
