"Vicente Rifaterra is not just an exceptional coach; his true strength lies in the personal connection he creates with you as a player. His passion towards the sport and determination for others to succeed is what sets him apart. I’ve been working with Vicente for over a year and he has taken my game to a whole new level. Mentality has been the number one difference maker. His knowledge of the game is second to none and has taught me so much. Every training session is more intense than the last, making match day feel easy. Tactically and technically he pays so much attention to detail and constantly helps to improve your weaknesses and strengths. The biggest lesson I’ve learned from Vicente is to be a good player every detail counts and to always have respect for the game. He’s a brilliant coach but an even better person and it’s been a pleasure to work with him."

Vicente’s well-connected network in the professional soccer world has undoubtedly opened doors to incredible opportunities for me.
On a personal level, Vicente is kind, patient, fun, and above all passionate about what he does.  He helps me stay focused and grow as a soccer player.  His advice and insights have been instrumental in my development and I value his guidance in making the best decisions for my future.
I wholeheartedly recommend Vicente to any player looking for a coach and agent who truly cares about their players and their successes."

His deep knowledge of the game, combined with his passion for coaching, has helped take my game to the next level. He doesn’t just focus on technical skills, but also on the physical and tactical aspects that really set players apart. Beyond just improving my game, he’s also provided invaluable support in connecting me to new opportunities. Thanks to him, I am able to experience an incredible opportunity in Spain, which is an exciting step forward in my soccer journey.
What truly stands out about Vicente is his dedication to his players. He genuinely cares about your growth, not only as a soccer player but as a person. If you’re looking for a coach who is knowledgeable, motivating, and truly invested in helping you reach your goals, I can’t recommend Vicente enough. He has been a game-changer for me, and I’m incredibly grateful for everything he’s done to help me grow as a player."
