The official radio program of Sevilla FC, Contigo Sevilla, featured David Sáez, CEO of Sport Data Campus, during its broadcast on Thursday, February 19, in an interview focused on the impact of data analysis in professional football.
During the conversation, Sáez highlighted the evolution of data usage within clubs over recent years, transitioning from a complementary tool to a structural element in sports decision-making processes. In this context, he emphasized the key role that analytics departments currently play in areas such as scouting, squad planning, and performance evaluation.
The discussion also addressed the growing need to incorporate specialized profiles capable of interpreting objective information within sports management teams, in a setting where talent identification increasingly relies on advanced analytical models.
