Manolo Cadenas trains young cancer survivor

Veteran handball coach Manolo Cadenas is providing private training to 16-year-old Manu, who overcame a serious cancer diagnosis that left him hospitalized for eight months.

Manolo Cadenas, the veteran handball coach, has been giving private lessons to Manu, a 16-year-old from León who was diagnosed with sarcoma myeloid in 2024. The young athlete spent eight months hospitalized in isolation, losing significant weight during his treatment.

After Manu's recovery, Cadenas approached his father and offered to help, saying "Dejádmelo a mí" (Let me handle him). Despite trying to downplay the gesture, the coach began individual training sessions with Manu, who had previously been called up to the youth teams of Castilla and León before his illness. iwanktv.club
