Alfredo Effron is experiencing a very particular moment in sports, as he maintains the hope of being able to place himself on the World Cup podium and it is a great challenge ahead of him. After his time in France, the Rioja native expressed “In the 2026 World Cup I am sure I will win a medal.”

The national judo has its own name and is called Alfredo Effron. After returning from a demanding competition at the World Cup in France, the athlete shared his feelings about what he described as a “very rewarding” experience.

Effron achieved a remarkable mark by finishing in 9th place in a highly competitive category that included 60 of the best exponents on the planet. Entering the world “Top 10” not only consolidates his technical level, but also positions him as a serious rival on the international circuit.

Focus on Bosnia

Far from settling for the diploma, the judoka has already begun his cycle of preparation for the next great challenge: the 2026 World Cup, which will be held in Bosnia. Athlete confidence is at an all-time high.

“What I experienced in France was very gratifying, but next year I’m going to win a medal. In the 2026 World Cup I’m sure I’m going to win a medal,” said Effron with the determination that characterizes him.

The road to Bosnia promises to be intense, but with the French precedent, Effron has shown that he has the talent and drive necessary to get on the podium and win the medal he so desires.
