La carrera de Des McAleenan como preparador técnico de porteros de fútbol lo ha llevado por todo el mundo en donde ha trabajado con algunas de las personas más destacadas en el deporte.
Su rol actual con la selección Colombia dirigida por Carlos Queiroz, es tal vez, su carga más glamorosa hasta la fecha, donde "cada día es emocionante y estimulante" pero ha tenido un recorrido muy interesante para llegar hasta este punto.
En este episodio Des nos dice que el regreso a los asuntos más sencillos del fútbol le ayudó a superar la depresión severa que sufrió.
Hablando de los retos con la selección, nos informa que mientras la Copa América de este año es importante, considerando que Colombia es uno de los anfitriones, la prioridad es la clasificación al Mundial 2022

Des McAleenan's career as a football goalkeeping coach has taken him all over the world, working with some of the most respected names in the game.
His current role with the Colombian men's team under Carlos Queiroz is perhaps his most glamorous to date — "every day is exciting and stimulating" he says — yet he's had quite the journey getting there.
Here he tells us how it was returning to the game's simpler pleasures that helped him overcome what he describes as a "horrific bout of depression".
As for the year ahead, while Colombia's co-hosting of this year's Copa America means the team will be looking to win it, Des tells us the priority is World Cup qualification
