Training Center
After almost 85 years in existence, RCD Mallorca finally had its own training ground: the Ciudad Deportiva Antonio Asensio in 1998.
This complex, located on the grounds of Son Bibiloni – an estate in the municipality of Palma, at kilometre eight of the road leading to Sóller – has become the place to train for senior and academy players alike.
The sports complex has only grown since its inauguration and also the home for our academy sides’ fixtures.
In the summer of 2006, a grandstand was built with a capacity for 1,200 people to be able to watch the matches played, and progressively new pitches with different types of grass have been added.
As one of the leading football facilities in Europe, the training ground has four natural grass pitches and one artificial pitch.
The facilities are complemented by ten spacious and modern changing rooms, four of which are located under the stands.
There is also a fully-functioning gymnasium used by the first team and the reserve team, a heated therapeutic pool, hydromassage and sauna.
For the remaining youth teams, Son Bibiloni offers another gymnasium and a treatment room.
Along with the offices and the main changing rooms there is also a press room, a place frequented by the footballers themselves when they are doing video sessions and by media professionals.
The press room can host more than fifty journalists to work in total comfort with available audio connections for radio and television.
In 2016, the ownership of RCD Mallorca set up the Players Lounge, an area for players to rest, have fun and eat.
The building has its own kitchen where the daily menus are prepared organised by a nutritionist, in addition to a meeting room that can be used by managers, coaches or players.
The Ciudad Deportiva Antonio Asensio is also a perfect facility for hosting teams and national teams from other parts of the world to train on its pitches.
Inter Milan, Chelsea, Sevilla FC, Hamburg, Helsingborgs IF as well as national teams such as Germany, Argentina and Northern Ireland have used our facilities to train on.
Individuals have used our home as a base for injury recovery and pre-season training with the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mané, Marco Asensio and Kang-In Lee to have also trained individually here.
As if that weren't enough, our training ground has been the chosen venue for major grassroots football tournaments.
The Ciudad Deportiva Antonio Asensio is one of the continent’s leading training complexes and provides a best-in-class environment for players, coaches and staff.
