Atlético de Madrid officially announced the appointment of Mateu Alemany as a new director of male professional football. After leaving FC Barcelona, the Spanish leader thus joined a position higher than that of the sports director Andrea Berta, with whom he will work in close collaboration. Close to the CEO Miguel Ángel Gil, who has long wanted to attract him, Alemany will now take advantage of his long experience in the Spanish transfer and football market for the benefit of the Colchoneros, just after a transfer window where the latter have greatly reshaped their aging workforce.
