Atletico Madrid will make a major change in sporting direction at the end of this season. Although the most logical thing is for Diego Pablo Simeone to continue leading the team for another year, everything indicates that Andrea Berta will stop his position as sporting director of Matalaser to start a new phase in Italian football. The Transalpine leader’s replacement could be Matteo Alemany, who ended his contractual relationship with Barcelona a few months ago
After Xavi Hernandez’s side effectively finished off La Liga with a win in a vital match against Osasuna at home, Barcelona surprisingly announced Matteo Alemany, one of Joan Laporta’s trusted men who played a key role in rebuilding the devastated squad. He will cease his position as Barcelona’s football director at the end of the next transfer market
A few weeks later it became known that the reason for this decision was Deco’s arrival in Barcelona’s sporting organizational chart. The club’s board of directors selected the former Portuguese footballer, giving him full powers, and Mateo ended up amicably severing ties with FC Barcelona. Now, it seems that the future of the Mallorca leader, after rejecting the offer from Aston Villa, is at Atletico Madrid, which needs several changes in its staff.
Ferran Torres in Atletico Madrid’s orbit
Faced with this scenario, a series of names that Matteo Alemany likes are already beginning to emerge and that, at the same time, could be a great solution for Atletico Madrid. The most notable is what was indicated by the digital portal Todoficajes, which indicates that Ferran Torres, the footballer that Mateo signed for Barcelona in the 2021 winter market for 55 million euros from Manchester City, could be one of the contracting parties. The company next summer
Although Ferran Torres will terminate his contract with Barcelona in 2027, the reality is that Joan Laporta would be willing to negotiate his transfer. It is true that the Valencia striker has repeated on many occasions that his desire is to succeed at Barcelona, but if he finishes the season as a substitute again, behind Joao Felix, Lamine Yamal and Rafinha, his view may change to a point of accepting his move to Atletico Madrid, which urgently needs a striker with his characteristics to accompany Griezmann and Morata.
