Atletico Madrid President confirms power shift in transfer department

Atletico Madrid President Enrique Cerezo has confirmed reports that Sporting Director Andrea Berta will not be replaced. Cerezo also addressed rumours that they would be selling the club, and had started thinking about replacements for Diego Simeone.

Berta will leave the club next week after seven years at the club, and it seems Director of Football Carlos Bucero will be taking over his duties. Reports coming from the Spanish capital have spoken of a power shift within the club towards Bucero.

“In principle not [asked about whether they will sign], because Carlos Bucero is there. But I want to highlight the good work, the great work and the great technical work of Andrea Berta during all these years at Atletico.”
