Berta: Colchonero Goodbye, Arsenal Hello?
Andrea Berta, a key figure in the sports management of Atlético de Madrid for more than a decade, ended his time at the club on December 31st. His work, highly appreciated by the Rojiblanca board, was slightly overshadowed after the incorporation of Carlos Bucero as football director, prompting the Italian to explore new professional horizons.
Now, a juicy offer from Arsenal could materialize his next challenge. After a brief interest from PSG, the London club has shown a strong interest in his services. The proposal seduces Berta, 53, who sees a great opportunity in Arsenal, following Edu Gaspar’s departure to Nottingham Forest.
In England, his arrival is considered imminent, and there is even talk of an official announcement in the coming days. Mikel Arteta, Arsenal’s coach, is enthusiastic about the prospect of collaborating with Berta, from whom he has received excellent references.
Together, they will focus on planning the 25/26 season, in which Arsenal will seek to strengthen their squad. Berta’s departure marks the end of a successful cycle at the Metropolitano, but opens a new stage full of promises in the Premier League.
