Apparently signed Reyes and Forlan to Atletico. I'll take a couple of signings like that. I expect the manager piece to pick up pace now.

He's got an interesting Wiki page
I wonder if that's what's been holding up a managerial appointment?

I imagine the club would not want to a hire a manager without this appointment. Optically it needs to be his appointment.

Looking at his wiki I couldn’t see an English style manager working with him. Seems he likes a significant degree of autonomy in respect to transfers. Looks like we may be hiring a head coach rather than a belt and braces manager

If we are going to have signings dictated by a Director of football, then it would make sense to have a management team that is used to this. Dean Smith works under this system at Brentford, and is a good coach. Smith plus Terry might be where we are going and I would be happy with that.

So do we know specifically what he's here to do?  (And if anyone says 'Direct sport' I'll set fire to their hair.)

There's clearly been a lot going on behind the scenes then! Interesting to see that he was DOF at Valencia when a certain Rafael Benítez was manager (before the latter went to Liverpool).

Welcome to Villa Seńor Pitarch. May you be a huge success. :)
