Antonio Cord has not conversed with the FC Barcelona to replace to Mateu Alemany in the sportive direction culé. In an interview for the agency 'EFE', the executive extremeño denied any contact with the Barça and encouraged to recommend to the one who considers would be the ideal replacement for Alemany. In accordance with the ex sportive director of the Real Betis, Jordi Cruyff is the indicated to assume this charge in the Barcelona directive.

Cord and Cruyff worked together in Ecuador and China, by which knows him well. In fact, his relation with the today director of football of the Barça positioned him like a logical substitute for Mateu Alemany, since his course to the Aston Villa, even, has put in entredicho the continuity of the same Jordi.

Besides, has a lot of experience and comes of a family that has been all in Barcelona. I am not the one who, but no would think it to me" said Cord.

In this sense, left clear that, for the moment, has not spoken with Joan Laporta. "With the Barcelona there has been quite a lot of repercussion, but the only that joins me to the Barça is a professional relation very cordial with Jordi Cruyff because we have worked together and coincide a lot in all the futbolístico. From here, it has not called me anybody", explained the ex director of the Betis.

Laporta No descarta to Deco for the place

Conscious of the importance to bet by somebody of the house to commission of the sportive direction, Joan Laporta expects to keep to Jordi Cuyff in the directive and add to Deco for the next season.
