We have a head of recruitment. Wasn’t the story thst we would simply enlarge his role/title?It was reported that we were not for a DoF or Technical Director, rather for a Head of Recruitment. Don't think anyone half-decent is interested.

That was a guess, but because the club hasn't released any information that's all it was.We have a head of recruitment. Wasn’t the story thst we would simply enlarge his role/title?
spursy that LOLFrom the very small sample I’ve seen online he seems pretty well respected at Barca by their fans, although one comment did say he was bad at selling players.
He can't grow a good beard, I'm out
Apparently he made one visit to Birmingham and hated it so much he turned down the jobhow come he didnt go to villa in the end?
We don't have one. It seems, that our Chief scout is in charge for that role now. Hercules mentioned that he really pulled trees.We have a head of recruitment. Wasn’t the story thst we would simply enlarge his role/title?
He’s going to fit in well thenFrom the very small sample I’ve seen online he seems pretty well respected at Barca by their fans, although one comment did say he was bad at selling players.
Meh. I don’t know, he strikes me as an old guard type, and maybe not one that would embrace data and analytics like we had heard we were pivoting to. His eye for talent seems limited to more well-known players and/or ones in the twilight of their careers. So yeah, this is probably happening!
These sources say Alemany’s vision for the club has on occasion been marginalised in favour of shorter-term gain, which contrasted with the expectations he had for the role. Some of the squad additions made were seen as patches for the first team rather than decisions that would help build for a better future.
Barca’s financial situation has not helped either, although sources point out this is something Alemany was already aware of when he accepted the position.
There was also frustration on Alemany’s side for not being provided with the resources he believed necessary to build a solid recruitment department behind him, as well as a feeling that his work was often heavily focused on dealing with La Liga and the club’s inability to bring itself in line with the league’s salary-cap rules.
At Barca, he has felt, according to one source, that he’s been “managing misery at the club”.
I'm not sure that we will, I think we're waiting on Paratici. This feels like 1+1=3 because outwardly we don't have one and he's becoming available.Thank fuck. I was showered with negative ratings for daring to suggest that our director of football being literally banned from the sport was perhaps suboptimal. I was terrified we wouldn’t appoint a new one.
Who knows. We'll find out very quickly I guess. Does Paratici work well within the new 'data driven' system?I'm not sure that we will, I think we're waiting on Paratici. This feels like 1+1=3 because outwardly we don't have one and he's becoming available.
Reality is I think we have our structure in place but can't be public because of bans being served.
