Y a-t-il un souci entre Diego Simeone et Mateu Alemany ?

djayfoot

Lors du match entre l’Atlético de Madrid et le Real Betis, disputé au Metropolitano début février 2026, une image a rapidement attiré l’attention des téléspectateurs et des observateurs. Alors que l’Atlético est en difficulté dans la rencontre, Diego Simeone décide de remplacer Ademola Lookman par Obed Vargas, un changement qui surprend une partie du public.  Arrivé quelques jours plus tôt lors du mercato hivernal, Ademola Lookman avait pourtant connu une intégration rapide. Recruté pour environ 35 millions d’euros en provenance de l’Atalanta, il avait marqué pour ses débuts en Coupe du Roi à La Cartuja avant d’être titularisé en Liga. Son recrutement avait été personnellement piloté par Mateu Alemany, nouveau directeur du football professionnel masculin du club depuis octobre 2025.  Au moment de la substitution, les caméras de télévision captent Mateu Alemany en loge VIP, affichant une grimace de surprise ou de contrariété. Ce geste, diffusé en direct, devient rapidement viral et alimente de nombreuses interprétations en Espagne et sur les réseaux sociaux. Certains y voient un signe de désaccord avec Diego Simeone, dans un contexte déjà marqué par des tensions lors des derniers jours du mercato, lorsque l’entraîneur avait critiqué le manque de renforts.  D’autres observateurs appellent cependant à la prudence, estimant que l’image pourrait ne pas être directement liée à la sortie de Lookman mais à une autre phase du match ou au scénario global de la rencontre. Aucune déclaration officielle n’a été faite, ni par Mateu Alemany, pourtant élogieux sur Lookman avant le match, ni par Diego Simeone. L’épisode reste donc au stade de l’interprétation médiatique, mais il relance le débat sur l’équilibre entre direction sportive et staff technique à l’Atlético de Madrid.  #Alemany #MateuAlemany #Lookman #AdemolaLookman #Simeone #DiegoSimeone #Vargas #ObedVargas #Madrid #AtleticoMadrid #AtleticoDeMadrid #Atleti #Seville #RealBetis #Betis #Liga #LaLiga #CoupeDuRoi #Espagne #Nigeria #Atalanta #Metropolitano #LaCartuja  #Dailymotion #DailymotionShorts #DailymotionStudio

00:00That scene worries me; that scene happened when Diego Simeone made that choice this weekend in the league match against Betis Seville.

00:06to bring Ademoula Loukman out for Robert Bargas

00:08So, a small disclaimer: this sequence might not be worth watching; perhaps he wasn't necessarily reacting to Loukman's release.

00:15Maybe he was reacting more to the result, but we can't know what was going through his mind.

00:18Given that neither Diego Simeone nor Alemany have mentioned it, perhaps that's not the reason.

00:22But I still find it hard not to have a connection.

00:24Because it's true that 3 weeks after giving us the change of the century...

00:27By taking off Pablo Barrios con Bodo Glim, who was having a good game and was important in midfield for Romain Lenormand, even though we were losing at home

00:32Well, this change has a similar vibe, anyway.

00:35Why take Ademoula Loukman out of the picture and replace Robert Bargas, who is a much more defensive player than Ademoula Loukman?

00:40And what makes it even more incomprehensible is that Ademoula Loukman, in his first match against Betis Seville, precisely

00:44He had given a top performance

00:46So I am convinced that Alemany is like us, he saw the change and he said to himself, but why?

00:51I'm not going to lie to you, it worries me because I sincerely think there's a disagreement between Diego Simeone and Alemany.

00:55But we really felt that during the transfer window because almost every match throughout January

00:59Diego Simeone was there demanding players, explaining that they had taken 4 players from him but there were still no new signings, etc.

01:04Finally, Diego Simeone spent the entire month of January on the transfer market.

01:07While Alemany was explaining that yes, well, we're going to make targeted, precise investments, etc.

01:11Things will be carefully considered so that the club doesn't do anything rash or anything.

01:15Finally, for me there is clearly a disagreement between Alemany and Diego Simeone

01:18And you know as well as I do that when a coach and a sporting director don't get along at a club, things can't go well.

01:24Now I hope there's nothing to it, maybe there's not much to it, maybe in reality Alemany just nodded

01:29Well, sometimes we all nod our heads, it doesn't mean we think the worst of it or anything.

01:33Perhaps, of course, but still, there are several clues linking what happened in January and that

01:37Which tends to suggest that there is some disagreement between the two

01:40To be continued
