Atletico Madrid B axe coach Nacho Fernández; Antonio Rivas promoted

Atletico Madrid are shaking up their B team coaching staff.

After defeat to Socuéllamos last week, Atletico B coach Nacho Fernández has left his role today.

AS says Antonio Rivas will now take charge as he's promoted from the Juvenil A team and will remain until the end of the season.

Atletico B are fighting against relegation from the Segunda Division.

Nacho Fernandez was known for bringing through young players, with Mario Soriano, Giuliano Simeone and Javi Serrano all featuring, but results haven't gone as expected this season.
