Atletico issue Resino backing

Atletico issue Resino backing

Atletico Madrid president Enrique Cerezo has given his backing to under-fire coach Abel Resino.

The Spanish side have won just one of their seven La Liga games so far this season, seeing them slump dangerously close to the foot of the table.

Their UEFA Champions League Group campaign has been equally unsuccessful, with a difficult trip to Chelsea on Wednesday offering no respite.

But Cerezo insist the club are not looking for a replacement for Resino despite Los Colchoneros' woeful start.

"At the moment we haven't thought about changing coaches," he said.

"It's difficult right now, but we'll find the solution as quick as possible."
