"After verifying the result, in which almost half of our social mass (61,021 members, which represents 44% of the 138,477 members of the club) have expressed their will for the club to consider the change, we will convene a board of directors as soon as possible in order to agree to launch a binding vote in which you can choose between keeping the current coat of arms or reintroducing the previous one," announced Club Atlético de Madrid (LaLiga Santander) on 25/06/2023.

I would like to highlight the fact that we have been able to carry out this consultation without incident and I would like to thank you all for your cooperation in making this possible," said Miguel Angel Gil, CEO of Club Atlético…
