“"I know that the Deputy Mayor, Inma Sanz, is preparing a deployment. I know that we are used to managing this type of celebration in the city of Madrid and, therefore, there will be a Municipal Police and Samur deployment, both on Saturday at the Metropolitano and at the Fuente de Neptuno, while at the Metropolitano it will be possible to watch on screens in the stadium in the eventual case that the Copa del Rey is won, as well as the next day throughout the route that Atlético de Madrid will take."

The Madrid City Council has announced the preparation of a security operation that will include between 150 and 200 Municipal Police officers and Samur units, in anticipation of a possible Atlético de Madrid victory in the Copa del Rey this Saturday.
The mayor of Madrid, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, confirmed that, although he prefers not to go into detail due to personal superstition as a team supporter, preparations are underway. Deputy Mayor Inma Sanz is leading the coordination of this special plan.
The security operation includes the presence of 150 to 200 Municipal Police officers. In addition, three Samur units will be deployed on Saturday and seven on Sunday, should the celebration occur. These measures aim to guarantee order and safety both at the Metropolitano Stadium and at the Fuente de Neptuno, key meeting points for fans.
The mayor expressed confidence in the city's ability to manage such events, highlighting previous experience in sports celebrations. The press conference where these details were provided took place in Carabanchel.
