This promotion comes at a challenging time for Barca Atletic, as they are currently playing in the RFEF Segunda Division after being relegated. Belletti replaces Sergi Mila in the position.
Belletti has a strong connection to Barcelona, having played for the first team as a fullback and winning the Champions League and two LaLiga titles. In the 2023/24 season, he initially returned to the club as an assistant coach to Rafa Marquez before being promoted to coach the U19s.
