Sánchez Aide Ana Manzano Named PSOE Communications Director, Replacing Ion Antolín

The move seeks tighter coordination linking Moncloa to Ferraz before the next electoral push.

Overview

  • Manzano, a trusted adviser in the prime minister’s office since 2018, will shift to the party’s communications helm at Ferraz.
  • ABC reports she is expected to assume the role next week, following confirmation of the change by multiple outlets.
  • Party sources present the handover as a step to rebuild information flow between the government and the PSOE apparatus.
  • Ion Antolín exits at his request, with health issues cited, after previously being named Secretary of State for Communication without taking office.
  • The adjustment comes less than four months after a broader executive reshuffle prompted by Santos Cerdán’s forced resignation and subsequent imprisonment.
