Mexican magnate Carlos Slim, the main shareholder of FCC, wants to appoint a senior manager from América Móvil as chief executive of the Spanish construction firm, Spanish daily Cinco Días said on Tuesday.
Slim wants to replace Chief Executive Juan Bejar with Carlos Jarque, 60, the head of international, corporate and governmental affairs at América Móvil, the newspaper reported, citing "reliable sources".
If appointed, Mexican Jarque, described by Cinco Días as "an expert in economics and statistics", would be the first foreigner to head up a large Spanish construction company.
Slim raised his stake in FCC to 25.6 percent stake via a rights issue last year. Bejar signaled afterwards that he would resign and is due to leave at the end of September. FCC said in July it had hired a head hunters to find a replacement.
The appointment could be made at an "imminent" FCC board meeting, said Cinco Días.
No one was immediately available at FCC to comment on the report.
