🚨🔵🔴 BREAKING: Barcelona send first official proposal to Atlético Madrid for Julián Álvarez worth €100m.
No add-ons, no players involved.
Atlético, not happy about the situation over last 24h — but Julián has already asked to leave.
🗣️PEP GUARDIOLA: "The difference between Messi and this generation? I’ll be honest, if Messi were still in Europe, half of these stars… you wouldn’t hear much about their names.”
“Today’s forwards score 20 goals a season and are considered legends. Messi would score 20 goals in two months or half a month and still complain he wasn’t at his best.”
“Today Mbappé runs, Haaland scores, and De Bruyne passes, but no one, no one, can make us say, ‘Oh my God, how did he do that?’Some players create stats. Messi created pure wonder."
🚨💣🗣️| Lamine Yamal: “Ronaldo saying I should shut up? He wasn't referring to me. He did not achieve what I have achieved at my age so, he wasn't referring to me!” 💥
‼️ 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: The VAR room said "thank goodness" when they saw that Fermin made a handball before his goal.
It was perfectly audible in the published audios.
