“There was a time we had 90 million turnover and we had to pay back 22 million per year for the stadium, I couldn’t sleep because we had to qualify for the champions league to pay back the money. We had to sell our best players. Other clubs came in with lots of money but we were on the same level from 2007 to 2016”

🚨 Atlético Madrid statement following €150m bid from Real Madrid for Julián Álvarez.
“1. You cut the video of the Pope where he said he was also an Atleti fan.
2. You must have confused ethics with gratitude, but to leave no doubts: we don't thank you for anything.
3. We are not studying nor considering any offer for Julián.
4. How could we [Madrid] not get along, when you make us laugh even more than Barcelona.”
