🚨⚠️ BREAKING: Atlético Madrid new statement on €150m for Julián Álvarez from Real Madrid.
“Taking advantage of the good relationship with your new president, let's see if you stop ‘stealing’ players from our Academy. Thanks a lot, Real Madrid!”.
🚨 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.”
🚨 Barça and Real Madrid both watched Hafiz Gariba closely before his move to La Masia.
The club value his speed, strength, size, duel power and ability to play out from the back.
He still needs to improve concentration and consistency, but Barça believe he has major room to grow.
He's expected to be important for Barça Atlètic next season.
A first-team pre-season call is not ruled out, but for now he is expected under Belletti from July 20.
