Atlético Madrid, Julián Álvarez
Atlético Madrid have ruled out the possibility of Julián Álvarez joining Barcelona, insisting that the club will not negotiate the Argentine forward’s transfer to the Catalan giants.
The decision was unanimously backed by Atlético’s Board of Directors, who expressed their full support for the club’s stance on Barcelona’s interest in the player.
In an official statement on Thursday, Atlético said they remain open to transfer negotiations but stressed that such discussions must be conducted in an ethical and professional manner, with respect between clubs.
The Madrid club, however, claimed that Barcelona had failed to meet those requirements.
