Álvaro Justo, Atlético Madrileño's first signing for 2026-2027 | OneFootball

Atlético de Madrid have reached an agreement with Álvaro Justo for him to become a new player for Atlético Madrileño. He joins the reserve side as a free agent after not renewing his contract with Granada CF.

A 19-year-old attacking midfielder born in Seville, he can play in several positions both in midfield and in the final third. He developed at various clubs in the province of Seville until Real Betis brought him into their youth setup, where he became one of the standout players of his generation. In tournaments such as the MIC and LaLigaPromises, his name stood out above the rest, even scoring a brace against Real Madrid. 

In the 2023–2024 season, he swapped Betis green-and-white for Granada red-and-white, where he began playing for the Juvenil A side and was then brought into the Recreativo Granada setup thanks to his strong performances, making 9 appearances in the Segunda Federación. This past year, he played 31 matches — 27 as a starter — scoring 7 goals in the Tercera Federación.

Now, Álvaro joins the Atlético setup to replace Jano Monserrate. The Zaragoza-born player is already a new Ajax Amsterdam player thanks to an agreement for his transfer worth “several hundred thousand euros,” according to reports from the Dutch capital. He has signed a four-year contract and will initially play for Jong Ajax, the club’s reserve team.
