Gerónimo Spina and staying put on the final day of the transfer window | OneFootball

The winter market of 2026 has already made history, with up to 5 key moves for Atlético Madrileño. Marko Perovic arrived (on loan from Almería), Marcos Parriego (free agent after terminating his contract with FC Barcelona's reserve team), and Rafa Llorente (transferred from AD Alcorcón, fee to be disclosed); meanwhile, Omar Janneh headed to Lausanne Sport for 2 million and future options, and Carlos Giménez went on loan with a purchase option to the reserve team of PAOK of Thessaloniki.

And there could have been more. Especially one name that was strongly rumored in the summer due to his situation, having gone from starter to ostracism last season and with a giant of Spanish football after him: Gerónimo Spina and Barcelona. According to this source, on the last day of the market, Atlético de Madrid received formal offers from the Blaugranas and Betis, another club interested in signing the Argentine for their reserve team, but with a projection for the first team.

However, due to negotiation issues, none of the clubs managed to reach an agreement with the Rojiblancos, and finally, Gero Spina did not leave Atlético de Madrid. It is clear that he is a player sought after by several clubs, and we won't need to highlight the talent of the Argentine defender, but his situation suggests that we will mention him again in the summer… and we will see if the saga continues or ends, regardless of whether he stays or heads to a new team.
