Gil Marín hits out at Barça: «Lies, no ethics, no professionalism» | OneFootball

Gil Marín, from Monaco, asked to speak about the situation of Julián Alvarez and to lash out at the attitude of FC Barcelona. A forceful statement from the man ultimately in charge of the management of Atlético de Madrid, who usually speaks very little, but now Gil Marín has exploded against Barcelona.

OUTRAGE AT BARCELONA

“We are even more outraged because they disgust us. We are disgusted by falsehood, the lack of ethics, the lack of transparency, of professionalism… and we can only keep insisting. We are not going to negotiate with FC Barcelona under any circumstances. I have the support of everyone working with me, the shareholders, and as the man ultimately responsible for the club’s management, the only sure and firm decision is that we are not going to negotiate with Barcelona under any circumstances. I’ve been in football for more than thirty years, and my word, which is one of the few things I have—while I’m here, Julián will not be transferred to Barcelona, absolutely for certain.”

OTHER NEGOTIATION OPTIONS

“Our intention, and my personal dream, is for him to stay with us, continuing to serve Atlético de Madrid. To compete among the elite, you need elite players, and Julián is one. If he comes to the conclusion that being in Madrid and at Atlético is incompatible, we will look for an alternative. But never, never, will it be FC Barcelona.”
