LaLiga deadline day brings 25 signings as Julián Alvarez stays at Atlético | OneFootball

LaLiga’s deadline day delivered 25 arrivals from 29 targets, with the headline decision seeing Julián Alvarez stay at Atlético.

According to AS, most top flight clubs scrambled through Tuesday to fit late deals within tight salary limits, while all eyes remained on Alvarez. Atlético reiterated he was not for sale, especially not to Barcelona, despite the striker expressing a wish to leave.

Atlético still added Jonathan David to reinforce their attack. Barcelona strengthened too after missing out on the Argentine, confirming Gabriel Jesús on Tuesday morning. Valencia brought in Elliot, who arrived aiming to take the club into Europe.

Racing marked their return by recruiting Pablo García, Almeida, Belocian and Aaron Martín. Elche shored up at the back with Revivo and Rubén Sánchez and in midfield with Lemar, while Affengruber departed for Fulham.

Sevilla closed late with Stassin, Fofana and Correia. Betis did not announce the return of Ceballos, who can sign later as a free agent.

Elsewhere, Osasuna signed Del Castillo, Espanyol Gorosabel, Getafe Azón, Celta Cáceres, Levante Ratkov, Málaga Berrocal and Rayo Sadick.

Right at the buzzer, Deportivo secured Casadó from Barcelona and Giménez from Atlético, and Lomonaco joined Elche.
