Midfielder who snubbed Sporting put up for sale by Atl. Madrid, €25m | OneFootball

Atlético Madrid have set the asking price for Argentine attacking midfielder Thiago Almada at around €25 million, opening the door to a transfer in the upcoming summer window. The midfielder, who has already admitted to turning down a move to Sporting, continues to attract attention from other European clubs.

According to the Spanish press, teams such as Juventus and Galatasaray have been closely monitoring the player’s situation. The interest stems from the creative profile and international experience the Argentina international offers, qualities highly valued by top clubs in Europe.

The 24-year-old Argentine was signed by Atlético Madrid for around €21 million and is under contract until 2030, making him a valuable asset for the Spanish club should they decide to negotiate the player’s transfer in the next summer window.

It is worth remembering that Thiago Almada, while still a Vélez Sarsfield player in 2021, was repeatedly linked with Sporting. However, the club led by Frederico Varandas failed to reach an agreement with the South American side, who would eventually sell the Argentina international to Atlanta United for around €15 million.

So far this season, playing for Atlético Madrid, Thiago Almada - currently valued at €20 million - has featured in 30 matches: 20 in La Liga, five in the Champions League, four in the Copa del Rey and one in the Super Cup. In the 1,218 minutes he has been on the pitch, he has scored four goals and provided one assist.
