Less than eight hours remain until the transfer window closes, and Atlético de Madrid sees the possible signing of Marcos Leonardo slipping away. The Brazilian striker from Al-Hilal had everything agreed with the Madrid club, with a deal between the clubs already in place. According to various reports, everything pointed to the negotiation being settled, with a loan including a non-mandatory purchase option for less than 40 million. However, the deal has fallen through.
As reported by Matteo Moretto, Marcos Leonardo has not received the final green light from his club to sign for Atlético de Madrid. A series of circumstances that have occurred in the Saudi League, involving Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema, have caused a deal that was agreed in every detail to fall apart.
In these final hours of the transfer window, the deal has collapsed and Marcos Leonardo will not sign for Atlético de Madrid.
