Atlético accuse Barça: 'They think they can belittle us, we're mugs' | OneFootball

Gil Marín, in statements to Agencia EFE, has announced that he is going to report Barcelona for negotiating with Julián Alvarez. A complaint from Atlético against Barcelona for negotiating with a player “under contract during the protected period.” Gil Marín has stepped in to defend the interests of the Metropolitano side.

The Atlético executive, in relation to the complaint against Barcelona, added: “Our responsibility is to defend Atlético de Madrid’s interests and that is why we are going to file a complaint with FIFA against Barcelona for negotiating with a player who is under contract during the protected period.”

Gil Marín strongly criticized the Blaugrana side: “Barcelona disrespects us; they think they can look down on us, that we are weak or stupid. But what they are really showing the world is a way of acting that defines them. They lie to us, to the player, to the media, and they also lie to their own fans. They are trying to make everyone believe they can take on a deal that in reality they are not capable of carrying out. It is not the first time Barcelona has acted like this, and the football world is fully aware of it. Last year they did something very similar with Nico Williams and Athletic Club“.
