🚨 Real bid for Alvarez: Atlético's scathing statement! | OneFootball

The clash is on! 

It’s the bombshell of the day in the football world: Real Madrid officially announced this Tuesday evening that it had made a €150 million offer to Atlético de Madrid in an attempt to secure the services of their Argentine striker, Julián Alvarez!

An offer... rejected by their rival.

Los Colchoneros then published a particularly scathing and surreal statement on X aimed at Real Madrid: 

"Official statement containing our clarifications regarding the official statement from our neighbors: 

1) They cut the part of the Pope’s video where he said that he too was an Atlético supporter.

2) You must have confused education with gratitude, but so that there is no doubt about it: we thank you for nothing.

3) We are neither considering nor evaluating any offer for Julián.

4) How could we not get along, when you make us laugh even more than FC Barcelona"

What an atmosphere...
