Joan Laporta turns a deaf ear to the words of Gil Marin and continues in his thirteenth attempt to sign Julian Alvarez for the next season. The CEO of Atlético was blunt: “Our response is infinite, we do not accept an offer of 100 million for Julián or 200.” But Laporta will not give up and has already responded.
“We are there with an offer. He is a player that our coach wants and that is why we made the offer to Atlético de Madrid. “It is a very important and very, very good offer for us,” he commented. Laporta from New York, where he has traveled to see the World Cup final between Spain and Argentina.
The president of Barça did not hesitate to value the words of Gil Marin: “I respect everyone’s opinion. I respect the opinion of Michelangelo and everyone.” But he remains convinced that the signing can be done: “There are so many cases in which it has been said that a player would never go to Barça and he has ended up coming…”.
When a player wants to leave, the attitude of Barça as a club is that, if a player wants to leave Barça, a silver bridge
In his opinion, the desire of the player, who has already expressed his desire to leave the Athleticmust prevail above all: “When a player wants to leave, the attitude of Barça as a club is that, if a player wants to leave Barça, a silver bridge. A big club cannot afford to have players who are unhappy.”
And he concluded by remembering that the offer “it is not unlimited” in time and that Atlético should take advantage of such an important offer: “It is no longer just a question of the offer that is made, but also, if there is also a good offer, you have to take advantage of it”.
