He Atlético de Madrid has not taken long to pronounce on the Offer from Real Madrid for Julián Álvarez. The red and white club has published a tweet with a laughing emoticon quoting the white club statement about this movement.
Atlético post in X.
Last week, Florentino announced that if he won the elections he would present a bid for “from one of the best players in the world”. Furthermore, he confirmed that it would be 150 million euroswhich would become the highest figure for a transfer to the white club.
The president ruled out the names of Olise, Haaland and Kane. However, today the club has revealed through a statement that the galactic offer was aimed at acquiring the services of Julian Alvarezalthough Atlético de Madrid has rejected it and has referred to its termination clause. First of all, the Argentine is linked to the rojiblanco club until 2030 and its clause amounts to 500 million euros.
The second tweet from Atlético.
Atlético continued boasting
Minutes later, Atlético went one step further and published a second tweet in a sarcastic tone, presented as a “official statement with our clarifications on the official statement from our neighbors”. In it, the red and white club responded point by point to Real Madrid’s writing, starting with a reference to the recent video of Pope Leo XIV’s visit to the Bernabéu: “The video of the Pope where he said he was also from Atleti was cut off”.
The third tweet from Atlético.
“You make us laugh even more than Barcelona”
The text continued with two more clarifications along the same lines: “You may have confused education with gratitude, but so that there is no doubt: we do not thank you for anything” and “We neither study nor evaluate any offer for Julián”. The finishing touch came in the fourth and final point, with a dart included to a third protagonist: “How can we not get along, if you make us laugh even more than Barcelona”.
The sequence did not end there. Immediately afterwards, the Metropolitan club finished off the task with a postscript full of intention: “PS Taking advantage of the good relationship with your new president, let’s see if you stop ‘stealing’ players from our Academy. Thank you very much, @realmadrid!”. One last joke that alludes to the signings of red-and-white youth players by the white club in recent years and that puts the finishing touch to an afternoon of exchanges of communications between the two clubs in the capital.
