Atlético de Madrid has made some surprising moves during the summer transfer market, revolutionising their squad and surprising both their fans and their rivals. In an attempt to return to competing at the highest level, the club have made a series of signings that seek to strengthen all the lines of the red-and-white team. The arrivals of players such as a great defender and a renowned striker have generated great expectations for next season.
Red and white revolution in the transfer market
The club's sporting director, along with coach Diego Pablo Simeone , have worked tirelessly to balance the squad, maintaining the team's competitive DNA while introducing quality into the team. Notable names include Julián Álvarez and Conor Gallagher , as well as experienced players who will bring quality and leadership. This balance between youth and experience is key to the new version we can see in the team.
In addition to the signings, Atlético de Madrid has intelligently managed the departures, freeing up a large wage bill. The team has made significant profits from the sale of some of its less used players, thus allowing for greater room for manoeuvre in the club's signings. Everything points to this summer being a turning point in the club's sporting planning.
This revolution excites the red-and-white fans, who are eagerly awaiting the resumption of the season to see their new signings in action . With a renewed and ambitious squad, Atlético de Madrid is looking to return to success in European football. During this break we have been able to see how their star signing, Julián Álvarez , has sharpened his aim and has had a great game.
Julian Alvarez excels in his first match with Argentina
Julián Álvarez has shown his quality in the last match of the Argentine national team, in which he had an outstanding performance. In Argentina's victory (3-0) against Chile, he scored a great goal to give the (2-0) to the Argentines . Giovani Lo Celso assisted the Atlético de Madrid striker, who defined with a great left-footed shot that bounced off the crossbar before going in.
The curious thing about this goal is that Julián Álvarez did not celebrate immediately, as he did not realise at the time that the ball had entered the goal. The Chilean goalkeeper, Gabriel Arias , was completely far from the ball due to the precision of the shot, seeing how the attacker fine-tunes his aim ahead of his first season with the colchoneros. This goal is a message of what is to come, and Diego Pablo Simeone is confident that Julián Álvarez will become a benchmark.
With this performance, Julián Álvarez continues to show that he should be an undisputed starter at Atlético de Madrid. The red-and-white fans have high expectations of the striker, who seems to be finding his best form before his return to the Madrid team. We will see if he manages to score his first goal in the next match against Valencia.
