Gil Marín receives the offer: money for Javi Guerra, goodbye to Julián Alvárez's friend

The red-and-white club knows of the interest of two clubs in one of its forwards

The transfer market is in full swing, and Atletico Madrid are no exception. Among the players who could leave the club, Angel Correa has emerged as a likely candidate . The arrival of Julian Alvarez has complicated his situation in the team, causing his playing time to decrease. This new reality has put his future in the Spanish capital in doubt.

Correa's complicated situation

Correa has been a key figure for Atlético Madrid in recent years. However, the competition up front has intensified with the arrival of Julián Álvarez.

Although Correa has expressed his intention to stay, the change in the team's dynamic has led him to reconsider his decision. The reduction in playing time is a real concern for the Argentine player.

Offer for Correa

Atletico Madrid could receive an offer of between 18 and 20 million euros for Correa. Clubs such as Besiktas and Al-Gharafa are interested in acquiring the striker. For Gil Marín, this offer represents an opportunity to generate significant income. In addition, releasing Correa could open up space in the squad for new signings to strengthen the team.

Opportunity to sign Javi Guerra

Atlético de Madrid were very close to signing Javi Guerra last week. The red-and-whites agreed with Valencia to pay 25 million euros for him, but finally backed out. This was because their priority, Connor Gallagher, gave them the go-ahead to wear red-and-white next season.

Now things have become more complicated with the Englishman, as Chelsea have not fulfilled the agreement they had with Atlético de Madrid. The London club was going to sign Samu Omorodion, for the same amount that Gil Marín was going to bring Gallagher. Now, this possibility has become more complicated and Javi Guerra's name is gaining ground again, despite trying to make Connor the signing.

The impact of this movement

The possible departure of Correa and the arrival of Guerra could mark a before and after in Atlético de Madrid's planning. The sale of Correa would not only ease the club's finances, but would also allow the entry of a player with great potential. With Guerra in the team, Atlético would prepare to face the challenges of the new season with a younger and more dynamic squad.
