Julián Álvarez has been the icing on the cake of a tremendously important transfer in the history of Atlético de Madrid, in which its fans have suffered and enjoyed in equal measure. "La Araña" has been the star signing for an Atlético committed from the first minute to his signing, which has generated great excitement among its fans. The colchonera fans put all their hopes in the young striker, who has rejected Manchester City and PSG to play for Atlético.
Julián is determined to bring a lot of joy to the Atlético de Madrid team and he intends to prove that assuming his high price will be worth it. The Argentine is ambitious and, having already won everything that can be won at a collective level in professional football, he takes on this new challenge with great enthusiasm. Determined to mark an era at Atlético de Madrid, Julián Álvarez is already a reality for Atlético de Madrid and will be presented at the Metropolitano in the coming days.
Julian's arrival at Atletico Madrid
After months of rumours and back and forth, Julián has ended up at the red-and-white club after much effort and persistence on the part of the colchoneros. The problem was not convincing the Argentine, but rather pleasing the cityzen sheikh, who was not willing to let him go just like that. In an exercise of tenacity in which they have not thrown in the towel at any time, Atlético closed the definitive operation a few days ago and today they have made it official.
Álvarez has passed his medical without any problems after spending a few weeks on holiday as the Copa América champion. Julián had permission from City to leave the club if the financial demands imposed by Guardiola and the sheikh were accepted. Having accepted this huge sum of money, Atlético has secured his services and now has a world-class player.
The Simeones, top-notch agents
Giuliano Simeone , the youngest of the family, shared a changing room with Julián during the Games and was quite insistent that "La Araña" should come to Atlético . His father, Diego Pablo Simeone , did not stop calling him, as Julián himself declared, until he had convinced him 100% and received the approval from the striker. Without a doubt, two of the architects of the incredible move have been the Simeones , a family very committed to the red and white cause and who have made the move possible.
The fans, a reception at the height
The passion of the red and whites is incalculable, so much so that they are capable of following a private Ibiza-Madrid flight and receiving their new player at the Barajas airport. Anxious to see him in red and white, the Atlético fans gave him a welcome at the airport, shocking a footballer who is already a Colchonero. The Atlético fans do not skimp and, once again, showed their greatness to a player who promises a lot, and who has returned the hope to the entire fan base.
