Total surprise in the operation of Samu Omorodion and Conor Gallagher , which could affect the arrival of Julián Álvarez . The Argentine is already in Madrid , waiting to be able to undergo his medical tomorrow. The footballer from Calchín arrived in the afternoon on a private flight, from Ibiza , to Barajas Airport , where he was expected by many fans.
According to Marcos Benito , the Canarian journalist from El Chiringuito de Jugones, the footballer from Melilla will return to Madrid in the next few hours. The goalscorer has just been crowned Olympic champion with the Spanish team in Paris, scoring a goal in the tournament. The Spanish goalscorer will not be signing for Chelsea Football Club at this time, due to a change in conditions.
Joao Felix back to Chelsea?
Now, the clubs are in contact to find an alternative, and one of them is the possible return of João Félix to Chelsea . The Viseu native would go to the London club, and the English team could pay a good transfer fee for the Portuguese player. Atlético will not ask for less than the 45 million that it has to pay off in the case of the Portuguese player.
As for Julián Álvarez , as confirmed live on Bendita Afición Rojiblanca by the Argentine journalist from RELEVO , Marcos Durán , Julián would give up money if necessary to join Atlético . He has no doubts about staying in the capital of Spain, and for his part he will do everything in his power to stay.
Samu Omorodion: He could stay at Atlético
Samu Omorodion , who did not want to go to Chelsea or England , rejected proposals from Julen Lopetegui 's West Ham . The Spaniard wanted to take the striker to the Premier League and did not reach an agreement with the player. Omorodion played a season on loan at Alavés , where he scored eight goals and an additional goal with Granada Club de Fútbol .
That goal, precisely, was against Atlético de Madrid, the colchoneros had already been following the player from the Granada team. He exploded at Recreativo Granada , and Paco López gave him the chance to debut in the First Division . It was at Civitas Metropolitano , where he played his first match and scored his first goal as a professional in La Liga EA SPORTS .
Oshimen the favourite for Chelsea
Chelsea are looking for another type of striker, with Victor Osimhen in the mix as their favourite. Although the Nigerian's price is much higher, around 100 million euros, they are counting on Romelu Lukaku to make the deal cheaper. The Belgian wants to go to Italy and play with Antonio Conte , with whom he already played at Internazionale Milano .
The clubs will continue to negotiate to find a payment formula so that Conor Gallagher can be given the green light. João Félix will return a year and a half later to London , where he acted for six months on loan from Atlético de Madrid . Julián Álvarez hopes to pass the medical examination early on Monday at the Vithas clinic in Madrid .
