Atlético de Madrid Blames Barcelona Over Julián Álvarez Stalemate

Atlético de Madrid said it is fed up with the Julián Álvarez saga. The club made the comment just after the season ended and before the transfer window opened. The statement was given to MD, where the club described the situation as a "culebrón". It highlighted the growing irritation within the Metropolitano. Atlético directly blamed Barcelona for the attitude shown in recent months toward the Argentine international. The club said Barcelona's behavior has intensified the stalemate. Atlético also declared that Julián Álvarez is not for sale. The club's position rejects any transfer speculation at this stage. The market has not opened, meaning no formal offers can be processed yet. Thus any potential move remains impossible until the window begins. Looking ahead, Atlético de Madrid will concentrate on preparing for the next campaign. The club expects to resolve the Álvarez issue internally before any external negotiations.
