💥Row over Julián: Atlético Madrid to report Barcelona to FIFA

💥Row over Julián: Atlético Madrid to report Barcelona to FIFA

The Spanish football transfer market is engulfed in a full-blown institutional scandal. Atlético Madrid has made the firm decision to file a formal complaint against FC Barcelona with FIFA, accusing the Catalan club of having improperly negotiated with Argentine striker Julián Álvarez.

Repeat-offense accusations and unrest

From the offices of the Colchonero side, the frustration is total. According to information published by Diario AS, the Rojiblanco board maintains that Barcelona acts like a "cheating club," systematically breaking the transfer regulations of world football’s governing body.

At the Metropolitano, they claim the Blaugrana institution is repeating exactly the same illegal approach it used in the past to secure the services of Antoine Griezmann and, more recently, winger Nico Williams, although in the latter case it was unsuccessful.

A breakdown in institutional relations

This drastic legal move promises to completely sever the diplomatic relations between the two LaLiga institutions. Atlético will seek to have FIFA impose exemplary sanctions on Barcelona for contacting the Córdoba-born footballer directly without any formal negotiations having been initiated between the clubs that own his registration.
