It was the deal that marked the closing hours of the market, namely in Spain: Saúl Ñíguez from Atlético Madrid to Chelsea, Antoine Griezmann from Barcelona to At. Madrid and Luuk De Jong from Sevilla to Barça. A triple transfer that you were about to collapse but which, according to some Spanish press, took place at 23:59, in other words, one minute before the limit! Meanwhile, the clubs are already making their transfers official, all on loan.
Everything was, however, dependent on Saul. In other words, if the medium continued in Spain, the remaining businesses would be doomed. However, the Spanish international’s move to London opened the way for the completion of the others. Moreover, the Spanish League commented on the matter, as all the deals were only officialized ‘after the hour’: “As it could have been, no extra time was granted. The transfers of Griezmann and De Jong entered in time.”
Atlético Madrid are thus left with a fearsome attacking front, made up of Luis Suárez, Griezmann, João Félix, Ángel Correa, Carrasco and Lemar.
