With the transfer season coming to an end, we are nearing some incredible last-minute deals. Without a doubt, Chelsea has been the club that has made the most buzz. The striker position has been one of the most in demand and searched for by Marseca. The appointment of the Italian manager has not changed the long-term search for a definite striker. The recent target by Enzo Maresca has been Samu Omorodion of Atletico Madrid. This has created a saga in itself within Transfer market, which has turned into a dangerous triangle deal. This not only involves the blues but also the light blues. The main concern lies, however, with Diego Simieone, who is trying to pull off one of the major stunts by creating a dream team. This ambitious project has several layers to it, but its primary concern is argentine star Julian Alvarez.
Julian Alvarez to Atletico saga: Chelsea makes switches
Atletico has agreed to a deal with Manchester City for over 95 million pounds. This is one of the biggest deals in Atletico Madrid’s history. The last deal of Jao Felix did not land as per expectations, and with Alvaro Morata leaving for AC Milan, Simeone is in need of a strong forward. It is quite intriguing to think why Simeone is not utilising the strong future prospect of Samu Omorodion, who is balling quite well for Spain in the Olympics. The answer somewhere also lies with the marketing prospect and looking for a superstar marquee. Atletico Madrid have always found themselves to be one of the strongest teams in Europe for the past 10 years, but they surely lacked icons as magnanimous as those of their nearby rivals. The Felix project failure has given rise to trust in Julian Alvarez.
Alvarez will join for an initial £64.4m, with a further £17.1m in potential add-ons, and Atletico will be required to raise certain funds for themselves. The sale of Omorodion only makes proper sense. With Conor Gallagher and Sorloth joining Atletico soon, they will be in need of some additional funds. Conor Gallagher has agreed to join the Spanish giants for 33 million pounds. This is quite a steal in today’s market for a player of such high calibre and potential. Chelsea, on the other hand, is continuously building their team and have spent about 115 million pounds. The names of the players to start fresh at Stamford Bridge are: Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Renato Veiga, and Omari Kellyman, plus goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen, defenders Adarabioyo and Caleb Wiley, winger Estevao Willian, and striker Marc Guiu. Few players have left Chelsea, like Maatsen, Lewis Hall, and forward Hutchinson, while Lukaku’s position is still uncertain.
Dream teams in Spain and England
With time passing and a change of ownership, both Chelsea and Atletico have suffered to several lengths. Both of these clubs have the power to dominate in Europe and have done so previously. The managers are ambitious about their projects and are constantly trying to improve their squad. What is fascinating is that they both want to achieve titles with their respective clubs. Maresca has been given the mammoth task of re-establishing Chelsea from scratch. With their history of sacking, it can be any moment that Maresca’s time is cut short. On the other hand, Simeone, being one of the most experienced and oldest managers in the game, is trying to uplift his glory days. He is looking to establish his aura, which definitely looks ambitious and promising with the signing of new boys. The attack is going to be dreadful, and we will see a new Atletico this time.
