By chance! As: Atletico Madrid almost signed Lautaro + Turam Jr.
In 2022, Atletico Madrid director Berta intends to sign Toulam Jr., when his contract with Borussia Mönchengladbach expires in a few months. In January 2023, Atletico Madrid asked Borussia Mönchengladbach for a price of 12 million euros, so Atletico Madrid decided to wait for Tulah to join the company after the expiration of its contract. But in the summer window of 2023, after Toram Jr. became a free agent, Inter Milan defeated Atletico Madrid with a richer signing fee and successfully signed Toram Jr.
Compared to Touram Jr., Lautaro Martinez was closer to joining Atletico Madrid that year. Lautaro's agent Alejandro Camanio confirmed to the Ass: "Laotaro has always liked Spain, and the two sides were infinitely close to each other." In fact, Lautaro had negotiated with Atletico Madrid in 2017, and the media also took photos of Lautaro signing a contract with Atletico Madrid. But before Atletico Madrid officially paid a 12 million euro termination fee, Lautaro renewed the contract with the Argentine Athletic Club, and the termination fee increased to 25 million euros, and the deal also aborted. Finally, in 2018, Inter Milan successfully signed Lautaro.
