Atlético Madrid Seal Loan Deal for Nico González From Juventus With €32m Option

The winger requested a change of club due to a tactical mismatch under Igor Tudor.

Overview

  • Juventus and Atlético confirmed a deadline-day move structured as a €1m paid loan with an option that can become an obligation to buy for €32m, lifting the total package to roughly €33–34m with bonuses.
  • La Liga has yet to confirm González’s registration for Atlético, and no significant departures were completed to free salary space on deadline day.
  • González pushed to exit after being earmarked for an unfamiliar wing‑back role at Juventus, targeting a wide attacking role under Diego Simeone.
  • Juventus began retooling their attack, with Edon Zhegrova and Lois Openda reported to have undergone medicals on deadline day.
  • An earlier idea to exchange González for Atlético right-back Nahuel Molina was explored but ultimately dropped late in the window.
