The refusal of Atlético de Madrid to Real Madrid's offer for Julián Álvarez surprised the football world, both by the offer and by the response. River Plate was not an exception, as it could have received a few million if the transfer had been confirmed. The forward arrived at River with 15 years, from his club in Calchín and his departure was seven years later, when he was 22, who was bought by Manchester City. In this way, the team of Núñez corresponds to a percentage of 3.75% of the transfer. Taking into account this portion corresponding to the Argentine team, a positive response from the Colchonero would have meant an income of 5.6 million euros for its economy. Without a doubt, a figure that fell like a ring on the finger with all the transfer market ahead. Atlético de Madrid stood firm and assured that it will not let the Spider go for less than the amount of its exit clause. This means that whoever wants to get his services, will have to pay 500 million euros. If it happens (seems impossible), River will receive a fortune. The calculations indicate that if someone pays that amount, the Millionaire will correspond to 19.5 million euros. Practically, it would receive almost the same as it sold to Manchester City in mid-2022. Real Madrid C. F. communicates that, after the meeting of the Board of Directors held today, it has made an offer of 150 million euros to Club Atlético de Madrid for the federative rights of player Julián Álvarez. After studying and valuing it, Club Atlético de Madrid has thanked the offer made, made in the framework of the good relations existing between both clubs, and has rejected it referring to the player's release clause. Julián Álvarez remains in Atlético de Madrid after being rejected by Real Madrid. The 3.75% of the transfer belongs to River Plate, avoiding an income of 5.6 million. The clause of 500 million euros would mean 19.5 million for the Argentine team.
