Simeone: Julián's situation is very clear; the club has decided

Atlético Madrid coach Diego Simeone has definitively stated that the club will not sell forward Julián Álvarez, emphasizing that the player's situation is "very clear." Simeone confirmed that the club's management has made a firm decision not to transfer the Argentine international. He added that from a sporting perspective, Atlético is very pleased to have Álvarez and will support his continued growth and performance. This stance comes despite persistent interest from Barcelona and Álvarez's own expressed desire to be transferred earlier in the summer to fulfill a "dream." The club's CEO, Miguel Ángel Gil Marín, has previously been emphatic, stating that Atlético would not accept offers of 100 million euros, 150 million euros, or even 200 million euros for the player, whose contract runs until June 30, 2030, with a release clause of 500 million euros. Simeone reiterated that Atlético is the ideal place for Álvarez and that Álvarez is the perfect striker for the team. The club has also taken formal action, filing a complaint with the Royal Spanish Football Federation against Barcelona for alleged illicit contact with Álvarez, who is under contract.

I think the situation is very clear. The entity has made a decision that Miguel Ángel has explained very well.
