Atletico Madrid launched a series of social‑media posts mocking Barcelona after rumors surfaced about Julian Álvarez’s potential move to the Catalan club.
The Madrid side posted satirical “transfer offers” for Lamine Yamal, Pedri and Raphinha, using exaggerated and humorous terms.
In one tweet, the club claimed to have sent a fax to Barcelona with a bid for Yamal that included “four tickets to tomorrow’s Bad Bunny concert, an annual subscription to ABC, and a bag of sunflower seeds.”
“HERE WE GO! We have sent a fax to @FCBarcelona_es with our transfer offer: 4 tickets for tomorrow’s Bad Bunny concert, an annual subscription to ABC, and a bag of sunflower seeds. We eagerly await the response to prepare the ‘announce’.”
Another post followed, this time about Pedri. Atletico said it had run out of tickets for the Saturday show, so it offered “six tickets for the Sunday concert” instead.
“HERE WE GO! For this second offer we’ve encountered a problem, we’ve run out of tickets for tomorrow’s concert, so we enhance the previous proposal with 6 for the one on Sunday.”
The third mock bid targeted Raphinha and proposed a season‑long loan. The club joked that the deal would also include “Tom Ford and Smith” on loan, with no option to buy.
“HERE WE GO! And to complete the 3×1, we’ve gotten all carried away and we’re going to throw the little house out the window: the player arrives on loan for a season and in exchange we loan out Tom Ford and Smith with no option to buy. An offer impossible to refuse.”
Atletico’s posts, all beginning with the phrase “Here We Go,” were a response to reports linking Álvarez with a move to Camp Nou. The club’s social‑media team also targeted Fabrizio Romano, who has been closely covering the transfer speculation.
