Posted on December 4, 2021 at 12:10 am by AM While Vélez Sarsfield has formalized the departure of Thiago Almada to Atlanta, the MLS club denies the arrival of the young Argentinian. A boon for OM? Last summer, OM was busy completing the arrival of 11 players. However, Pablo Longoria failed to complete all open cases. Indeed, Jorge Sampaoli wanted to see land Thiago Almada . In vain. And while the track still seemed active, this file was definitively closed on Friday evening with the press release from Vélez Sarsfield which formalizes the departure of the young Argentinian attacking midfielder to Atlanta United for around € 14m. A transfer which must be effective in February 2022. But Atlanta United completely relaunch this file. Through a statement posted on Twitter, the MLS club strongly denies a final agreement for the transfer of Thiago Almada . “We have seen reports regarding Thiago Almada. We have not made a commitment to acquire the player at this time; we can confirm that we retain an exclusive option of final player transfer. The option extends until 2022. We will not make any other comments on the player for the moment ”, explains this press release. Therefore, the OM may still have a say in this file. We have seen reports about Thiago Almada. We have not committed to acquiring the player at this time; we can confirm that we retain an exclusive option to permanently transfer the player. The option extends into 2022. We will have no further comment on the player at this time. – Atlanta United FC (@ATLUTD) December 4, 2021
