MADRID (SPAIN) (ITALPRESS) – As the final day of the transfer window arrives, Jonathan David has made such an impact that Atlético Madrid already appears determined to keep him. According to “Relevo,” the Canadian forward—who arrived from Juventus—has won over the Colchoneros by performing well beyond expectations: in six appearances totaling 251 minutes, he has already recorded three goals and two assists, all in La Liga. Benefiting from the fact that Álvarez was not yet fully match-fit and Sørloth was sidelined, David seized the opportunities given to him by Simeone, proving he is well-suited to the coach’s tactical system.
The Argentine manager himself praised David’s impact following Tuesday’s Champions League victory over United, stating: “He brings something we didn’t have; he’s a forward who naturally drifts toward the right and puts in a great defensive shift for the team.” For this reason, the club is seriously considering a permanent signing, intending to exercise the €25 million purchase option agreed upon with Juventus at the time of the initial loan.
