Atlético Madrid rejects €30M bid from Chelsea

In a decisive move, Atlético Madrid has turned down a formal bid from Chelsea for their rising star, Samu Omorodion.

The proposal, which included an initial €30 million fee plus add-ons that could bring the total package to €40 million, was firmly rejected by the Spanish club earlier today.

Despite Chelsea’s persistent interest and their search for a new striker, Atlético Madrid remains steadfast in their commitment to retain Omorodion. The 20-year-old forward has been a pivotal figure in Atlético’s plans, and the club is determined to keep him as a key part of their future squad.

Chelsea, not deterred by the rejection, continues to explore other options in the market. Alongside Omorodion, they are also considering Jhon Durán as a potential candidate to bolster their attacking lineup. The London-based club is keen to strengthen its squad and add depth to its offensive capabilities ahead of the upcoming season.

As the transfer window progresses, fans watch closely to see if Chelsea will return with an improved offer or shift their focus entirely to other targets. For now, Atlético Madrid has made it clear that Samu Omorodion is not for sale.
