Atlético de Madrid has initiated formal contact with Juventus to inquire about the conditions for the transfer of Jonathan David. The next Atlético de Madrid signing will be a forward.

According to Fabrizio Romano, the Atlético de Madrid sports management made an exploratory call without yet presenting a written proposal, assessing the feasibility of the operation in this summer market given the €30 million valuation set by the Italian club.

Reasons for Jonathan David's Departure from Juventus

The forward seeks a change after losing prominence in Luciano Spalletti's squad, sitting on the bench without playing minutes in the last Serie A match against Frosinone. The Italian coach publicly criticized David's lack of intensity on the field, accelerating Juventus' readiness to entertain offers before September 1.

Despite featuring as a starter for Canada in the 2026 World Cup, David did not establish himself in the Italian squad after his first year at the club. Juventus aims to reorganize its forward line and is willing to transfer the player if the €30 million figure is met.

Atlético de Madrid's Plan for the Future of Their Forward Line

The Atlético de Madrid board evaluates the Canadian forward amid uncertainty surrounding Julián Álvarez's continuity in the squad, as indicated by http://Gazzetta.it. The capital club is analyzing offensive profiles with the ability to make runs and presence in the box to strengthen Diego Simeone's tactical setup before the end of the transfer period.

Although there are no active official discussions between the two entities, Juventus' response allows the Spanish team to understand the financial margin needed to make an offer. The operation will depend directly on the outgoing moves that the Madrid club executes in the coming days.

The Atlético de Madrid sports management will hold an internal meeting within the next 24 hours. In this closed meeting, the club's executives will decide whether to submit a first written offer to Juventus for David or keep the negotiation on hold pending resolution of the forward exits.
