The incredible mistake that Atlético made with Omorodion

Atlético Madrid has made an unforgivable mistake in the sale of Samu Omorodion to Porto. The young Spanish forward, considered one of the most promising talents in European football, moved to the Portuguese club last summer for 15 million euros. However, what seemed like a beneficial deal for Atlético's finances has now turned into a real headache for the club's sports management, as they did not include a buy-back clause in the negotiation, something they deeply regret now.

Omorodion has shown spectacular performance in his new stage in Portugal, and Porto now values him at 100 million euros. Atlético Madrid is in a delicate situation, as the only option to bring him back would be to make an offer for 50% of his rights, an operation that would cost them approximately 50 million euros, a figure that seems exorbitant for the Madrid club.

The relief that Atlético hopes to have in the future

If Atlético fails to reach an agreement with Porto for Omorodion's return, the only viable alternative is to wait for a third club to present an offer close to 100 million for the forward. In that case, Atlético would receive 50% of the total operation, namely 50 million euros, which added to the 15 million they already received last summer, would make the bad deal more bearable.

This mistake by the Atlético board could have serious consequences for the club, seeing how one of their great promises of Spanish football could become a star outside Atlético. Undoubtedly, a disastrous operation that already offers lessons for the future.
