According to AS, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid will be looking to restore and re-establish their working relationship after tension between the two parties during the summer owing to the Julian Alvarez transfer saga.
Barça president Joan Laporta will lead the club’s delegation to the Riyadh Air Metropolitano for Sunday’s La Liga encounter between the two teams. The club’s directors are also expected to attend a pre-match lunch with their Atlético Madrid counterparts, in what will be a public show of reconciliation after everything went down in the summer.
The disagreement between the two clubs centred on Barcelona’s interest in signing Julian Alvarez in the summer transfer window. Throughout the window, Laporta maintained that the Blaugrana had behaved correctly, arguing that they had made an offer and were prepared to discuss the possibility of a transfer.
