Madrid's Atlético had run out of patience.

On social media, following rumors about Julian Alvarez's transfer to Barcelona, the Madrid club prepared its response.

Atlético published the favorite phrase of journalist Fabrizio Romano, "Here we go", which is used after completed negotiations. The phrase was added to edited photos of Barcelona leaders Raphinha, Pedri, and Lamine Yamal, where they are wearing the opponents' team jerseys.

Next to L. Yamal's photo, the Madrid club wrote: "Here we go! We have sent a fax to Barcelona with our transfer offer: 4 tickets to Bad Bunny's concert, an annual ABC subscription, and a bag of sunflower seeds. We are eagerly awaiting their response to prepare the big 'announcement'."

Atlético is not planning to sell J. Alvarez and is very upset about various rumors.
