🔴⚪ Thank you, Atletico Madrid 🔴⚪
After three seasons of playing for Atletico Madrid, it is time to say goodbye.
I want to thank the club, my teammates, coaching staff and all the fans for giving me a warm welcome since the first day I came here. Thank you for your trust, passion and unconditional support.
Here, I have experienced many exciting moments, full of emotions, challenges, victory and incomparable pride. It is a glory to be able to defend this jersey, and I will always cherish the special memories of this career.
Thank you for everything. This is not a farewell, but a goodbye.
Atle Madrid, come on ❤️🤍
