Official: Juventus loan David to Atletico Madrid with €25m option to buy
Juventus have confirmed the loan of Canadian striker Jonathan David to Atletico Madrid, with the La Liga side holding a €25 million purchase option. David joined Juventus in the summer but has struggled for consistent minutes, prompting the move. Atletico Madrid add a proven goalscorer to bolster Diego Simeone's attacking options, while Juventus free up wage space and a squad spot. The deal includes no obligation to buy, giving Atletico flexibility to assess David before committing permanently.
Read the full story at football-italia.netJonathan David's switch to Atletico Madrid is a pragmatic move on both sides. For Juventus, offloading a high-earning forward who hasn't settled clears the path for younger attacking options and eases financial commitments. For Atletico, David represents a low-risk, high-upside addition — a player with a strong goalscoring track record in Ligue 1 seeking to reignite his career in a new environment. Diego Simeone's system has historically thrived with mobile, clinical strikers, and David fits that profile if he adapts quickly to La Liga's demands.
