In case you missed it during Atlanta United’s draw with CF Montreal last night, The Athletic dropped some news stating that Argentine midfielder Thiago Almada will not be joining Atlanta during the summer transfer window that shuts Thursday.
The report states that, according to multiple sources, Atlanta “will not sign” Almada this window, but adds that the club will continue its pursuit of the player and hopes to secure him under contract in the offseason.
According to the renowned Argentine-based journalist Cesar Luis Merlo, Velez had agreed to an offer sent by Atlanta United and the player spent the week preparing for a move with a physical examination and acquisition of a P1 visa.
