UEFA Champions League
Atlético de Madrid seems to have made one of the biggest mistakes in the last transfer market by selling Samu Omorodion to FC Porto for 15 million euros. At 20 years old, the Spanish forward is making a tremendous impact in Portugal, scoring four goals in his first four matches. Meanwhile, the colchonero team is suffering from a clear lack of goals, with only 10 goals in six LaLiga matches before their encounter with Celta de Vigo. The recent additions, Alexander Sorloth and Julián Álvarez, have not been decisive yet, only managing two goals together in seven matches.
Omorodion, a negative sale
The decision to sell Omorodion was driven by the lack of playing time the forward would have in the team, given the arrivals of Sorloth and Álvarez. However, judging by the young Spanish player's performance at Porto, it seems that Atlético may have rushed his departure. Omorodion has showcased his goal-scoring ability with the Portuguese team, becoming a key player in record time. This streak has not only surprised Porto fans but is also sparking rumors about his future, with the possibility that the Portuguese club could sell him for an amount that could triple what they paid for him.
While Atlético struggles to improve their offensive effectiveness, Omorodion continues to increase his market value. FC Porto, known for their ability to sell players with great profit margins, could benefit from this situation. If he maintains this level of performance, it would not be surprising if his 100 million euro release clause is tested in the near future, something that unfortunately Atlético de Madrid will have to observe from a distance.
