Waiting made Jonathan Clauss desperate with Atleti

Atletico Madrid tried to sign Jonathan Clauss during the last transfer window, but the story ended with Nahuel Molina joining Simeone's side.

Despite the arrival of the former Udinese man, the French player was very close to the Spanish club. The player agreed with the conditions agreed between his agents and the club, but an external matter led to the failure of the operation, according to 'La Voix du Nord'.

Atletico Madrid asked Jonathan Clauss to wait, as they could not sign him due to financial problems. However, the Frenchman set a deadline for the start of the pre-season, as another proposal from Olympique Marseille was awaiting a response.

The rest is history. The board could not turn the situation around before the agreed date and the player opted for the runner-up of the French League. As a result, the Madrid side went all out for Nahuel Molina.
