Valencian Talent Strengthens the Colchoneros Academy
Atlético de Madrid continues to bet heavily on young talent and has completed the signing of Javi Tena, a promising midfielder from Valencia CF Juvenil. Despite interest from other big clubs such as Barça and Real Madrid, Tena has opted for the Rojiblanco project, demonstrating Atlético’s ability to attract even the future stars of Spanish football.
Tena, a pivot with great projection and an imposing physique (1.90 m), stands out for his tactical intelligence and his experience in the lower categories of the Spanish national team.
His arrival at the Metropolitano represents an important reinforcement for the Academy, consolidating the club’s commitment to training the players of the future.
The player himself has expressed his gratitude to Valencia CF, where he has spent the last nine years, but has also expressed his disappointment at not having had the opportunity to continue growing in his home club. “I will not be a prophet in my land,” Tena lamented in an emotional farewell message, making clear his commitment and dedication in this new stage as an Atlético de Madrid player. Undoubtedly, a great addition for the future of the club.
