Morientes reveals why he didn't sign for Atlético after negotiating with Jesús Gil
Fernando Morientes, former player of Real Madrid, Zaragoza, Liverpool or Monaco, has revealed in a podcast why he did not sign for Atlético de Madrid despite having negotiations with Jesús Gil. Morientes was 18 years old and was standing out in Albacete when Atlético de Madrid called his door.
The colchonero team was the favorite of the player, as in addition to its importance, it was close to Sonseca, Toledo, where he lived. However, the negotiation with Jesús Gil was twisted when talking about money and was offered to pay in kind, in apartments in Marbella. Finally, Morientes left for Zaragoza and then for Real Madrid, where he made a career to be an idol of the merengue fanbase.
