Getafe announced this Sunday the arrival of Vitolo after reaching an agreement with Atlético for his transfer. « Getafe CF and Atlético de Madrid reach an agreement in principle for the transfer of Víctor Machín Pérez «VITOLO», in the absence of a medical examination», indicates the official statement from the Madrid club.
«The Canarian international midfielder, trained in the UD Las Palmas youth academy, played for Sevilla FC where he won 3 Europa League Championships in 2014, 2015 and 2016, in addition to adding a League title with Atlético de Madrid in in 2021, a European Super Cup in 2018 and another Europa League Championship in 2018. The presentation will be on Monday, July 5, at 12:00 p.m. in the Coliseum press room, “adds the statement .
Vitolo arrived at Atlético in January 2018 from Las Palmas. The player paid his clause of 40 million euros in July 2017 to leave Sevilla for the Spanish capital, but since Atlético could not register players due to the FIFA sanction until the winter market, he returned to Las Palmas. The Canarian came from performing at a high level at Sevilla and was presented as a great signing for the rojiblanco team.
However, he has not been able to show his best version. This last season has barely counted for Simeone . Vitolo has played a total of 15 games in which he has given an assist. Cholo no longer had him and the club has decided to let him go to free up wage bills, in search of new reinforcements. Vitolo now begins a new stage at Getafe de Míchel where he hopes to rediscover his best version, the one that led him to debut with the Spanish team and be a fundamental pillar at Sevilla.
