Manu Sanchez is still waiting for the confirmation of its assignment to Osasuna for the next season. Although the agreement is total between the clubs, and also the rojiblanco squad with the rojilla entity, everything happens because the Atlético de Madrid give the definitive 'OK' to the operation.
And that happens because from the Metropolitan they close the arrival of Mathías Olivera, for which they are negotiating with Getafe. The initial request of the azulón club was for ten million euros and the transfer of Victor Mollejo, but Atlético works to reduce that amount.
Back to Manu, after receiving his first call-up with the Spanish Under-21 team (he did not have minutes against North Macedonia), the full-back will return to Madrid and, unless the club decides otherwise, the preseason will begin under the orders of Simeone. Until the arrival of Olive, you will not have a free way out. Something that can harm him, considering that the start of LaLiga is just around the corner and although Osasuna is aware of the situation, he does not want to wait forever.
Atlético trusts Manu and count on him for the future. He already has a first team contract and the intention they had in the Metropolitano is to extend his contract again, revised last year, and which ends in 2023.
