While Messi plans his arrival in Barcelona, the shocking news that his best friend gives him

Rodrigo de Paul arrived at Atlético de Madrid in 2021, from Udinese, and was questioned by the 'colchoneros' fans as soon as he stepped foot in the Metropolitan. Before playing the World Cup in Qatar, they even came to ask that it be sold. However, everything changed in recent months and his permanence is not in doubt, despite the fact that there is interest in Italy for him.

The relationship between supporters of Atlético de Madrid and the world champion was not the best before the competition held in the Middle East. Months before the World Cup, the "Motorcito" of the National Team was involved in a controversy, since he requested a family permit and was seen with Tini, his girlfriend, at a party in Miami. After this, they exploded with fury in Spain and demanded that he leave the institution.

However, the anger has translated into applause for the Argentine national team in recent months. His outstanding performances, after recovering from the injury he suffered in the World Cup, caused the fans to change their minds. Now, according to information from 'Marca', De Paul is one of the most beloved elements and the board is not evaluating his departure.

Until when does Rodrigo de Paul have a contract with Atlético de Madrid?

The world champion has a contract with Atlético de Madrid until 2026 and the board expects him to fulfill his contract, despite clubs like Roma, Inter Milan, AC Milan and Juventus showing interest in him. The change in behavior of the 'mattress' fans would make the midfielder change his mind and not think about going out. Currently, according to the 'Transfermarkt' portal, De Paul has a market value of 40 million euros.
