Samuel Omorodion: Why Atletico Madrid signed Granada wonderkid
Samuel Omorodion made history with Granada against Atletico Madrid but has now joined the club on a long-term contract.
Alaves sealed a season-long loan transfer from Atletico Madrid for the highly-rated Spanish-born Nigerian striker on Saturday.
Pulse Sports reported that Omorodion completed the move just five days after his release clause was activated by Atleti to prise him away from Granada.
Omorodion’s form
The forward made his debut against his now-parent club during the season opener at the Wanda Metropolitano.
Omorodion opened his account for the season in that clash before he was snapped up by Diego Simeone’s Atleti.
He went on to pen a five-year contract with the capital club which will expire in the summer of 2028.
However, the club decided that it would be better to send him out on loan to allow him to continue his development, with Alaves the preferred destination.
