The transaction will be formalized through a capital increase , which will allow Apollo to become the majority shareholder of Atleti at the beginning of January 2026 .

The process will ensure a crucial financial injection without requiring the current management to step aside completely, as both Gil Marín and Enrique Cerezo will retain part of their shares.

Sources close to the negotiations emphasize that the agreement aims to guarantee stability and future growth , while maintaining the current sporting structure.

Thus, it is expected that Simeone and his team’s project will benefit from the new economic power that the fund will bring to the club.

This new capital will allow Atlético de Madrid to compete more strongly on the international stage and within LaLiga.

Apollo’s entry represents not just an investment, but a long-term strategic vision that seeks to establish Atleti as a powerhouse in world football .

The change in majority control is a clear indication of the growing appeal of European football and the strength of the Atlético de Madrid brand.

Fans hope that this new phase under Apollo’s leadership will take the club to new sporting successes , while preserving the identity built during the Simeone era .
