Atletico Madrid made significant efforts to reach an agreement with Lyon for Nicolas Tagliafico before the transfer window closed. According to Romano, Financial Fair Play regulations prevented the transfer's completion.

According to AS, Atlético's recent attempt to sign Nicolás Tagliafico failed after being close to completion. In the final hours, Atlético attempted to sign the player, who was also wanted by Juventus, and Tagliafico approved the transfer upon learning of the interest. Difficulties arose when Lyon did not manage to register his replacement, Youssouf Fofana from Milan, in time, although this was a surmountable obstacle. However, Atlético was unable to register Tagliafico due to a lack of salary margin. The club had wanted the deal to be a low-cost operation.

Nicolás Tagliafico became a potential transfer for Atlético de Madrid on the final day of the transfer window. The 34-year-old Argentinian international left-back is considered suitable due to his experience and qualities. A potential transfer would likely be a loan, which is the type of deal Atlético is seeking in the final stages of the market. The club has the player's approval for the transfer, but it is also reported that Tagliafico has given his approval to Juventus, a club that is also interested. A potential deal is facilitated by his current club, Olympique de Lyon, being eliminated in the Champions League qualifying phase. The defender has 83 caps for Argentina and is under contract at Lyon until June 2027. His current market value, according to Transfermarkt, is €4.00m. He transferred to the French club from Ajax in July 2022 for a €4.2m fee, while reports from November 2024 suggested that a potential transfer to Juventus could have a fee of under €5m.
