Atlético Madrid have reached a verbal agreement with Mallorca to sign 19-year-old Marc Domenech on a loan deal that includes an option to buy. The transfer is pending final formalities and a medical examination in Madrid.
The teenager will undergo medical tests in the capital before the move can be announced officially. While the club-to-club agreement is already in place, these remaining administrative steps must be completed to finalise the arrangement and register the player.
Loan structure and future terms
Domenech is set to join the Madrid side initially on a season-long loan. The agreement grants Atlético an option to convert the temporary transfer into a permanent move at the end of the campaign, though specific financial figures have not been disclosed.
This structure offers flexibility to both parties. Atlético can assess the teenager’s development and suitability for their system before committing significant resources. For Domenech, the arrangement provides an opportunity to prove himself at one of Spain’s elite clubs while retaining the security of his parent club connection should the permanent transfer not materialise.
Career progression and next steps
The 19-year-old spent the previous campaign on loan at Ceuta, where he made eight appearances and scored once. These outings have evidently convinced Atlético that he possesses the potential to step up to a more demanding environment.
The proposed move comes as Atlético continue to adjust their squad following the opening of the league season. The club began their campaign with a victory over Málaga, and the potential addition of Domenech suggests ongoing efforts to strengthen depth across the roster with emerging talent.
Should the medical examination proceed without issue and the final paperwork be signed, Domenech will link up with his new teammates in the coming days. The youngster faces the immediate challenge of adapting to a new setup and competing for opportunities in a competitive environment.
Mallorca retain the player’s registration for now, with the arrangement allowing their prospect to gain experience at a higher level. Should the option be exercised, the Balearic club would receive a transfer fee and lose the player permanently; if not, he would return to them after the loan spell.
