Canadian forward Jonathan David has joined Atletico Madrid on loan after struggling to make an impact during his first season at Juventus. The move comes following a modest goal tally in Serie A.

Jonathan David has completed a loan move to Atletico Madrid from Juventus, seeking to revitalise his career after a challenging debut season in Italian football. The Canadian striker, who arrived at the Turin club from Lille in 2025, managed just eight goals during his time in Serie A.
Atletico Madrid secured David on a temporary deal as they look to bolster their attacking options. The move represents a fresh opportunity for the forward to demonstrate his goalscoring prowess in La Liga, having failed to meet expectations at Juventus.
David's switch to Spain marks a significant change of scenery for the player, who was previously a consistent performer during his stint with French side Lille. The loan arrangement allows Juventus to recalibrate their squad while providing David with the chance to rediscover his form at a club seeking to strengthen their European credentials.
The 24-year-old's arrival adds depth to Atletico's forward line as Diego Simeone's side prepares for the remainder of the season. Details regarding potential purchase options or conditions of the loan deal have not been disclosed.
