Sharing of electrons between the metal atoms
Attraction between the atomic unclei and cloud of electrons

The positive ions and delocalized electrons are strongly attracted to each other, forming a metallic bond. Metallic bonding occurs when positively charged metal ions are attracted to delocalized electrons.
