According to the latest information, Atlético de Madrid is planning to make a significant investment in signings next summer. The red-and-white club wants to repeat the formula from last season, which is yielding great sporting results. Rubén Uría commented yesterday that Diego Pablo Simeone knows that top footballers will arrive and that the club will fight for the best players.
It seems that Cholo Simeone wouldn't mind the arrival of a world-class center forward. Although Alexander Sorloth is contributing a lot to the team, the Argentine coach sees him more as a substitute rather than a starter. Among the names being mentioned, one has been talked about a lot in recent weeks, Darwin Núñez.
Imminent Departure
The Uruguayan forward from Liverpool is not getting all the minutes he would like since the arrival of Arne Slot. Moreover, the Dutch coach recently made statements about him that show their relationship is not the best. "For the second time, I'm not satisfied with his effort, I can't accept that a player doesn't give his maximum."
These words come shortly after Fabrizio Romano announced that Darwin wanted to seek a move in the summer. Several media outlets have placed Atlético de Madrid in the race to acquire him, but he is not a priority target. If they want to make a significant investment in a center forward, the red-and-white club has had another player in their sights for some time.
The Number One Option
Since last summer, Atlético de Madrid has been linked in Portugal with the trending center forward, ViktorGyökeres. The Swedish striker has scored almost 40 goals this season, having been injured in several matches last month. Everything indicates that he will not continue at Sporting de Portugal and several clubs are after him.
The famous Portuguese outlet, Record, commented months ago that Gyökeres was exciting Atlético de Madrid. If the red-and-white club has the opportunity, it is very likely they will make an offer for the Swedish forward. Nevertheless, Darwin Núñez is on the red-and-white agenda, as he was already of interest in the past when he played for Benfica.
