Atlético de Madrid need to finalise their squad as soon as possible, as they must focus solely on the game. The draw against RCD Espanyol has shown that Diego Pablo Simeone's men need to grow. They need to show their best version again to get more points and not miss out on the top positions.
After a very frustrating match, in which players like Rodrigo de Paul improved, but it was not enough, the time has come. There are only a few days left until the end of the transfer market, so Atlético de Madrid has several tasks. One of the most important, if it comes to that, is to acquire the services of a central midfielder.
The surprising name of Atlético de Madrid to complement De Paul
In recent days, names such as Matheus Nunes have emerged for an Atlético de Madrid that needs more. However, one must be taken into account who stands out above the rest to complement Rodrigo de Paul : Luis Milla . The Getafe player is one of the surprise candidates to reinforce the Atlético de Madrid midfield.
This information, reported by El Chiringuito , indicated that Atlético de Madrid had contacted the player's entourage. Not only that, but the player would be in favour of the possibility of joining the Metropolitano . In addition, it was reported that the club from Madrid would be in contact with Getafe in the next few hours, as has been the case this morning.
The latest news on the Luis Milla case: Atlético de Madrid is pushing for him
As the hours go by, it seems that this most unexpected move is accelerating greatly. As Radio Marca pointed out, Atlético de Madrid have already signed Luis Milla , who will leave Getafe , but only on a permanent transfer given the interests of the Azulones. The midfielder's contract would be for the next three seasons, something most surprising.
On the other hand, Alfredo Duro , a journalist closely linked to Getafe , has taken it upon himself to deny this aspect. As he has pointed out, Luis Milla is still a blue player and has not signed anything with Atlético de Madrid , especially due to their refusal to loan their player. In this way, it could become one of the 'soap operas' of the last phase of the market.
Midfield and helping De Paul, a priority for Atlético de Madrid
Meanwhile, Atlético de Madrid continues to comb the transfer market in search of signing a midfielder. Pending departures such as Javi Galán or Thomas Lemar , the Colchoneros need more. Therefore, they will have to keep an eye on the moves made by Diego Pablo Simeone's men to move forward.
This is one of the main priorities for the club that usually plays its matches at the Metropolitano . They know that this season is one of the most important in their recent history, so they want to move forward. Atlético de Madrid is clear that it needs a squad that is as competitive as possible, so it is working hard.
Diego Pablo Simeone already said it in the press conference prior to the match against RCD Espanyol . It was possible that new players would arrive at an Atlético de Madrid that aspires to continue growing in all competitions. As usual, a new season is a new opportunity and that is how they take it at the Metropolitano .
