Atlético de Madrid is experiencing a moment of uncertainty with one of its most important players. Rodrigo De Paul, a key piece in Diego Simeone's scheme, could be facing his last months at the red-and-white club. Although the management is working on his renewal, an unexpected offer could change the course of his future.
The Argentine midfielder, whose contract ends in 2026, has reached his best form since arriving at the Madrid team. His performance this season has convinced both the coaching staff and the fans, who consider him an indispensable footballer in the midfield. Therefore, the sports management has already started talks to extend his contract and shield him from possible offers.

However, an old acquaintance could interfere with Atlético's plans. According to several international media outlets, Inter Miami is preparing an offensive to sign De Paul. The MLS franchise, led by Leo Messi, dreams of adding the Argentine international to its squad and making him one of its stars.
Real Threat from Miami
The Florida team has shown in recent months that it has the financial power to attract figures from European soccer. With Messi as a major reference, the entity has managed to convince players like Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba, and Luis Suárez to join the project. Now, the next target would be Rodrigo De Paul, who maintains a close friendship with the Argentine star.
The American club trusts that the presence of Messi will be a key factor in luring the Atlético midfielder. The possibility of playing in a more relaxed environment, with a less demanding schedule and alongside several compatriots, could make De Paul seriously consider the offer. Additionally, Inter Miami is willing to offer him a lucrative contract that surpasses what he earns in Spain.
De Paul, Between Renewal and the Temptation of the MLS
Despite this, Atlético's stance is clear: they don't want to part with one of their most important pieces. In the coming days, the club's management will intensify negotiations to ensure the Argentine's continuity. The idea is to improve his salary and extend his contract to dispel any doubts about his future.
The final decision will be in the hands of the player himself. At 30 years old, De Paul is at a key moment in his career. At Atlético, he feels important and has gained the support of Diego Simeone, although the possibility of a lucrative contract may make him hesitate. The presence of Leo Messi and Luis Suárez, two friends of the Argentine, is also another significant incentive in favor of an adventure in Miami.
The red-and-white club trusts that the player's desire is to continue in Europe at the highest level. However, the threat from Inter Miami is real and could complicate negotiations. In the coming months, updates are expected, and the future of Rodrigo De Paul is still not settled.
