According to the Ass, Atletico Madrid seems to have been in a stagnant state in the transfer market after Correa and Riquelme left the team one after another.
Currently, the team has several players for sale in the transfer market, but progress is slow. DePaul seems to be about to join Miami International, but the transfer situation for other players such as Lemar and Saul is more complicated.
The situation in Lemar and Saul is particularly difficult, with Lemar not recovering since his serious injury in September 2023 and no potential buyers. The problem with Saul is that he has high salaries and few clubs are willing to bear them. For Atletico Madrid football director Bucero, these two players are hot potatoes.
In addition, there are some players who can bring income to Atletico Madrid. First is DePaul, whose contract with Atletico Madrid will expire in 2026. The club hopes to sell it this summer, and Miami International is trying to convince him to be Messi's teammate.
The transfer fee is expected to be about 15 million euros, which is lower than Atletico Madrid's expectations, but because De Paul can negotiate freely in January next year, Atletico Madrid is at a disadvantage in the negotiations. Molina and Lino also attracted interest from Italy and England, and although they were not in Simeone's plan, they would not let go easily.
Gimenez has received a offer from the Saudi league, but he has no intention of leaving Atletico Madrid at present. Although Garland has performed poorly in some matches, his overall performance in La Liga is satisfying. If you receive a significant offer, Atletico Madrid will consider selling him. Gallagher is also one of Atletico Madrid's important players, but given his high value in the transfer market, if a Premier League club makes a offer of more than 40 million euros, Atletico Madrid will also seriously consider it.
Therefore, Atletico Madrid is waiting for the phone to ring and a considerable transfer income will help them complete the remaining signing plan. Vitsel, Aspiricueta and Renildo obviously won't bring in revenue, while Correa and Riquelme each brought about about 8 million euros, while Aghova brought in 12 million euros by selling 35% ownership. However, the transfer market has temporarily stagnated and only DePaul may accelerate its departure.
