Worst nightmare: Attacking Soldier set for a massive transfer to Atletico….
Since most of Atletico Madrid’s roster is up for grabs this summer, Los Rojiblancos will need to have choices available to replace the majority of their current roster. The front line is one of the positions with the least amount of assurance.
While Memphis Depay is out of contract, Angel Correa was open to a move in January, and they will examine offers for Alvaro Morata—who could again be of interest to Juventus this summer—Antoine Griezmann is scheduled to sign a new agreement with Atletico in the coming months.
🚨 BREAKING: There is satisfaction in the offices of Atlético de Madrid due to the figures generated this season, but they still need to qualify for next year’s UCL.
The Club World Cup has earned them €50m, and the Champions League around €75m, excluding TV distribution, which…
One of their options to come in is Stuttgart forward Serhou Guirassy. The 28-year-old Guinean forward has been a revelation this season, scoring 27 goals in 25 games this season. He has also rejected fresh contract offers from Stuttgart thus far, and as such, his release clause remains at €17.5m, which is is more than affordable for Europe’s top clubs.
Perhaps Atletico’s biggest obstacle will that: Milan, Bayern Munich and Manchester United have all taken a keen interest in Guirassy this season, as per Diario AS .
Alaves loanee Samu Omorodion could return to the club in the summer, but Guirassy on paper could lead the line well and potentially help Atletico get slightly younger if they move on Morata and Memphis. The one fear of signing Guirassy is that prior to this season, he has only once exceeded 11 league goals in a season, and Los Rojiblancos will not want to downgrade on Morata.
