After failing at the Club World Cup, Atletico head coach Diego Simeone has decided to initiate major changes. The Argentine specialist, who leads the Madrid team, explained this tournament’s lack of success by pointing to the squad not being strengthened with new players.
Simeone has demanded that management seriously reinforce the team. During the summer transfer window, Atletico plans to buy at least four high-level players. According to local and international sources, the club is ready to spend at least 160 million euros for these purposes.
As main transfer targets, the coach has selected a number of young and talented footballers. Among them are Villarreal captain and Spanish national team player Alex Baena (costing 50 million euros), Argentine youth team defender Rodrigo Ruggieri (20 million euros), and US national team central midfielder Johnny Cardoso (30 million euros).
Additionally, Tottenham’s central defender Cristian Romero has also been added to the transfer targets. Atletico is reportedly prepared to allocate 60 million euros for this player.
Among fans, this summer’s moves by club management have sparked much interest and discussion. Simeone has also repeatedly emphasized in previous seasons that deepening the squad is necessary for achieving top results.
The summer transfers may open a new page for Madrid, with Simeone expected to use every opportunity to return Atletico among the strongest. This approach demonstrates that competition and ambitions in European football are increasing.
In the coming weeks, even more news about Atletico’s new signings and completed transfers is expected. Football fans are preparing for the new season with high hopes and anticipation. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
