Atletico Madrid shopping spree. |
Nine new signings including Johnny Cardoso, Matteo Ruggeri, Marc Pubill, Santiago Mourino, Juan Musso, Clement Lenglet, Alex Baena, Thiago Almada and David Hancko show the capital team's ambition to compete on equal terms with Real Madrid and Barcelona.
However, according to Fichajes , coach Diego Simeone still wants to add two more positions. Firstly, after the departure of Rodrigo de Paul and the unstable physical condition of Pablo Torre, Atletico's midfield is lacking a midfielder who can control the tempo of the match and possess the tactical vision to control the game at key moments.
While Thiago Almada is a potential addition, he will need time to adapt to the rigors of La Liga. A creative midfielder with experience in Europe would be a key factor in helping Atletico's midfield stay strong in the long run.
Second, Atletico are lacking an attacking player who can create breakthroughs from the flanks. The performances of Angel Correa and Samuel Lino have not satisfied coach Simeone. The "Rojiblancos" want a true winger with natural dribbling skills, who can accelerate, pass people and break down tight defenses.
Ademola Lookman was once considered a top target, but the emergence of Inter Milan in the race has put Atletico in a major bind in the deal.
The summer transfer window is still open and Atletico have not given up. The priorities have been clearly defined and the team is working to find the best options both in terms of skills and finances.
