Clément Lenglet will become the new reinforcement for Atlético de Madrid, completing the squad for the 2024-2025 season. The French center-back, coming from FC Barcelona, will arrive on loan to fill the vacancy in the Rojiblanco defense following Mario Hermoso's departure, as reported by AS newspaper. This signing meets Diego Simeone's need to strengthen the defense with a left-footed center-back, a key position in his tactical scheme.

However, Lenglet's arrival will not materialize until Atlético frees up space in its squad and, above all, in its wage bill. To comply with LaLiga's requirements, the Madrid club must offload three players: Samu Omorodion, Mouriño, and one more, which could be Thomas Lemar or Arthur Vermeeren. This adjustment is essential to meet financial rules and enable the French defender's incorporation.

Lenglet, the cheapest option

Atlético's sports management had considered other options to reinforce its defense, such as Piero Hincapié from Bayer Leverkusen and David Hancko from Feyenoord. However, the high transfer costs and salaries associated with these players made their signings unfeasible, especially after a summer in which the club has invested close to 200 million euros in reinforcements.

Despite generating income from some departures, the new signings, like Robin Le Normand, Sorloth, Julián Álvarez, and Conor Gallagher, also entail considerable expenditure in terms of wages.
