The Atlético de Madrid has set its sights on Milan Skriniar, center-back of PSG, as one of the key reinforcements for the upcoming season. Faced with the likely departures of Axel Witsel and César Azpilicueta at the end of their contracts in June 2025, and with Clément Lenglet's loan ending without guarantees of continuity, the colchonero club is preparing to renovate its defensive line.

Skriniar, 28, has excelled both at PSG and in the Slovakian national team, making him an attractive target for several European teams. According to sources close to the market, the Parisian club would be willing to negotiate his departure for a figure close to 25 million euros, reducing the initial price from 35 million. This cost, along with Atlético's recent earnings from the sale of Arthur Vermeeren, could facilitate the player's signing.

Atlético de Madrid needs a new center-back

Diego Simeone is looking for a solid profile to complement Robin Le Normand, signed in the summer of 2024, and provide stability in a defense that has been crucial for the team's aspirations in LaLiga and European competitions. Skriniar, known for his physical strength and elite experience, fits perfectly into the plans of the Argentine coach.

Atlético's interest also reflects its need to plan for the long term, considering that the renewal of its defense will be vital to maintaining the competitive level. Although they won't be the only club vying for Skriniar, the colchoneros trust in their attractive sports project to convince the player and close a deal that could be decisive in the upcoming season.
