Atlético de Madrid is in full search for a central midfielder who can provide balance and stability in the center of the field. Diego Simeone wants to reinforce a key area for his tactical scheme, and the club's sporting direction has already identified five players who fit perfectly into the profile desired by the Argentine coach.
Nicolò Barella:
Among the most prominent names is Nicolò Barella, a key player at Inter Milan. The Italian, known for his ability to cover the entire field and his skill in breaking lines, would be a luxury reinforcement. However, his high price could be an obstacle, as Inter would not be willing to let him go for less than 70 million euros.
Alexis Mac Allister:
Another candidate is Alexis Mac Allister, a midfielder from Liverpool and a World Cup champion with Argentina. His vision of the game, precision in passes, and versatility make him an attractive option, although his recent arrival at the English club makes his signing complex.
Tijjani Reijnders:
From Italy, Tijjani Reijnders, a player at AC Milan, is also on the Rojiblancos' radar. His performance in Serie A has caught attention for his combination of creativity and defensive ability, qualities that Simeone values especially.
Fabián Ruiz:
Atlético also keeps an eye on Fabián Ruiz, currently at Paris Saint-Germain. His experience in LaLiga and his ability to manage game tempo position him as a more affordable alternative.
Javi Guerra:
Finally, Javi Guerra, a young promise from Valencia, emerges as the future option. His talent and potential make him a long-term bet, ideal for building a solid midfield.
