Atlético de Madrid, in search of solutions to strengthen its defensive line, has set its sights on Paraguayan Omar Alderete for the upcoming winter transfer window. Defense has been one of the areas of major concern for Diego Pablo Simeone, particularly in the Champions League, where the team has conceded a significant number of goals in few matches. 

During the last summer transfer window, Atleti aimed to bring in two center-backs, but only managed to seal the signing of Robin Le Normand and the loan deal of Clément Lenglet from Barcelona. However, Lenglet has not had the expected impact on the team, keeping the red-and-white defense vulnerable and prompting Simeone to look for new alternatives to solidify the team at the back.

Alderete, a new option for Atlético's defense

The name of Alderete, currently playing for Getafe, has reemerged in the list of possible signings. At 27 years old, the defender has experience in the Spanish league and has drawn interest from other clubs like Brazil's Cruzeiro. However, Atlético de Madrid could outshine this competition if they decide to intensify their interest in the center-back in January.

In order to restore defensive balance in the second half of the season, Alderete's signing could provide the solidity that the Madrid club greatly needs, especially in crucial competitions like the Champions League. Therefore, Atlético is evaluating each option to strengthen its ranks and ensure the necessary support that the defense requires to aim for significant success this season.
