Álex Baena, one of Villarreal's greatest assets, has caught the attention of Atlético de Madrid as one of the most desired names for the upcoming season. The talented midfielder, who has become a key player in the Yellow Submarine's lineup, will not be leaving in the winter transfer market, as Villarreal considers it essential to keep their star for the remainder of the campaign. However, his departure in the summer could be on the table if the Atleti can make a convincing offer.

Álex Baena, Atlético de Madrid's Target

Baena's ability to lead the midfield and his skill in the final third have made him an essential player for Villarreal. At just 23 years old, the midfielder stands out not only for his technical quality but also for his maturity in crucial moments. Atlético, aware of the need to strengthen their squad with standout players, sees him as an ideal option to add creativity and dynamism to Simeone's team.

Nevertheless, Villarreal is not willing to let him go without a fight. His release clause and the Yellow Submarine's firm stance mean that any operation would involve a significant financial outlay. On the other hand, Baena might be tempted by the sporting leap that joining a club competing for national and international titles every season would represent, fueling speculations about his long-term future.

Various reports indicate that Atlético de Madrid is already working on preparing an offer that will convince both the player and Villarreal next summer. Negotiations are expected to be intense, as Baena represents a long-term project that would fit perfectly into the rojiblanco's setup, being a luxury reinforcement for the midfield.
