Atletico Madrid have practically closed the deal for Rodrigo de Paul, but it would not be unreasonable for them to bring in another midfielder this summer, especially if Saul finally leaves the club. Gonzalo Villar could be the choice.
Gonzalo Villar has had a remarkable season at Roma, and several clubs have shown interest in him. One of them is Atletico Madrid.
According to 'AS', the young Spanish midfielder is among the possibilities that Atleti are considering to shore up their midfield. Although it is a well-covered position, it is not unreasonable that they could suffer losses in it.
The most likely is Saul, who is facing a move to Liverpool. However, Hector Herrera, a player who arrived for free and is currently held in high regard, could also leave.
Despite the arrival of De Paul, if nothing goes wrong, the signing of such a young player (he turned 23 last March) would be a decided bet for the future of the midfield of the 'Red and Whites'.
