Simeone looking for another left-back for Atletico
Diego Simeone could ask to the Atletico Madrid board for another left-back despite having Sergio Reguilon now. There are only Reinildo Mandava and the former Real Madrid player in that position.
Diego Simeone will take the World Cup break to try to get Atletico Madrid to improve their game and their place in La Liga. They were eliminated from the Champions League and Europa League. For that reason, the Argentine manager was heavily criticised.
Simeone will be looking for his side to have more alternatives to fight with their opponents. With a lot of offensive power, the coach will return to his origins: attacking more on the wings.
From his words after the 1-0 defeat against Mallorca, it is clear that Simeone will ask the board for another more attacking left-back when the transfer window reopens: "The arrival of Reguilon was good for us. Hopefully he can give us a more attacking full-back, because Reinildo has other characteristics."
The player, who arrived on loan from Tottenham, has only just made his debut due to injury. As a result, Simeone will look for another full-back because he has no back-up if he gets injured again.
