Atletico eyes Ruggeri for left-back position

The Club World Cup is now history for Atletico. The Madrid side is already back in Spain, and the sporting department is preparing for the start of a new season, where, among many other things, signings are expected.

Without a doubt, one of the most weakened positions and one that generates the most talk is the left-back position. Several names have been mentioned for this position, but there is a new one joining the list, and this seems to be the most likely: Matteo Ruggeri.

According to 'Marca', the Atalanta player will become a new player for the 'Rojiblancos'. Despite having a contract until 2028 with the Bergamo team, the Italian will sign until 2030, that is, for 5 seasons. In addition, the operation will close for around 20 million euros.

Ruggeri stands out for his aerial game and would be a great addition to improve both the offensive and defensive game of the team. He has just played in the U21 European Championship and has played 38 matches this season, in which he has provided up to 3 assists.
