Atlético looking for CB in Italy

For now, the Atlético defence is well covered. But the summer is coming and there could be exits.

As CBs, Simeone has Felipe, Giménez, Savic and Mario Hermoso. If one of them leaves, Atlético will look for another one in the market.

'CalcioMercato' assures that Merih Demiral would be the one that Diego Simeone wants. The player is currently injured. He's been carrying a ligament injury since January.

The defender hasn't exactly played since the start of the year. Demiral is working to recover as soon as possible... and Atlético are following him...for what might happen.

Simeone, for now, is counting on Felipe no matter what. Since he arrived at the Metropolitano, has become a mainstay in the Atlético defence and the Argentine doesn't want to get rid of him.

Simeone is happy with the rest of the CBs, but they will have the last word. Atlético, meanwhile, will not make any moves.

The club think that Demiral can fit in Simeone's formation. But he isn't a priority.

Furthermore, the health crisis is already doing damage to the economy of clubs. Atlético will only sign if it is necessary.
