Atletico target Perr Schuurs, the 'new De Ligt'

Lucas Hernandez spoke to 'El Partidazo de COPE' about the Champions League clash against Barcelona. When asked about a hypothetical return to Atletico Madrid, the Frenchman made it clear that it could happen.

Today, the Madrid side's objectives are elsewhere and they are looking for more affordable options. For this reason, the last name that has been strongly mentioned is that of Perr Schuurs, from Torino. According to 'Mundo Deportivo', he is one of those centre-backs that Simeone is passionate about.

In addition, the same media outlet said that they have not yet made contact with the Italian side, but that they are keeping a close eye on the Dutch centre-back. The tall defender - 1.91m - is known in the Netherlands as the 'new De Ligt' due to his physical and playing similarities.

Atletico are considering other well-known names such as Inigo Martinez and William Saliba. However, both players have little chance of joining the Spanish club due to the great competition in the market.
