Nelson Semedo could be the right back Atletico Madrid are looking for. Juanfran recently left the club as a legend after performing fantastically for various years. Semedo, whose Barca future is not guaranteed, could be his substitute.
The Portuguese full back is one of the Barca players whose future is unclear. Valverde showed faith in him since his arrival, but this season he has shown weaknesses on key days for the team. The Copa del Rey final was an example.
'Cadena SER' announced that Atletico could decide to go for him and even include him in a possible deal with Griezmann. If that is the case, logically the price for the Frenchman would be less although in recent days that possiblity has reduced.
It is not clear where the French striker will end up. Everything seemed to indicate that he would go to Barcelona, but it is not at all clear that the Barca dressing room would welcome him.
However it may be, Semedo is not comfortable at Barca and he himself has apparently considered the option of leaving. Adapted to Spanish football, the Portuguese could be the new full back that Simeone is looking for.
