Girona and Atletico negotiating Arnau Martinez transfer for next season

Atletico Madrid are not only looking ahead to the end of the January transfer window, in which there may be some departures and arrivals, but also to next season, the 2023-24 season.

One of the players most fancied to join the Metropolitano side is Arnau Martinez. The Girona player is also on Barcelona's agenda, so it will be a titanic struggle to convince the player.

'Mundo Deportivo' explained that the 'Colchoneros' are already negotiating with Girona for the transfer of the young player, who at 19 years of age is establishing himself in La Liga.

Quique Carcel, sporting director of the Girona club, went to Madrid a couple of weeks ago to talk to Atletico Madrid officials about the player.

The termination clause for Arnau Martinez is 20 million euros. In addition, Atletico have kept a right of first refusal. If the offer from another team is higher than the 'Colchoneros' offer, the Madrid side will be able to match it.

It is worth remembering that Atletico Madrid only have Nahuel Molina in the squad, and that it is Marcos Llorente who plays at full-back or right-back on occasions.
