Soyuncu expected to join Atletico in July

Atletico Madrid will not be able to sign Caglar Soyuncu in January. The Leicester City centre-back will not sign for the Spanish side in this transfer window. 

According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Simeone's side breach Financial Fair Play with this transfer. Atletico do not have enough salary margin to deal with his signing.

As a result, the defender could sign for them in the summer as he will be a free agent because his current contract with Leicester expires.

The Turkish footballer is hardly getting any playing time this season after being a key player in the English team for the last three seasons. He has only played 252 minutes in three matches for Leicester.
