Colchonero Target: Romero in Sight

Atlético de Madrid has a clear goal to strengthen their defense: Cristian Romero. The Colchonero club, known for its strong Argentine connection, seeks to add another world champion to its ranks.

Julián Álvarez, Atlético’s forward, has publicly expressed his desire for Romero, currently at Tottenham Hotspur, to join the team. In statements to a sports outlet, Álvarez highlighted Romero’s qualities, describing him as one of the best centre-backs in the world and emphasizing his importance as a teammate in the Argentine national team.

The presence of a consolidated group of Argentines at Atlético could be a key factor in facilitating Romero’s adaptation to the club. Diego Simeone, Atlético’s coach, is a great admirer of Romero and considers his incorporation a priority for the next season.

Although the player would be willing to move to Madrid, negotiations with Tottenham could be complex. It is estimated that Atlético would be willing to invest between 40 and 50 million euros, although the English club could demand a higher figure. The Colchonero management is confident in reaching a favorable agreement to add Romero to its squad and further strengthen its defense.

Antony: A 'Rojiblanco' Dream on the Horizon?

Atlético de Madrid, a consolidated sports project under the baton of Diego Pablo Simeone, remains an attractive destination for many players. The team competes at the highest level and never fails to make its Champions League appearance, which generates interest among players from all over the world.

On this occasion, the name that resonates strongly is that of Brazilian winger Antony Dos Santos. According to the ‘Daily Mirror’, the Manchester United player, loaned to Betis, has aroused the interest of the ‘Rojiblanco’ club thanks to his outstanding performances.

During the current season, Antony has scored eight goals and provided four assists, including a great goal against Espanyol and a great performance in the Conference League semi-final.

Manchester United values Antony at more than 50 million euros, a figure that could represent the main obstacle to his arrival at the Metropolitano. This price could be beyond Atlético’s reach, especially considering that the winger position is not an absolute priority in the planning for next summer.

Interestingly, Antony already had an opportunity at Atlético de Madrid in 2012, although at that time he failed to pass the test. Now, years later, the club is once again considering his incorporation, demonstrating that talent always finds a second chance.

Atlético de Madrid fans are not giving up in their fight against UEFA after the controversial refereeing decision in the Champions League that resulted in the team’s elimination.

The Unión Internacional de Peñas, Senado, Los 50, and Señales de Humo, united in this cause, continue their legal offensive and have taken another step in their strategy. These associations have formally requested Atlético de Madrid to ask UEFA to hand over the original video that was used to make the decision they consider unfair.

The Unión Internacional de Peñas has launched a ‘crowdfunding’ campaign through the sale of t-shirts with the slogan ‘Join the rojiblanca crusade. Against injustice, against #UEFAGate. For Atleti.’ The profits from this initiative will be used to cover the legal expenses of the battle against UEFA.

Mouriño: A Stellar Return to Atlético?

Atlético de Madrid is eyeing the return of Santiago Mouriño after his outstanding season at Deportivo Alavés. The young Uruguayan, who previously belonged to the Colchoneros, made a positive impression in the match against Atlético at Mendizorroza, demonstrating his quality with high passing accuracy, effective clearances, and a notable presence on the field.

Mouriño has established himself as an undisputed starter at Alavés, playing a total of 22 LaLiga matches under the technical direction of Coudet. His performance has not gone unnoticed at the Metropolitano, where the Rojiblanca management is seriously considering exercising the repurchase option in the summer.

This would involve a disbursement of three million euros, one more than what Atlético received for his initial transfer. The intention is for Mouriño to join the preseason under the command of Diego Simeone, who has also expressed his satisfaction with the defender’s progress.

Depending on market movements, it will be decided whether Mouriño stays in the squad or whether a transfer for a higher sum is evaluated, without ruling out the possibility of including him in a strategic operation. Atlético is confident in Mouriño’s potential to strengthen their defense and bring solidity to the team.
