Baena to Atleti: Sorloth Connection?
Atlético de Madrid has identified the Spanish international midfielder Álex Baena, alongside Cuti Romero, as one of their top priorities for the upcoming transfer market. The possible incorporation of Baena excites the Colchoneros fans, especially due to the connection he could recreate with Alexander Sorloth.
Both players shared a dressing room at Villarreal last season, where Sorloth was close to achieving the ‘Pichichi’ title thanks, in part, to Baena’s passes. The chemistry between them on the field is undeniable, and their possible reunion at the Metropolitano generates high expectations.
When asked about the rumors linking Baena to Atlético, Sorloth preferred to remain cautious: “Rumors… they are just rumors. I only have one objective now, which is the end of La Liga and the Club World Cup.” Despite not wanting to fuel speculation, it is evident that Sorloth knows Baena’s talent well, and his possible arrival would further enhance the Rojiblancos attack. The fans eagerly await the outcome of this possible signing, which could bring freshness and quality to Atlético’s midfield.
