Atlético Eyes Kovacic to Bolster Midfield
Atlético de Madrid is gearing up for an active summer in the transfer market, with the priority objective of strengthening the midfield. Following the successful signing of Julián Álvarez from Manchester City, the club could repeat the move and try to acquire another player from the English team: Mateo Kovacic.
According to reports from England, the Croatian player could be one of those leaving Manchester City in the next transfer window. Faced with this situation, Atlético de Madrid has reportedly shown a strong interest in the player, even having already made initial contacts.
The club sees Kovacic as an ideal addition to the midfield, bringing experience and quality to the team. The player would also welcome the opportunity to return to LaLiga and relaunch his career in the Spanish capital.
Although a figure close to 30 million euros is mentioned, Atlético would seek to negotiate a price more in line with the player’s age and contractual situation. Fenerbahce has also joined the race, but Kovacic would prioritize staying in one of the major European leagues. Atlético fans hope that the club can finalize this signing and thus strengthen the team for the upcoming season.
