Soulé Reveals Atlético's Interest: Italian Decision Without Hesitation
Matías Soulé, a young and talented Argentine winger currently playing for Roma, has revealed Atlético de Madrid’s interest in acquiring his services in the past. When Soulé, at only 19 years old, stood out in the youth ranks of Vélez Sarsfield, several European clubs showed interest in his potential, including the Colchoneros.
However, the player has confessed that Atlético’s proposal was not seriously considered, as his priority was to make the leap to Italian football. Juventus anticipated and closed his signing, thus frustrating the aspirations of the Madrid club.
Later, Soulé was transferred to Roma for a significant amount. In a recent interview, the Argentine attacker recalled Atlético’s interest, but reaffirmed his conviction to choose Italy. Recently, Soulé was a protagonist in the Roman derby, scoring an important goal for his team. The player described the experience as ‘beautiful and special.’ He also revealed advice received from his coach, highlighting the importance of simplicity in his game to reach his full potential.
