The Atletico Madrid He needs to reinforce his squad for the second part of the season, specifically the position of right winger due to the departure of Kieran Trippier to Newcastle United a few days ago. Diego Pablo Simeone himself confirmed that the club is working on a incorporation for said demarcation because Sime Vrsaljko is not at the level to be a starter in a club that is looking to transcend in the UEFA Champions League and enter the first four positions of the table in La Liga.
The main objective is Daniel Wass, who can play both right back/winger and central midfielder, but the latest information confirms that Valencia CF is not interested in letting him out at this time, so it seems that the operation is getting more and more complicated. The Dane informed the board that he wants to leave and that they facilitate the operation. It is not yet known what will happen.
Plan B and C of Atlético in case Wass does not arrive
Given the uncertainty, Atlético de Madrid is handling several options to be able to reinforce its right wing for the remainder of the season and has two proper names in its sights to be able to start a new negotiation in case Daniel Wass’ operation ends up falling for full. The two options they handle are the following:
-Nahitan Nandez: The Uruguayan, who can also play as a central midfielder and right winger/winger, does not want to continue at Cagliari and feels that the opportunity to play for Atlético is interesting. He is one of the names that the club is testing, but there is still no rapprochement.
–Mattia De Sciglio: The Italian ends his contract with Juventus in the summer market, making him an interesting option for both sides. He is not at a very high level, but his versatility convinced Simeone.
