Good news for Diego Simeone and the Colchonera sports management
The return of the midfielder from Alicante Saul Niguez to the Atletico Madrid still not very clear. Diego Simeon He is still hesitant as to whether or not to receive the player, since despite the fact that he was there for several seasons, the Argentine coach has other plans for his squad and more for his core.
The good news is that another suitor for the ilicitano, which means that the cholos You no longer have to think about what to do with the steering wheel. On the other hand, the sports management has a great opportunity to cash in on the midfielder and thus have a sustainable figure to finance the others signings that Simeone has requested.
Saúl could debut in another of the big European leagues if he does not return to Atlético
The last team that has been communicated to the offices of Atlético has been AS Roma, who expressed great interest in the almost discarded Colchonero. The signing has been an explicit request by José Mourinho, who has earned the right to ask for the players he wants since he won the first edition of the Conference League.
For the Madrid team it is great news as long as the Roman club puts a great offer on the table. Let us remember that the player has a base price of 25 kilos and a contract with the red-and-white entity until 2026. Likewise, they expect the proposal to exceed 30 million euros, since the collapse in its price was not due to its level but to his ostracism at Chelsea.
Roma wants to dismantle Atlético’s core with Saúl and Rodrigo de Paul
Most know that the Colchonero club urgently needs a midfielder to cover the space left by Héctor Herrera. However, Simeone believes that Saúl is not the piece he needs, but at the same time he contemplates that Rodrigo de Paul stays since otherwise there would be two signings that Atlético would need in midfield.
On the other hand, Roma wants to take the pair of midfielders with a Colchonero past, since Mourinho believes that their qualities and game characteristics are what he is looking for in his scheme. For the man from Elche, there would be no problem if the offer exceeds 25 kilos, but for the Argentine, things are complicated since Cholo needs it. However, the sports management would let him go for a sum close to 45 million euros.
