Argentine sensation Thiago Almada, 22, has taken the Premier League giants by storm. Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Newcastle United are vying for his services in the upcoming transfer window.
Almada, a native of Atlanta United, has shined in Major League Soccer, appearing in 66 games and contributing 43 goals since his arrival in 2022. His breakout 2023 season with 13 goals and 16 assists in 35 games has increased his status on the European radar.
Thiago Almada is aiming to make the jump to a European team
Although the talented midfielder has a contract with Atalanta until 2025, he has expressed his desire to make the move to Europe, preferring the Premier League or La Liga to continue his career. This request has sparked great interest from several clubs.
Manchester United sees Almada as a valuable addition to strengthen their attacking front. Chelsea, on the other hand, who are known for investing in promising young players, see the Argentine as the perfect addition to their long-term project. Newcastle United are in the process of building a competitive team and believe Almada can make a significant contribution to their goals.
At Liverpool, where renewing the midfield is a priority for Jürgen Klopp, Almada presents himself as an attractive option in both the short and long term. The Anfield team is looking for an attacking midfielder and the Argentine would suit the team’s style of play.
With a contract running until 2025, Atalanta could face a tough battle to keep Almada. The young Argentine talent has become one of the most sought-after names in the European market and his next destination could be set in the upcoming transfer window, where the lure of the Premier League could prove decisive in his choice.
