According to sources close to the club, Montenegrin defender Stefan Savic could spend his final days at Atlético de Madrid. This season, the central defender has expressed his desire to play a more important role in the team, but his performances on the field have not lived up to expectations. His recent expulsion against Getafe, which cost Atlético de Madrid valuable points, has increased rumors of his possible exit in the next transfer market in January.
Savic has been a valuable member of the Colchonero team since his arrival from Fiorentina in 2015. During his time in Madrid, he was instrumental in Atlético’s success, contributing to their La Liga victory and reaching the Champions League final on several occasions. However, he suffered a decline in his involvement this season and when he was on the field, his performance did not live up to his potential.
The red card he saw in the last game against Getafe was the last straw. As a result of his sending off, Atlético were at a numerical disadvantage and ended up with a 1-1 draw. This situation has led to the press and fans questioning his continuity in the team.
It has always been important to Cholo
Manager Diego Simeone was patient with Savic, but his lack of consistency on the pitch was a concern. The club’s board could consider a sale in the next transfer market to make room for new talent and rejuvenate the squad.
