The constant injuries of the Uruguayan drive the coaching staff crazy
The losses to Leverkusen Y real Madrid they leave a really hard stoppage of selections for the Atletico Madrid. The repeated decline of Jose Maria Gimenez greatly disrupts the defensive system of a Simeone who is losing patience. The Argentine considers a possible reinforcement in the center of the defense.
However, it is not an easy task, because with the transfer market closed, all that remains is to go to the players without a team. In this sense there are still very interesting players in the market, highlighting two power stations above the rest. But they do not seem to be targets of the Atletico Madrid.
Giménez’s injuries make Simeone nervous
As was evidenced yesterday, Atlético de Madrid’s big problems are in defence. Witsel has had to be converted to central defender, Felipe and Savic are not at the level they used to be, Giménez has physical problems and Reinildo seems to be the only one who works in the rojiblanco team.
That is why many have called for an effort to reinforce the defense with Denayer or Zagadou, the two most interesting central defenders on the market. But from what we have been able to learn, none of them are of interest to the sports management, as there are many doubts as to whether they would really improve the existing level.
Cholo’s request to Atlético
However, in the free agent market there is still a footballer who has a long career in the Santander League. A footballer who has been undervalued in recent years, in which he has offered an extraordinary level in the ranks of Deportivo Alavés. And that footballer is none other than Laguardia.
At 32 years old, after not reaching an agreement to extend his contract with the Babazorro club, Laguardia is without a team. Many have knocked on his door, but for the moment he has not reached an agreement. Now he could join Atlético de Madrid, because Simeone is convinced that he could provide good performance in the axis of defense, raising the current level of the team.
