Atletico Madrid promote the recruitment of Darwin Nunez
Atletico Madrid are accelerating in the transfer market after a trophyless season, forcing coach Diego Simeone to look for new additions to the attack.
According to Todo Fichajes, the Argentine tactician and Atletico's sporting department have agreed on a plan to sign Darwin Nunez from Liverpool. Although the Uruguayan striker's form at Anfield has not met expectations, Simeone still appreciates his dynamism, speed and ability to create breakthroughs - factors that suit the fast counter-attacking style he has built.
In the context that Antoine Griezmann is likely to leave Atletico, adding a striker like Darwin Nunez is considered a necessary step to maintain attacking power.
Atletico will have to compete with teams in Saudi Arabia, which are ready to roll out the red carpet for Darwin. However, Atletico's advantage lies in Nunez still prioritizing playing in Europe and continuing to fight in the prestigious Champions League arena.
If successful in this deal, Atletico Madrid will have a combative striker, suitable for the ambition of reviving the team under Diego Simeone.
