Atletico Madrid promote the recruitment of Darwin Nunez
Atletico Madrid are ramping up their transfer spending after a trophyless season, forcing coach Diego Simeone to look for new additions to his 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 values 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 strength.
Atletico will have to compete with teams in Saudi Arabia, who are ready to roll out the red carpet for Darwin. However, Atletico's advantage lies in the fact that Nunez still prioritizes playing in Europe and continues to compete in the prestigious Champions League arena.
If successful in this deal, Atletico Madrid will have a strong striker, suitable for the ambition of reviving the team under Diego Simeone.
