Marca: C-Romero is Atletico Madrid s top central defender target, and it is necessary to introduce a replacement for Correa this summer

July 6th According to the Spanish media "Marca", Christian Romero is Atletico's top central defender target and needs to introduce a replacement for Correa this summer.

Johnny Cardoso will become Atletico's third wish. After Rugeri and Baenna, it was Cardoso's turn, and his transfer agreement was finally finalized a few hours after being eliminated at the Atletico Madrid Club World Cup. When Western media took the lead in revealing that the two sides had reached an agreement on a five-year contract, Atletico Madrid was still in Los Angeles.

Cardoso will become the defensive midfielder that Atletico Madrid has longed for for many years and is also a key puzzle for the midfield. In order to play in this midfielder, both Cork and Barrios have made guest appearances. Therefore, Atletico Madrid hopes that Cardoso will be integrated into the team from day one, which is very different from the remaining signing operations.

Christian Romero is Atletico Madrid's number one goal in the central defender position. The difficulty lies in: it is not easy to poach a player from a Premier League club that has always had a stronger financial resources than La Liga teams.

What's more troublesome is that they need to convince Tottenham, one of the hardest clubs to deal with. Modric, Bale or Kane's transfer soap opera has long been history and has had to put pressure to switch from the Premier League to Real Madrid and Bayern.

Therefore, the core of the action plan is to remain calm and hope that the players' wishes will prevail. This will also help reduce the asking price for Romero 70 million euros, which Atletico Madrid will not pay. Whether the price can be lowered by millions of euros will be decisive for the final signing of the central defender.

Similarly, in order to leave funds to sign Correa's replacement, Correa will join the Mexican Tigers, leaving a vacancy for the fourth striker. Atletico Madrid has admitted that many offers have been sent to fill Correa's position and that they are still studying different player types.

Lukeman is one of the candidates. Atletico Madrid asked Atlanta about the situation, but Atlanta asked for a price of 60 million euros. During the signing of Rugery, Lukeman was once again on the shortlist, but the deal was not completed with such an amount. In any case, signing players who replace Correa need to be calm and calm.

If more players leave the team, Atletico Madrid may have more signings. Players like Molina, Lino, Lemar, DePaul or Gallagher may not stay on the team if they receive a offer that satisfies them and Atletico Madrid. At that time, the club will launch options to replace them and study the transfer market.
