Atlético de Madrid is facing the final stretch of the transfer market with the mindset set on definitively closing its squad by strengthening its midfield. The midfield line seems to be considered one of the pending subjects by the board and the staff, something that is driven by the fact that Atlético are interested in signing more midfielders. With only two days to go until the definitive conclusion of the market, Atlético is speeding up what it wants to be its last operations in a summer full of movements in the club.
In addition to the arrival of Conor Gallagher to reinforce Atlético 's midfield, the red-and-whites seem to be working on signing other new midfielders for their squad. One of those who has been strongly linked for a few days is Gabri Veiga , formerly of Celta and currently playing in the Saudi league. The Spanish midfielder has a curious thing in his contract that would make it much easier for him to join an Atlético interested in the young footballer.
The clause that brings Gabri Veiga closer to Atlético de Madrid
The Al-Ahli midfielder has a clause that grants him a loan to the old continent if a team playing in the Champions League asks for him. In the case of Atlético de Madrid , the fact that they are a Champions team means that the player can join the colchoneros without even having to negotiate with the Arabs. That is why Veiga could end up at Atlético if that is really his wish and train under the orders of Cholo Simeone during this next season.
The interest of Atlético de Madrid has been going on for some time, with Veiga being one of the club's and Simeone's own ambitions, as he is very fond of the player. Veiga would arrive to return to Saudi Arabia the following year, this being an identical operation to that of other signings such as Clement Lenglet or Juan Musso , who will also return next season. With fierce and high competition in the midfield of Atlético de Madrid , Veiga is already considering whether or not to accept the request of the red-and-whites to join them this season.
A role of wardrobe background
And the fact is that the midfield managed by Diego Pablo Simeone is as extensive as it is talented, facts that would relegate the young Spaniard to a less prominent role. With footballers of the caliber of Koke , Rodrigo de Paul , Pablo Barrios or the recently incorporated Conor Gallagher in the team, Veiga would arrive at Atlético to be an occasional footballer. If he ends up joining Atlético , Veiga would work hard to win over Simeone and try to find his opportunity to shine during the 24/25 season.
A high quality loan
No one doubts the incredible talent of Gabri Veiga , least of all those Spanish football fans who were lucky enough to see him play in our domestic competition recently. Veiga was one of the greatest talents in LaLiga during his time in Vigo and his departure caused quite a stir and controversy among the Spanish fans who saw him leave. While waiting to see if the Galician returns to our country, both Atlético and the player hope to reach an agreement.
