A very important day has arrived for Atlético de Madrid in terms of the transfer market. This evening, all Atlético fans will be able to welcome the new signings that have been announced so far. The latest of them is Conor Gallagher, who landed in the Spanish capital last night and was captured, exclusively, by this media.
For days, the Colchoneros have been announcing today's big event so that the red-and-white stadium is full. For many years, Atlético de Madrid had eliminated open-door presentations, the last one being in 2018. At that time, they took advantage of a winter training session to welcome Diego Costa and Vitolo .
Simeone's reinforcements
It can certainly be said that Atlético de Madrid is experiencing one of the most intense summers since the arrival of the Argentine coach. The first objective of the sports management was to achieve departures that seemed impossible, such as those of Saúl Ñíguez or Mario Hermoso . Afterwards, they have begun to close the signings of signings that have given a leap in quality to the squad.
It was probably the arrival of Julián Álvarez that made the difference for the red-and-white team, forcing them to celebrate in style. The club made the decision to open the Metropolitano so that the fans could welcome the new players. Until now, only three players had been announced in this summer transfer market, but another one has joined.
Conor Gallagher landed in Madrid last night after the sale of Joao Felix to Chelsea for 50 million euros was completed. The English international had already been training with Majadahonda , but was forced to return to London while both teams negotiated. The midfielder will be able to be at the Colchoneros tonight to receive the applause of those who will be his new fans.
Atletico Madrid continues to negotiate
Although four signings will be presented today, there are still some reinforcements to be finalised before the end of the transfer window. At the very least, Simeone needs Atlético de Madrid to bring in a new defender who can start on the left side . In the match against Villarreal, both César Azpilicueta and Robin Le Normand were seen in that position, proving that there is a lack of players.
A final offer is expected for David Hancko , who has admitted that the interest of the red-and-white team had cooled in recent days. The Netherlands have come to consider all the offers that have arrived from Spain as a lack of respect. Even so, the Slovak remains a priority, but there are already alternatives waiting for their chance if necessary.
