This season, Atlético de Madrid may have regrets. Fourth in Liga, the Colchoneros did not shine on the national scene. On the other hand, their journey in the Champions League was particularly frustrating. Eliminating Inter Milan, one of the scarecrows of the competition, in the round of 16, Diego Simeone’s men were unable to get rid of Borussia Dortmund, finalist of this edition, in the quarter-finals. An ultimately regrettable journey when a path to the final was affordable. To do better in the next vintage, the people of Madrid already have some ideas in mind.
And inevitably, a breath of fresh air will be breathed in by a successful summer transfer window. While the Matelassiers are under the threat of an absolutely modest clause for a potential departure of Antoine Griezmann, the latter have already recorded an arrival for their summer. Indeed, according to information from the Portuguese media O Jogo, Rodrigo Gomes is approaching the Madrid club. The 20-year-old right defender will be sold for 15 million while negotiations are progressing very well between Atlético de Madrid and Braga. Loaned to Estoril this season, the right-back has compiled 9 goals and 8 assists in 36 appearances. A hell of a result…
