Atlético de Madrid is already preparing its summer transfer window, and for this, the Colchoneros have inscribed in capital letters the name of Álex Baena on their list of priorities for this summer, according to AS. The Villarreal midfielder is perceived as an important potential reinforcement, due to his quality and his long -term potential. His versatility and tactical intelligence also make him a player deemed adapted to the Diego Simeone system. As for the amount necessary to dislodge it, a source close to the club said: ” The amount of the transfer should exceed 50 million euros “, While the amount of its release clause amounts to 60 million euros.
Baena's visit to Civitas Metropolitano last January reinforced the interest of Madrid leaders, convinced that he could bring a solution to their midfielder. However, competition from English clubs and other European contenders could complicate the operation. If Atlético wishes to finalize the transfer, he will have to act quickly and be convincing to attract Spanish to his nets.
