After Nahuel Molina, Rodrigo De Paul and Angel Correa, Atlético de Madrid could soon have a fourth Argentine world champion in its squad. According to information from Mundo Deportivothe Madrid club would target Thiago Almada, Atlanta United player.

The publication specifies that the operation could be completed in the coming hours around a transfer of 30 million euros. An attacking midfielder by training but capable of playing across the entire attacking front, Almada has been scoring goals in MLS in recent months. A little over a year ago, OM made it one of its priority targets, in vain. Mundo Deportivo adds that the 22-year-old would replace Correa, who is leaving for Al-Ittihad.
