Marca: Atletico s interest in signing Teo has turned cold, and they will continue to look for new left-back players
According to the "Marca", Atletico's interest in signing Special Olympics has become colder, and they will continue to look for new left-back players.
The possibility of Special O joining Atletico Madrid has weakened in recent hours. The Milan left-back was once the main target of Atletico Madrid's left-wing road, and the player himself expressed his desire to return to his old club. However, although Italian media reported that the two sides had reached an agreement, the reality is that the negotiations are still in their initial stages.
Teo was trained at Atletico Madrid's youth training camp and was taken away by Real Madrid in 2017. Although he was once considered the best candidate for Atletico Madrid left-back, Atletico Madrid's interest has cooled down at present.
The team of sporting directors led by Carlos Bucero is considering other options to ensure the team is strengthened in this position. Last season, Atletico Madrid suffered a lot in important games due to lack of left-back position.
At present, Atletico Madrid is looking for a high-level left-back to improve the team's overall strength in that position. They are looking at non-Luxury players whose contracts will expire in 2026, hoping to sign the right players at a reasonable price. At the same time, Atletico Madrid is also promoting three main signing targets: Baenna, Cardoso and Romero, the latter of which is considered the most difficult to achieve.
It is worth mentioning that a few months ago, Atletico Madrid regarded Alvaro Fernandez as the first choice for left-back, but its 40 million euro transfer fee was dissuading Atletico Madrid. Now, as the cooling of Special O, Atletico will continue to look for a new left-back player.
