Zapping Our Mondial Top 10: Most lucrative jersey sponsorship deals
Atlético Madrid’s number one goal in the summer transfer market is to recruit a center-forward. This is what the Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo tells us, explaining that, of course, the Colchoneros also have as offensive players – other than Luis Suarez – Angel Correa, Joao Félix, Yannick Ferreira Carrasco or Marcos Llorente … but it is about more creators or dribblers than pure finishers like the Uruguayan. All while keeping in mind that Luis Suarez is already 34 years old and that he has played 38 games this season, or nearly 3,000 minutes of play. A huge participation in a game advocated by Diego Simeone which requires a lot of efforts…
It is therefore necessary to prepare for the future. And between the departure of Diego Costa, the failed loan of Moussa Dembélé and the fact that Álvaro Morata is likely to continue at Juventus, the Rojiblancos must recruit. But beware of whom because, in his last years, there were many casting errors …
Jackson Martínez, Vietto, Raúl Jiménez, Leo Baptistao, Gameiro, Santos Borré, Saponjic, Kalinic… the list of scorers with very inefficient performance is long. And very expensive: since the departure of Radamel Falcao in 2013, author of 70 goals in 91 games at the club, Atlético has spent no less than… 315 million euros without ever really finding happiness! Only Mandzukic, Griezmann, David Villa or Diego Costa during his first season were at the expected level. But without combining long-term stability at the club and performance …
It will remain to be seen who will be the one who will manage to do it. Over the past few weeks and months, many names have popped up. Milik, Rafa Mir, Avila, Lacazette, Giroud… And recently, others like Dybala or Lautaro Martinez. In the case of names as important as that of the two Argentines, there would have to be a departure of a framework player for him (s) to arrive, still according to Mundo Deportivo.
