Atlético will receive about € 50M for this operation, which it will be able to reinvest to reinforce the attack, although it does not rule out reinforcing the core with another cash.

The two clubs are in constant contact so news is expected before the end of the week. Although it seemed that Saúl would continue under Simeone’s orders, his goodbye has a 95% probability of consuming itself in the next few days. So much so that Atlético has begun to probe the market in LaLiga to reinforce its midfield.
The footballer’s environment has confirmed that there are many options for the footballer to continue his career in the Premier League, although they have not wanted to reveal the destination team.
