According to Spanish outlet สมัคร ufabet, Kieran Trippier has advised Conor Gallagher to accept a move to Atletico Madrid. Diego Simeone is keen to strengthen his midfield this summer, with Gallagher one of his top targets. Atletico
sporting director Andrea Berta wants to sign Gallagher, with the England international expected to cost around €25m.
However, Simeone is keen on signing Miguel Merino, with Real Sociedad valued at €30m, and both have one year left on their contracts. Trippier,
who used to play for Atletico Madrid, has advised Gallagher to move to the Wanda Metropolitano. During their time in the England camp at Euro 2024,
Gallagher has reportedly quizzed Trippier about life under Simeone, with the 33-year-old full-back playing there between 2019 and 2022. Trippier made 86 appearances for Atletico, providing 11 assists and winning La Liga in 2020/21.
Diego Simeone Reveals Atlético Madrid Clear Out Incoming This Summer
Atlético Madrid brought the curtain down on a mixed 2023/24 campaign on Saturday. Following elimination from the Copa del Rey in the semi-finals and from the Champions League in the quarter-finals, in addition to the club’s lowest finish in La Liga since 2012.
Major changes are expected within the squad this summer, with long-serving players like Stefan Savić and Saúl Ñíguez being tipped for exits. While even heavyweights like Jan Oblak have been linked with a possible departure. That is in addition to Mario Hermoso. Whose contract is set to expire, and Álvaro Morata, who bid farewell to fans at the Estadio Cívitas Metropolitano ahead of what seems an inevitable move.
Coach Diego Simeone has not shied away from the size of the challenge that lies ahead for the club. Who will look to rejuvenate the squad with younger talent more similar in profile to that of Arthur Vermeeren. Who arrive in January. It marks a substantial shift from the previous policy which saw veterans like César Azpilicueta picked up on free transfers and bargain deals last summer.
