Thiago Almada has become the next focus of the Atlético de Madrid market after the recent departures of Conor Gallagher and Giacomo Raspadori. The red and white club has lightened the squad, but now it needs to resolve a situation that is causing internal discomfort.

The Argentine has not found his place since arriving at the Metropolitano. His role has been minimal, and the feeling is that he does not fit into Diego Simeone's plans. Direct competition has blocked his path. Baena excels in attacking midfield, and ahead, Atlético has Julián Álvarez, Sorloth, and Griezmann, a tough barrier to overcome.

Thiago Almada does not convince Cholo Simeone

The sporting balance highlights the issue. Thiago Almada has featured in 17 official matches but has only played 619 minutes, a very low figure for a player of his profile. His stats are modest with two goals in the league, against Osasuna and Sevilla, along with a single assist, also against the Seville team.

The player knows he needs playing time to aim for the World Cup. Without minutes, his situation in the national team could seriously complicate. For this reason, his inner circle has already initiated contacts. As reported by AS, Thiago Almada's representative will travel to Madrid to talk with the Atlético board and expedite the Argentine's departure.

Atlético sets conditions after Gallagher and Raspadori

The sales of Conor Gallagher and Giacomo Raspadori have provided room for maneuver to the club, but that does not mean giving away assets. Atlético will not let Thiago Almada leave at any price. With a contract until 2030 and a market value close to 20 million, the club will only entertain offers that exceed that amount.

Interest is not lacking. Palmeiras and Flamengo are closely watching from Brazil, while several Premier League clubs are monitoring his situation, with Bournemouth in a good position.

A market less calm than expected

Atlético's planning has accelerated. In a few days, four footballers have left, reducing the squad from 24 to 20 players. Bucero and Alemany are working on reinforcements but also on resolving ongoing situations like that of Thiago Almada, which seems not to be the only pending issue.

Atlético needs to adjust their pieces for the second half of the season. After the departures of Gallagher and Raspadori, the club has decided to focus on finding a solution for Thiago Almada, a talent who has not managed to fit into Cholo Simeone's project.
