Atlético de Madrid has redirected its focus towards Alexander Sorloth, the Villarreal forward, after the collapse of negotiations with Artem Dovbyk. Initially, Sorloth was Atletico's main target, and now, with talks with Dovbyk at a standstill, the Norwegian once again takes the spotlight at the Wanda Metropolitano.

Dovbyk, on the other hand, seems to have found a new destination in Roma, which is prepared to offer between 35 and 40 million euros to Girona to secure his signing. This move has left Los Rojiblancos in urgent need of finding a quality forward, with Sorloth emerging as the most viable option.

Atlético Madrid Pursues Alexander Sorloth

Villarreal, which previously stood firm on Sorloth's 38 million euro release clause, is now open to negotiate with Atletico, as reported by Relevo. This change in stance places the Madrid club in a privileged position to close the deal.

Despite the interest in Sorloth, Atlético also keeps an active radar for other possible signings. La Repubblica suggests that the club could consider options like Gonçalo Ramos or Randal Kolo Muani, currently at Paris Saint-Germain. However, given PSG's high transfer fees, it is unlikely that Los Colchoneros can afford a permanent transfer, leaning more towards a loan deal.

Another alternative that has surfaced in the last hours is Julián Álvarez from Manchester City. Marco Benito from El Chiringuito has reported that Atlético is optimistic about this possibility. However, City's demands, around 90 million euros, make this option less economically feasible for Los Rojiblancos.
