Atlético is not ready yet! The 2 signings they need to win LaLiga

Atlético de Madrid has been one of the protagonists of the summer transfer market, strengthening several key areas of the field with top-level players like Álex Baena, Thiago Almada, and Dávid Hancko. However, despite these significant moves, within the club, they are clear that two essential reinforcements are still missing if the team truly wants to compete for the title against giants like Real Madrid and FC Barcelona: a creative midfielder and a winger with dribbling skills.

The departure of Rodrigo de Paul to Inter Miami and Pablo Torre's physical issues have left an obvious gap in the Atleti midfield. Diego Simeone knows that he needs a player capable of creating plays from the middle, someone with vision, precision, and the ability to lead the team's rhythm. The Metropolitano offices are already considering several profiles for that role, all with an associative and offensive style, but no final decision has been made yet.

Simultaneously, the sports management is also looking for an attacker who can break through defenses from the wings, a natural dribbler who can unlock stalemate games. This type of player has been a priority for months, and despite Ademola Lookman's seemingly promising option, Inter Milan's involvement in the negotiations changed the scenario and distanced the player from Atleti's orbit.

The planning is not finalized, and the club remains very active. There is still time in the calendar and room in the squad, so it is possible that there will be progress on both fronts this week. With a midfielder providing clarity and a winger creating disparity, Simeone would have a much more complete squad capable of competing head-to-head for the Spanish championship. Atlético has already achieved a lot, but it still needs that final push.
