Atlético Madrid has reactivated the negotiations to secure the services of Johnny Cardoso, a priority on Diego Pablo Simeone's list of reinforcements. The elimination in the Champions League and the recent setback against PSG have highlighted the need to renew the center of the colchonero midfield, and the Real Betis midfielder is once again a key name in the rojiblancos' plans.

Cardoso, 23 years old and American, was previously on Atlético's radar. However, discussions had cooled off, partly due to competition from Tottenham, which still holds a right of first refusal over the player. Now, with the pre-season on the horizon and no major signings finalized, Atlético has resumed talks with Betis with the intention of speeding up his signing.

Atlético Madrid wants to sign Johnny Cardoso

The player, who has been an important piece for Pellegrini at Betis, is highly regarded by Simeone, who seeks physical profiles with stamina and work capacity to strengthen the midfield. The Atlético sporting direction believes that the American can adapt perfectly to the demanding style of the Argentine coach.

Both clubs convey some optimism, although there are still details to be finalized to complete the transfer. The upcoming weeks will be crucial, as they aim to resolve this matter at the Metropolitano before competition increases for the player.

With a market still open and several adjustments pending, Atlético needs certainties. And Cardoso, due to his youth, potential, and ability to provide balance in the midfield, is seen as a strong bet. Negotiations are underway, and at the Wanda, they are confident that this time it will be definitive.
