The Atlético de Madrid has started monitoring Wesley, 23 years old, with the aim of strengthening the team's full-backs in the upcoming transfer windows. The latest transfer rumors of Atlético de Madrid place them in search of an attacking full-back for the next season.

According to a report published by 442, the club's board is analyzing the signing of the AS Roma player, although the Italian club's asking price of 55 million euros is the main financial obstacle to the negotiation.

Wesley's performance at AS Roma and competition from Arsenal

The 23-year-old defender played 80 minutes on September 10th in the 1-1 draw of AS Roma against Fenerbahçe in the Champions League, reaching a top speed of 34.51 km/h and an 85% passing accuracy (34 successful passes out of 43 attempted). The player's performance was watched live by Arsenal scouts in Istanbul.

Having been capped 8 times by Brazil, he joined the Italian team in July 2025 from Flamengo, completing his first season in Serie A with 29 matches and 5 goals. His current market value on Transfermarkt is 40.00 million euros, with Inter Milan and Chelsea also keeping a close eye on his situation.

Wesley's tactical fit at Atlético de Madrid after Molina's departure

Atlético de Madrid's interest in the player is not only due to the void left by Nahuel Molina, who was transferred to AS Roma on August 12, 2026 after playing 181 matches, scoring 9 goals, and providing 17 assists in Madrid. Diego Simeone already has Marc Pubill and Marcos Llorente in that position, who started as first-choice on the right side on September 9th against Liverpool.

The Brazilian wing-back's distinctive quality lies in his ability to perform on both sides of the field. Under Gian Piero Gasperini's guidance, the player evolved tactically to attack the goal from either the left or right flank, offering Atlético's coaching staff an option to interchange positions without altering the defensive system's structure.

The AS Roma board holds control over the player's future with a contract running until June 30, 2030. Atlético de Madrid executives plan to send scouts to assess the wing-back during the Italian league matches in October 2026 before deciding whether to make a formal offer for the 55 million euros demanded by the Italian club.
