Carlos Soler will leave PSG: Atlético de Madrid is going for his signing

Atlético de Madrid is interested in signing Carlos Soler, a midfielder from PSG who is not in Luis Enrique's plans and is looking to leave the club, as reported by Fabrizio Romano.

Just a few days before the transfer market closes, the Atletico Madrid team is considering the possibility of incorporating him either on loan or through a transfer depending on the economic demands of the French club.

Atletico seeks solutions in midfield

Diego Simeone believes that Carlos Soler could fit into the double pivot rotation, where he currently has Johnny Cardoso, Pablo Barrios, Koke, and Conor Gallagher. The latter raised doubts in the LaLiga debut, in the loss against Espanyol, and the Argentine coach wishes to add a different profile to have more tactical options.

The 27-year-old Spaniard offers experience in high-demand contexts and the ability to adapt to different schemes, something that Atletico needs to balance its midfield in a season marked by tough competition.

A challenging period at PSG

Soler arrived at Paris Saint-Germain in 2022 after his outstanding performance at Valencia CF but never managed to establish himself as a starter. In his first year, he alternated between starting and being on the bench, scoring 2 goals and providing 3 assists in 34 official matches.

Last season, he was on loan at West Ham United, where he played 31 Premier League matches, scoring a goal and assisting once. Nevertheless, his return to Paris did not change his secondary role, and PSG has decided to include him in the list of transferable players alongside Marco Asensio and Randal Kolo Muani.

Carlos Soler Looking for a New Team

Carlos Soler currently has a value of 18 million euros, an affordable amount for several top clubs. PSG aims to reduce the wage bill, and Atletico appears as an attractive destination, although Real Sociedad is also following his steps in search of a creative midfielder.

Journalist Fabrizio Romano hinted that both a transfer and a loan are open options: "PSG has already informed Soler that he must leave, and negotiations with Spanish clubs are progressing."

The midfielder is primarily considering returning to LaLiga or staying in the Premier League, where he has already made an impact. Apart from Atletico, there are other interested parties in Spain, but Simeone seems to view him as the piece that can enhance ball circulation in tight matches.

Soler is seeking a project where he can regain regular playing time: "I need a club that gives me minutes and trust, that's my biggest desire right now," he recently expressed in an interview.

With just ten days left in the transfer window, Carlos Soler's departure from PSG seems almost certain. Atletico Madrid is carefully analyzing the operation, aware that it could strengthen its squad with a player who still has much to prove. It would be an interesting signing, also considering the player's potential return to the league where he showcased all his talent with Valencia CF.
