Premier League
Liverpool has started monitoring the situation of Marcos Llorente, considering that the player's contract with Atlético de Madrid ends next summer and that he could strengthen the right-wing of Andoni Iraola's team.
According to TEAMtalk, the British club's board is analyzing the player's contract situation. He is set to finish his legal ties with the Madrid-based team in June 2027, with competition from Chelsea, Manchester City, Bayern Munich, and FC Barcelona for his services.
Atlético de Madrid's negotiations with Marcos Llorente suitors
The 31-year-old player joined Atlético de Madrid in July 2019 from Real Madrid and earned 27 caps with the Spanish national team before retiring internationally after the World Cup held in the United States during summer 2026. His market value on Transfermarkt stands at €20.00 million.
Atlético de Madrid's board is in formal talks to extend his contract, hoping to reach an agreement before the year ends. However, the player's versatility to play in both the right-back position and the midfield has attracted interest from Liverpool and Chelsea for their sporting projects.
European competition led by Manchester City, Bayern, and Barcelona
The pursuits by Liverpool and Chelsea are complemented by Manchester City's monitoring in the Premier League. Likewise, Bayern Munich and FC Barcelona are gathering technical information to assess if the Spanish player will become a free agent at the end of the 2026-2027 season.
Despite the pressure from foreign clubs, the player's environment prefers to hear the contract extension proposal presented by the Cívitas Metropolitano leaders before engaging in negotiations with others. Atlético de Madrid's board plans to intensify discussions with Marcos Llorente's agents during the months of October and November 2026.
If the renewal talks do not materialize in the short term, Liverpool's board will be empowered to make an economic offer to the Spanish player for the upcoming season.
