Atlético de Madrid is determined to close two key signings during this transfer market to improve their performance next season. After a campaign in which the team led by Diego Pablo Simeone was eliminated from all major competitions at the end of March, the rojiblanco board wants to strengthen the squad with players who bring more competitiveness and freshness.

One of the main objectives is Álex Baena, the talented 23-year-old attacking midfielder who shines at Villarreal and has caught Atlético's attention. However, negotiations have not been easy as the yellow club has stood firm in its position and does not consider accepting players as part of the deal. Villarreal demands a high figure to let go of their young star, complicating the progress of the operation.

Theo Hernández, the most complicated signing

On the other hand, the Madrid-based team also aims for the return of Theo Hernández, the left-back from AC Milan who has sparked growing interest at Atlético. Despite Atlético presenting an offer close to 17 million euros, the Italian club considers that amount insufficient to part ways with one of their most prominent players, valuing him at around 50 million.

Despite these difficulties, the signing of Theo Hernández continues to gain strength in Atlético's planning, seeing the Frenchman as an ideal profile to reinforce their defense and provide offensive contribution on the left flank. Meanwhile, the negotiation for Álex Baena remains a top priority as the club seeks a reinforcement that can make a difference in attack.

Ultimately, Atlético is working to finalize both transfers and make a qualitative leap that will allow the team to compete with guarantees in all competitions next season.
