Atlético de Madrid has set out to strengthen its squad for the upcoming demanding season, with a particular focus on the Club World Cup to be held this summer in Los Angeles. The red and white team, which has already secured its place in the revamped international tournament, aims to have their new signings ready as soon as possible and is working to finalize three top priority transfers approved by Diego Simeone.

According to sources close to the club, the mattress makers are actively negotiating the arrivals of Cristian Romero (Tottenham), Álex Baena (Villarreal), and Miguel Gutiérrez (Girona), three profiles that fit perfectly into the Argentine coach's scheme and would reinforce key areas of the team.

'Cuti' Romero:

Cristian Romero, a central defender with character and authority, is a direct request from Simeone, who believes his Premier League experience and combative profile align perfectly with Atlético's style.

Álex Baena:

Regarding Álex Baena, his ability to arrive from deep positions and his quality in creation have caught the attention of the coaching staff. For several days now, there has been back and forth between clubs, with reports suggesting that there might be a tentative agreement in place; however, his transfer could rise up to 50-60 million euros.

Miguel Gutiérrez:

Lastly, Miguel Gutiérrez emerges as a present and future option for the left-back position, an area that requires more depth following uncertainties with Reinildo and Lino.

Negotiations with the respective clubs are well advanced, and at the Metropolitano, there is confidence in finalizing the three transfers in the coming weeks. The goal is to have these players registered in time for the Club World Cup, allowing them to compete as integral members of the squad.
