Rodrigo de Paul, Argentine midfielder for Atlético de Madrid, is going through a challenging period in his time at the red and white club. At 30 years old, the player is at the center of criticism from fans, who have singled him out as one of the culprits for the team's difficult situation. Despite arriving with high expectations and a contract valid until 2026, fluctuations in his performance and lack of consistency have strained his relationship with the Atleti supporters, potentially leading the club to seek his departure in the coming months.
Rodrigo de Paul, on the way out
De Paul has been a key figure in midfield, known for his intensity and ability to regain possession, but this season his performance has not convinced. The truth is that he has always performed at a higher level for the national team than with the colchonero club. Pressure from the stands and the need for results have caused the Argentine to lose the backing he once had, especially after the recent defeats and disappointing team displays. In this scenario, Atlético might consider a sale in the upcoming summer transfer window to generate revenue from his transfer and restructure the squad with players who better suit the current requirements.
The midfielder has shown flashes of quality in some matches, but his lack of consistency has been an issue that Simeone has not been able to address. With a squad that needs adjustments to meet the demands of the season, De Paul's departure could allow the Madrid team to strengthen in other areas. His unquestionable experience and talent could be valued in other markets, although his continuity at Atlético appears increasingly uncertain.
If this trend continues, the club would aim to finalize a transfer that, besides being financially beneficial, would ease tensions between fans and the team. The next transfer window could be crucial in determining the future of the Argentine and the direction of Atlético.
