La Liga
Atlético de Madrid has not taken their eyes off David Hancko, the center-back from Feyenoord, who was very close to wearing the red and white shirt during the last transfer window. Despite the Madrid club managing to secure the loan of Clement Lenglet to strengthen the defense, Hancko's name remains on the agenda of the team led by Diego Simeone for the future.
The Slovak defender was one of Atlético's main targets during the summer, even reaching an agreement with the player. However, Feyenoord's financial demands prevented the deal from being finalized. Despite the efforts of the sports management, salary restrictions and lack of consensus in the transfer thwarted the signing.
Next summer, they will go after Hancko again
With Lenglet as a temporary solution, the search for a reliable center-back will continue next summer, and Hancko remains one of the top options for the team, as reported by 'Eldesmarque'. The player's performance in the Eredivisie has caught the attention of several European clubs, making his potential arrival at the Metropolitano not an easy task.
Hancko himself acknowledged the complexity of the negotiations, although he made it clear that his decision was not based on financial reasons, emphasizing his commitment to Feyenoord. For Atlético, it will be a new battle next summer to try to secure the services of the coveted Slovak defender.
