Artem Dovbyk becomes once again one of the key names in the transfer market. Various reports from Italy suggest that the future of the Ukrainian international at Roma is far from guaranteed and that his situation is being closely monitored by several clubs in LaLiga. Among them are Villarreal, Real Betis, and Atletico Madrid, three teams looking to strengthen their attack and who could find an interesting opportunity in the striker if he eventually leaves the Italian side.

The 29-year-old forward arrived at Roma two years ago after a brilliant spell at Girona, where he won the LaLiga Pichichi Trophy with 24 goals. The Italian club made a significant investment to secure his services, paying around 30 million euros, but the attacker's performance has not completely convinced. Although he scored a reasonable number of goals in his first season, recent reports in Italian media indicate that the new sports project could lead to his departure if a convincing offer arrives.

Dovbyk interests Villarreal, Real Betis, and Atletico Madrid

The name of Dovbyk is linked to several Spanish teams that need to add a reliable striker before the transfer deadline.

Villarreal is exploring different alternatives to strengthen its offensive line. The lingering physical doubts surrounding Gerard Moreno and Ayoze Perez, along with the need to increase competition in the squad, make the profile of the Ukrainian international particularly attractive. His ability to play with his back to goal, dominate in the air, and finish inside the area aligns with what the Castellon team is looking for.

Meanwhile, Real Betis is also monitoring the situation closely. The green and white club has experienced significant movements in attack during the summer with the departures of Bakambu and Chimy Avila, leading them to continue scouring the market for a goal-scoring forward. Dovbyk's experience in Spanish football and his knowledge of the league clearly work in his favor.

The third team following the case is Atletico Madrid. At the Metropolitano, changes in the forward line are not ruled out if any of their attackers end up leaving. Both Alexander Sorloth and Julian Alvarez have been linked to various market scenarios in recent weeks, forcing the red and white sports management to keep various options open.

Villarreal seeks an established goal scorer

Villarreal's priority is to find a striker who can deliver immediate results. The need to compete in multiple competitions requires the Yellow Submarine to have top-level alternatives, especially considering the injury history of some of their forwards.

In this context, Dovbyk represents a low-risk proposition. His outstanding season at Girona showed that he can make a difference in LaLiga and become an offensive reference capable of exceeding twenty goals per season with continuity.

Beyond his statistics, the Ukrainian forward offers a highly valued profile in the market. Standing at 1.89 meters, he combines physical power with surprising mobility, excelling in his ability to attack spaces and draw defenders.

His prior knowledge of the Spanish league significantly reduces the adaptation period, which is crucial for teams requiring immediate results.

Atletico Madrid and Real Betis remain vigilant in the market

For Atletico Madrid, any moves depend on departures. If the squad remains intact, it's hard to imagine a pursuit for the Ukrainian international. However, a significant transfer could change the landscape entirely, placing Dovbyk among the candidates to strengthen the red and white forward line.

Meanwhile, Real Betis continues to explore different options to rebuild its attack. The sports management is engaged in multiple negotiations and is monitoring opportunities that may arise in the final weeks of the market.

On the other hand, Roma has no intention of letting go of one of its most expensive signings in recent years. The striker has a long-term contract, and any operation would require a substantial offer, likely close to 30 million euros, although the final price will depend on market developments.

Currently, there are no advanced negotiations with any of the three Spanish clubs, but the upcoming weeks will be crucial. Dovbyk remains a highly sought-after forward due to his experience, goal-scoring ability, and knowledge of LaLiga. Should he leave Italy, Villarreal, Real Betis, and Atletico Madrid emerge as three destinations with sufficient grounds to try to secure a striker who has already proven in Spain that he can excel at the highest level.
