Villarreal is already moving decisively in the face of what seems inevitable: the departure of Álex Baena. In this scenario, the Castellon club wants to secure two strategic signings to maintain the competitive level of its squad. Rodrigo Riquelme and Alberto Moleiro are the names highlighted by the board, both fitting into the future plan that Fernando Roig has initiated to strengthen the team in case their creative reference bids farewell.

Baena, with a contract until 2028 and a release clause valued at 60 million euros, is the prime target of Atlético de Madrid. The Andalusian attacking midfielder has piqued Simeone's interest, seeing him as an ideal reinforcement due to his tactical intelligence, intensity, and ability to take on leading roles. While a formal offer has not yet been finalized, discussions are progressing, and Villarreal is already working on a potential operation that could involve Riquelme as part of the deal.

Villarreal Wants Rodrigo Riquelme and Alberto Moleiro

The young Atletico winger, with a versatile profile and eager for quality minutes, is highly admired at La Cerámica. His arrival would help soften the blow of losing Baena without compromising the team's footballing identity. Villarreal's intention is to include him as part of the deal and thereby adjust the total transfer fee.

Simultaneously, Alberto Moleiro represents the other key move. The Las Palmas player, regarded as one of the most promising talents in the country, could land in Vila-real if negotiations accelerate. His potential and quality align with the team's style, and the chance to acquire him for a reduced fee following his club's relegation makes him a market opportunity. The Yellow Submarine is gearing up to act swiftly and not lose ground in a Champions League that demands ambition.
