UEFA Champions League
The Atlético de Madrid is clear that its midfield needs a quality boost to reverse the irregular performance shown in the current season. In the quest for alternatives to strengthen its defensive scheme, the red and white board has set its sights on three specific names: Samu Costa, Luis Milla, and Ismael Bennacer.
Following the recent defeat against Real Betis in La Liga, as well as the stumbles in the Champions League against Benfica and Lille, Atlético acknowledges that the midfield is an area to reinforce. Although the club made a considerable effort in signings during the summer, with notable investments like Alexander Sorloth, Robin Le Normand, and Julián Álvarez, it seems that depth and stability in the midfield remain a pending area. That's why attention has been drawn to options both within and outside of Spain.
Atlético Needs New Midfielders
Samu Costa, currently playing for RCD Mallorca, is one of the domestic bets, bringing youth and defensive ability that Simeone values. Luis Milla, from Getafe, is another option with experience in La Liga, although his cost could be a point to negotiate. As for Bennacer, AC Milan's player, his recovery and adaptation to Atlético's demands make him a strong candidate for the winter market, although the terms of his potential loan could complicate his arrival.
With just two victories in their last eight games, Atlético sees these additions as an opportunity to revitalize their game in the second half of the season and compete for the goals set in national and international competitions.
