**Atlético de Madrid** has become one of the main protagonists of the **summer transfer market**, managing to make a great revolution in their attack with the signings of **Thiago Almada, Álex Baena**, and **Giacomo Raspadori**. **Diego Pablo Simeone** will have multiple options to compete for titles.

More options for all of Simeone's systems

The rojiblanco squad now has profiles capable of adapting to both a 4-4-2 and a 4-2-3-1 formation. Almada and Baena offer quality and vision to play on the left wing or as an attacking midfielder, while Raspadori adds the possibility of playing as a second striker or forward in a double attacking reference.

To this trio, significant names are added such as **Julián Álvarez**, **Antoine Griezmann**, **Giuliano Simeone**, and **Alexander Sorloth**, forming a varied offensive front with alternatives for every match situation.

An attack with talent and versatility

Julián Álvarez, an undisputed star, can act as the lone striker or a support in the second line. Sorloth, on the other hand, is the clearest choice to play as a fixed striker, while Griezmann remains a valuable asset for the attacking midfield and Giuliano Simeone retains his role as the starter on the right wing, with the option of Marcos Llorente as a substitute.

Thiago Almada, with his ability to deliver penetrating passes and link up in short plays, promises to be key in connecting with the forwards. Álex Baena will bring a final pass and assists, improving the number of chances created. Raspadori, although raising some doubts, can be a useful piece in various positions in the attacking front.

An Argentine partnership that excites

One of the most attractive points for fans is the prospect of seeing Almada and Julián Álvarez replicate the chemistry shown in the Argentine national team. Both players complement each other well and could become a decisive offensive weapon for Atlético.

The arrival of these players not only enhances the team's quality but also opens the door to more frequent changes in the system, something that Simeone has begun to implement in recent seasons.

Contenders to fight for LaLiga

With this new attack, Atlético de Madrid positions itself as a serious contender to compete for the **LaLiga** title. While Real Madrid and Barcelona have stronger overall squads, the variety of offensive profiles in red and white could make the difference in tight matches.

The 2025/26 season presents a major challenge for Simeone, who now has a squad with much more talent and a powerful rotation in attack to better compete compared to last season. Will he be able to achieve it?
