Arezo, another bet for the future

Atlético is very happy with what they have, but they don't stop looking at how to strengthen their squad. Vlahovic liked in summer and is still on the agenda, although he has meddled with Juventus. And on the rojiblanco radar there is also Matías Arezo, one of the great jewels of South America. The Serbian de la Fiore is 21 years old and the Uruguayan, still 18. Two stars of the present and, above all, a lot of future those that Atleti intends to catch in the coming months. First of all, the young man from River Plate.

Atlético has not stopped monitoring Matías Arezo. The forward shows enormous potential in each game and increases his performance as the weeks go by. This season takes 13 goals in 19 games, some are beautifully made, and more and more clubs are watching him, but the footballer appreciates that the interest of the rojiblancos comes from afar and the figures that They estimate in Uruguay around 10 million euros.

“I know of Atlético's interest, there is no doubt, they are one of the teams that love them. They are a powerful, defining player. It is a Luis Suárez style, with some different characteristics, but with a very good punch and that he knows how to move very well in the area “, Leo Rumbo, sports director of River Plate de Montevideo, confessed to AS in April, where he revealed another key:” In addition to the language, a plus is the protection you can have there “, in relation to Uruguayans there is (Giménez, Suárez, the Profe …) and there have been in the club. In sports management they understand what the profile gives.

If you sign in January, on loan to River or to Europe

Atlético's plan is do not accelerate the growth of Arezo, which is now in a very favorable context in your country. But the suitors lurk. That is why the rojiblanco club does not want to be overtaken and in Uruguay they affirm that the operation will materialize already next January, even if I decide later leave him on loan or find him a first team in Europe. Matías Arezo is trading higher and is another of Atleti's future bets, perhaps the heir to Suárez in the team and in the national team. If the rojiblancos tie the Uruguayan and Vlahovic, Simeone will have scorers for many years.
