Atlético continues to probe the market looking for a scorer to fill the gap left by Diego Costa. There are many names, but few convince Cholo and the sports management. The Milik option does not advance and according Sky Sports, the club has noticed Willian José, from Real Sociedad. The 29-year-old forward has liked him for a long time, but everything would depend on the economic issue.
The rojiblanca entity does the math and looks for a low-cost battering ram, that is, either free (practically impossible) or an assignment. In addition, for the coaching staff it is an advantage that whoever arrives is a footballer who knows the League and the language. Bakambu (29 years old), who was at Villarreal, is another option on the agenda. As well Raúl de Tomás (26), from Espanyol, although in this case economically it is a very complicated operation.
Willian José alternates starts with Isak at the top of Real Sociedad, although it is losing relevance within the team. He has played 885 minutes and has scored four goals. With everything, the Brazilian has intended to leave in previous market windows and the club has also valued his transfer. Tottenham and Sevilla are among those who were closest to taking him. But even so, mid-season, the Real would not give away one of its assets.
On the other hand, the plan Milik still stagnant. Naples does not give any facility and, according to reports from Italy, De Laurentiis has recently rejected offers from Atlético and Marseille of between 6 and 8 million euros. Despite the fact that the footballer does not count and ends his contract in June, the southern Italian club does not give its arm to twist and does not plan to lower its price in this market.
