Atlético follows Issa Diop

It is not the first time that his name has flown over Atlético's future plans. The one of Issa Diop, French with Senegalese nationality of 23 years and 1.94 of height, who militates in West Ham. With the present frozen by the coronavirus crisis, the rojiblanco club does not stop thinking about what is coming, beyond the resumption of competitions when the crisis passes. And one of those names is once again Issa Diop, according to the English press. The center-back is being one of the great sensations of the Premier League this season.

He has played 2,226 minutes, 26 games, and has scored three goals. Undisputed, stands out for his physique and his forcefulness in the cut and in the aerial ball and would serve Simeone to prop up a defense that this season trembles in some games with set pieces, when it rains lateral centers. And that has Felipe, his best signing of the summer, who cuts every ball that flies over the area, but does not reach everyone, it is impossible, and he is 30 years old.

Diop's are seven less. His physique is overwhelming. It imposes. And Cholo seeks that for the next Atlético in a line that, although now stable, has also suffered injuries throughout this season, with the losses for months and games of Giménez, called to be the head of defense without Godín, and de Savic.
