Atlético de Madrid's first signing for next season is already in Madrid. The brazilian Marcos Paulo has flown this half day from Lisbon to the Spanish capital to, in the coming days, close his signing for the rojiblanco club and put himself under Simeone's orders.
The Brazilian attacker will be one of the novelties in this particular preseason full of casualties, where, depending on its performance and the possible output of Vitolo could stay as a first team player for the whole season. If this does not happen, the idea of the club is to transfer it to a LaLiga team so that it can catch the rhythm of the Spanish LaLiga competition. The best placed for this assignment would be Celta and Cádiz.

Marcos Paulo, 20 years old, is not a forward as such, He is an attacker who performs well on the left wing, despite being right-handed. His great mobility and resources are a perfect complement for Luis Suárez and the rest of the forwards of the rojiblanco team, since it would generate many spaces. The Brazilian promises a lot of talent, who throughout the preseason will show whether or not he has the confidence of the coach.
