Two of the names of the moment, as far as the transfer market is concerned, are Harry Kane and Saúl Ñíguez. The striker has asked to leave Tottenham and Chelsea, Manchester United and City are trying to balance their accounts to launch for the English star. The midfielder, for his part, is closer than ever to leaving Atleti, as AS has been reporting.
Both the one and the other share suitors, United and Chelsea without going any further, so It is still curious that Kane 'envies' an attribute of Saúl's football arsenal. “Pogba's skill, Reus's fantastic free-kicks, Saúl's perfect driving, Piatek's intuition and Donnarumma's wingspan”, was the answer slipped by the captain of the Three lions, who recognized that these would be the characteristics that he would like to have in his personal arsenal.
Saúl's season has not bordered on the level of other of his teammates, but Simeone has always shown plenty of confidence in him. In fact, his versatility has made him a starter in 30 of the 41 games he has played, among all competitions. Their statistics have lost packaging with previous seasons, as can be seen in the graph of BeSoccer, but continues to be one of the Spanish footballers with the largest market with 55 million, for Transfermarkt. Mind you, far from its peak of 90, reached in October 2018.
Saúl's last three seasons with Atleti.
