Reinildo Mandava, new Atlético footballer

The signing of Reinildo Mandava for him Atletico Madrid. The mattress club announced late in the afternoon of the last day of the market the hiring of the side from the Little. The player finished his contract with the current Gallic champion, in the summer of 2022, so that since January 1 he could already negotiate with third parties.

And that’s what he did Atletico Madrid, ahead of a good number of European clubs. The Mozambican had proposals on the table France, England, Germany, Italy Y Spain. But he opted for the mattress proposal. The player was already last week in the capital of Spain to carry out the medical examination and sign a pre-contract.

We already say that the idea was for him to arrive free next summer but the matter has been brought forward because the Little he has understood that if he wanted to get some money, the only possibility was to do it in this winter market. After some push-and-pull negotiations in recent days, the agreement was reached hours before the winter market closed. Although the official figures have not transpired, there is talk of three million euros for the player, who signs until 2025.

Simeone had long demanded a replacement on the left side that would give competition to Renan Lodi and above all that he had a more markedly defensive profile than that of the Brazilian. that is precisely Reinildo Mandava who signs with him Athletic for the next three and a half years.

A GOOD DEFENDER

He is a very strong player, with a great distance, very physical and we already said, more defender than attacker but also with a good ability to reach the opposite area. Of course, what is surprising for the number of times he goes up is that he is not a too centering side, at least it was not in France. Be that as it may, the player had the recognition of the rest of the footballers in the neighboring country, who chose him as the left winger of the last championship, including him in their starting eleven.

Being Mozambican, he will not occupy a non-EU position thanks to what is known as Cotonou Agreement, which allows players from most African countries not to count as foreigners when competing in LaLiga.
