Sime Vrsaljko’s reasons for not renewing with Atlético

The contract between Sime Vrsaljko and the Atletico Madrid hurries his last days. The player will be free on July 1 to sign for the club of his choice and will not be the mattress team. The Balkan had a renewal proposal on the table, yes, downwards.

The physical problems of recent seasons, age, the economic situation of the Atletico Madridled the club to propose a proposal, yes, but not attractive enough for the player to give the ‘OK’.

Change Olympiacos, his more than likely destination (it would be very close according to the Hellenic media), for Atlético may seem like a bad sporting deal, but the reality is that the side has his reasons. This is how the newspaper explains it ‘Sports News’, which is supposed to handle the sensations of the player’s environment.

Vrsaljko I was very comfortable in Madridin the Atlético, as he himself had been in charge of commenting on several occasions. He hoped he could continue. The fact of having formed a very united group with Jan Oblak y Stefan Savic, also weighed on his initial desire. But the season has made him have to make a decision. Although it is true that during the past year he participated in 29 games, he only did so in 13 from the start.

His decision has as its main motivation his desire to be in the next Qatar World Cup. Vrsaljko you need to play. He returned to the Croatian national team after all the vicissitudes with injuries in the past. After the end of the course he barely played 45 minutes against Denmark in Copenhagen. But it is that before that, he was absent from the selection for almost a year. Until the clash against the Danes, his last appearance dated from last year in the European Championshipon June 18, at Hampden Park de Glasgowbefore the Czech Republic (1-1). From there, Vrsaljko he missed every game in the qualifying cycle for the world Cup. In that journey, colleagues like Josip, Juranovic y Stanisicthey have taken the lead in the decisions of the coach.

There are still five months to go before the football summit and the fight for a place on the list of Qatar enters its final period. Hence, the side needed minutes, needed to play regularly to be able to fulfill his dream and play his third world after those of Brazil y Russia.

CONTRACT

The other big reason has been the contract that Olympiacos has offered him. It is for two seasons, which gives it some stability in a project. And of course, with an interesting economic return for him once he was not going to charge what he charged in the Atlético.

Likewise, when he arrives as a free agent, he also finds himself with a bonus for his signing that compensates him somewhat for the loss of emoluments after leaving the Atlético.
