Vitolo will be a Getafe player next Monday or Tuesday

Vitolo will be a Getafe player next Monday or Tuesday. If nothing abnormal happens in the negotiations between Atlético, Getafe and the footballer himself, the winger will be one of the reinforcements of the Getafense team for the 2021-22 season. Getafe, like Atlético, begins training on the 7th and by then he must start training with those who will be his new teammates.

Atlético needs to get rid of the salary mass and Vitolo has a high profile with Atlético, club to which he arrived with the vitola of an important footballer. The player sees Getafe as a preferential option, since it is a very established team in the First Division and does not have to move from the capital of Spain. In addition, the Getafe coaching staff have indicated that he will be a protagonist in the team.

The problem is that both clubs have to solve the financial problems of an operation that is not simple. Vitolo ends his contract with Atlético in the summer of 2022, but the negotiations are talking about a loan. It will never be a termination of the contract with Atlético. Vitolo will play on loan for the South Madrid team. Míchel has been enthusiastic about the circumstance of being able to count on Vitolo.

For Getafe it is a category reinforcement, a quality player with a lot of experience in LaLiga. And he will arrive hungry, since he has lost the cache he had a few years ago. At 31 years old and with a market value of four million, it is almost the last chance to play at a high level. With Atlético he has played 15 games this season and a total of 454 minutes.

Simeone stopped counting on Vitolo in the second part of last season. The canary was able to go to Villarreal in the winter market, but in the end he did not do so and hardly played in the decisive stretch of the year. Now, with a year ahead, he knows that he will not have minutes with Cholo on the bench. To the rojiblanca squad we must add Rodrigo de Paul, a player who will be announced in the coming days. More competition in a very competitive Atlético squad where Vitolo no longer had a place.
