Atletico targeting defensive line reinforcements

Diego Simeone currently has problems with his defensive line as Mario Hermoso remains the only player who can play on the left in the centre of defence, but Atletico plan to work on that in the summer transfer window.

According to a report from Relevo, the Los Colchoneros are targeting the signing of Nottingham centre-back Forrest Murillo, who only moved to England from Corinthians last summer.

It is reported that the Foresters could be prompted to sell the player by the financial fair play stalemate, which has already led to potential sanctions for the club.

The same source adds that there is no interest in Hermoso, but recall that earlier it was reported that there was interest in Mario from Juventus of Turin, who could sign the player for free, as his contract with Atlético is valid until the summer of 2024.
