Atletico Madrid, Spanish top flights biggest spenders – La Liga Special
This will come as a surprise to many. Atletico Madrid lead La Liga teams as the big spenders. Los Rojiblancos have dished out around 60 million Pounds on new players and are in the transfer market to increase the total with Espanyol’s Dani http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Osvaldo-c28821 being
the subject of their latest interest.
Atletico Madrid were supposed to make a major outlay in the transfer market as they look to reinforce their squad after the departures of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-c33030 Aguero, and they have not disappointed. The aforementioned players were important
first team players who are now playing their trade in other parts of Europe. Their departures have left the thrifty club with cash to spare and they have made considerable disturbances with their actions.
Atletico have brought in nine new players, of which three have come on free transfers and one is a loan deal. Five players worth sixty million – sounds more like either one of Real Madrid or http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604.
Los Rojiblancos have managed to outshine their illustrious league opponents in the money game as they put up a competitive team to challenge their duopoly.
Looking at the additions to Gregorio Manzano’s side, it is evident that the reinforcements have been made with careful thoughts given to everyone of them. The central defence has been bolstered by the addition of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Paulo-c29431 on a
free transfer. For seven million Pounds, Portuguese international Silvio has been brought in to add depth at the right-back position.
Ruben Micael and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vicente-c36001 Calderon for a whooping 10 million
Pounds. The youngster has been getting rave reviews for his outings with the national team, prompting Atletico to sign him.
However, it has been the attacking third where Atletico have managed to catch the headlines. Spain’s U21 European Championships hero, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Adrián-López-c3736, joined the dressing room early in the transfer window on a free transfer. He will be partnered in attack with
FC Porto’s Europa League saviour, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Radamel-Falcao-c30276. The Columbian international arrives in the Spanish capital commanding a fee of 40 million Euros plus 7 million Euros in potential add-ons. This makes the twenty-five year old the most expensive player in the
club’s history.
As Falcao heads into the dugout at Vicente Calderon, Atletico are preparing themselves to part company with another South http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan, who want to add him for
the outgoing Samuel Eto’o.
The transfer of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 as well and Atletico will have to fight the
Romans if they want to add him to their roster.
Los Rojiblancos has revamped their squad thanks to the sales of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 de Gea and Sergio Aguero. They now have a squad that can match the quality of their opposition and realize the wishes of UEFA Champions League participation.
