20-year-old http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Viana joined the Europa League champions last year and it seems that the midfielder is attracting interest from the Ligue 1 giants
La Liga side Atletico Madrid won the Europa League once again at the expense of Athletic Bilbao. The likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tiago-c35032 guided the club to glory.
However, the Spaniards are going through some tough financial times and would be forced to let go of the aforementioned stars if things don’t pan out well in the summer.
However, Los http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Indios-c39565 should not be worried about the future of the club considering the plethora of talent their academy has. Last year, in September 2011, At Madrid signed David Viana. The young midfielder of Franco-Portuguese origin is currently playing
for Madrid’s reserve team but has impressed manager http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Diego-c11058 Simeone who regularly invites him to participate in the practise sessions with the first-team.
The Lusitanian has already represented http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984 at Under 17, 18 and 19 levels and left RC Strasbourg when the Alsace club was relegated to Ligue 2.
After impressing on a trial in Maritimo last August, the youngster caught the eye of a scout from Atletico Madrid who convince David Viana into joining the club.
Reports now claim that Madrid are looking to offer him a new contract. This season, Viana has scored three goals and provided seven assists for the reserves.
However, it appears that Atletico Madrid will have a lot of problems in order to hold on to the gifted midfielder. Ligue 1 giants, LOSC Lille are keeping a close eye on the player’s progress and have many times scouted him.
The youngster is very comfortable on the ball and is good in one-on-one situations, something Rudi Garcia admires a lot.
Newly-promoted Ligue 1 side Stade de Reims and recently-relegated side http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/AJ-Auxerre-c38247 are also interested in David Viana which means that the 20-year-old could be spoilt for choice come the summer transfer window.
Furthermore, Viana is now looking to play regular first-team football which would also play a huge part in his final decision regarding his future.
Rudi Garcia considers the player a future star and could consider signing him as a replacement for Manchester-bound http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Eden-Hazard-c11863.
