Atletico Madrid is turning to the Premier League to find a new player for their squad and their next target is Brighton’s Leandro Trossard.
The Belgian has been in fine form in recent campaigns and continues to show why he is one of the most underrated attackers around.
The likes of Arsenal and Chelsea also have an interest in his signature, but they will struggle to get him now that Atleti is in the picture.
His current deal expires at the end of this season, but Brighton can automatically extend it for another year, which could be the smart thing to do.
However, Matchplug understands if he wants to leave as a free agent, Atleti has positioned itself to clinch the Belgian’s signature.
The Premier League clubs will want to fight hard to sign him and a reunion with Graham Potter at Chelsea might interest him.
