Atletico Madrid is expected to continue to spend in the last weeks of the transfer window prior to the 2025/26 season.
Diego Simeone splashes the money this summer, while in 2025/26 he wants to build a real challenge for Barcelona and Real Madrid.
Los Rojiblancos finished third last season in La Liga -the eighth time that they ended up behind the El Clasico pair under Simeone's leadership -with Captain Koke who called on the renewed team to change that in 2026.
Simeone has already spent an estimated € 159 million on nine new faces this summer, but he also starts to earn back funds through sale, where Samuel Lino completes a relocation of € 22 million to Flamengo.
The club also exercised their buy back clause on Santiago Mourino and then immediately sold it to Villarreal for a win.
Among the newcomers in Madrid, two players have broken the € 30 million figure, as Alex Baena and Johnny Cardoso renew the midfield of Simeone.
However, the club may have to dig deeply again before the end of August, with reports from Diario as claim that Simeone wants to bring in Napoli Voorwaarts Giacomo Raspadori.
Italy International Raspadori has been a consistent performer in Naples after his permanent switch from Sassuolo in 2023.
12 goals in two seasons, as a flexible forward option, has convinced Simeone that he can be an alternative to top scorer Julian Alvarez in the Spanish capital.
With a contract in Naples until 2028, however, securing an exit will not be easy with its current side that quotes an asking price of € 30 million plus € 5 million bonus.
Atletico Madrid initially asked initial questions, but they strive for € 25+5m at this stage, because they remain on the trail of Stuttgart attacker Enzo Millot that could be available for € 20 million.
