Atletico Madrid may find a late solution for their selection filemmas at the front. Norwegian attacker Alexander Sorloth was brilliant from the bank last season, but could be a late departure from the Metropolitano this summer.
However, the Norwegian attacker is thought that it has a greater role this season, after last year to have played the third violin for Julian Alvarez and Antoine Griezmann. Allegedly, Sorloth was not doing well when he was not alone on the couch in front of their league -opener, but only received a handful of minutes as their fifth change against Espanyol.
According to Craig Hope on DM, Newcastle United has discussed a move for Sorloth. They hope to go through a deal for Brentford's Yoane Wissa, but can also look to add a second attacker. With wolves who want to hold Larsen on Jorgen Stranden, Sorloth can be an alternative to the Magpies.
Diego Simeone has generally preferred having a goalkeeper, or at least a physical attacker in his team, and he wouldn't have that without Sorloth. Given his accident with his playing time, Atletico is open to a deal. The word in recent weeks is that Los Colchoneros wants to reclaim the € 32 million that they spent to him last summer to let him leave. Villarreal also has a clause of 20% sales and the deal could rise in variables by another € 8 million.
Sorloth is a player who has not generated a shortage of debate in the Metropolitano, with some uncertain about the idea of ​​bringing in a striker of his age (now 29) for big money, and even more if he is not a guaranteed starter. That said, he had the best goals to play relationship in La Liga last year and took 24 goals in 54 performances – his 20 in the competition made him their top scorer in the domestic competition.
