Atletico Open to Defender Sales This Summer

Atletico Madrid will consider offers for three defenders this summer as part of their squad rebuild under new Sporting Director Mateu Alemany.

Atletico Madrid are set to listen to offers for Nahuel Molina, Clement Lenglet, and Jose Maria Gimenez this summer. Molina has struggled to meet expectations since his €20m move from Udinese, while Gimenez has reportedly agreed to a departure after the World Cup with interest from Argentina and Italy.

Lenglet's game time has decreased with the arrival of David Hancko and emergence of Marc Pubill. The Uruguayan international is in his fourth season and will enter the final year of his deal next season, making it possible that Atletico could cash in before he potentially leaves for free.
